1 General description
The TEA2017ABT is a digital configurable LLC and PFC combo controller for highefficiency
resonant power supplies. It includes the LLC controller and a PFC controller
that works in DCM/QR mode. The TEA2017ABT enables building a complete resonant
power supply which is easy to design and has a very low component count. The
TEA2017ABT comes in a low profile and narrow body-width SO16 package.
The TEA2017ABT digital architecture is based on a high-speed configurable hardware
state machine ensuring very reliable real-time performance. During the power supply
development, many operation and protection settings of the LLC and PFC controller
can be adjusted by loading new settings into the device to meet specific application
requirements. The configurations can be fully secured to prevent unauthorized copying of
the proprietary TEA2017ABT configuration content.
In contrast to traditional resonant topologies, the TEA2017ABT shows a very high
efficiency at low loads due to the LLC low-power mode. This mode operates in the power
region between continuous switching (also called high-power mode) and burst mode.
Because the TEA2017ABT regulates the LLC output voltage of the system via the
primary capacitor voltage, it has accurate information about the power delivered to the
output. This measured output power defines the mode of operation (burst mode, lowpower
mode, or high-power mode). The transition levels of the operating modes can be
easily programmed into the device.
The TEA2017ABT contains all protections like overtemperature protection (OTP),
overcurrent protection (OCP), overvoltage protection (OVP), overpower protection (OPP),
open-loop protection (OLP), and capacitive mode regulation (CMR). Each of these
protections can be configured independently and accurately by programming parameters
inside the device.
The device contains both a low-voltage and high-voltage silicon technology for highvoltage
start-up, integrated drivers, level shifter, protections, and circuitry assuring zerovoltage
switching.
The TEA2017ABT/TEA2095T combination gives an easy to design, highly efficient, and
reliable power supply, providing 90 W to 500 W, with a minimum of external components.
The system provides a very low no-load input power (< 75 mW; total system including the
TEA2017ABT/TEA2095T combination) and high efficiency from minimum to maximum
load. This power supply meets the efficiency regulations of Energy Star, the Department
of Energy, the Eco-design directive of the European Union, the European Code of
Conduct, and other guidelines. So, any auxiliary low-power supply can be omitted.To enhance readability, only typical values are given in this document, except in the
parametric tables (Section 9, Section 10, and Section 11). If values in the text differ from
the values for the same parameter in the parametric tables, the values in these tables are
leading.

2 Features and benefits
2.1 Distinctive features
• Complete functionality of a PFC and LLC controller in a single small-size SO16
package
• Integrated high-voltage start-up
• Integrated drivers and high-voltage level shifter (LS)
• High-side driver directly supplied from the low-side driver output
• Accurate boost voltage regulation
• PFC that works in DCM/QR mode
• Integrated X-capacitor discharge without additional external components
• Power good function
• PFC jitter for optimized EMI performance
• Excellent power factor (PF) and total harmonic distortion (THD), as the PFC current
compensates for the input filter current
• Several parameters can easily be configured during evaluation with use of the
graphical user interface (GUI), like:
– Operating frequencies to be outside the audible area at all operating modes
– Soft start and soft stop in burst mode, reducing the audible noise
– Accurate transition levels between operation modes (high-power mode/low-power
mode/burst mode)
– Enabling/disabling the lower power mode
