  1. Power Factor Correction in Switch Mode Power Supplies Using the SiC Schottky Diode

  2. Team • Team Leader • Robin Kelley • Team Members • Travis Brignac • Clinton Livingston

  3. Abstract • Design a switch mode power supply with a new power factor correction circuit, which implements the SiC Schottky diode. • Issue Application Note detailing use of the SiC Schottky diode in power factor correction

  4. Motivation • Current power supply technology, uses Si pn junction diodes. • These Si pn junction diodes create reverse recovery current problems within the power factor correction (PFC) circuitry • SiC Schottky diode will eliminate reverse recovery current in PFC circuitry

  5. Comparison: Si pn vs. SiC Schottky • Reverse biased pn junction diode does not turn off fast enough during switching • This is due to the removal of excess carries from the depletion region • Causes reverse recovery transient

  6. Comparison (cont.) • SiC Schottky diodes do not need to remove excess carries from the depletion region • Eliminates reverse recovery transient.

  7. Implementation • Switch mode power supply industry is extremely vast • Need one specific application for implementation of new PFC circuitry • Electronic Ballast will be used for implementation

  8. System / Hardware 120V AC

  9. Design Constraints • Power Factor Correction circuit operation of 100kHz • Smaller passive components • More efficient circuitry • Operation in Continuous conduction mode • Reduced EMI problems • EMI Filter operational at 100kHz • DC-AC Inverter operation at 100kHz • As frequency increases lamp efficiency increases

  10. Design Constraints • Ballast must operate below IEC 1000-3-2 Class C harmonic limitations of 30% • Meet power loss and efficiency factor of 87% seen in current ballast design • Product will operate according to North American 120V/60Hz operation

  11. Design Constraints • Operating Temperature range of –20º to 50 º C • Product will not exceed standard electronic ballast measurements of 8.3” x 2.22” x 1.6” • Develop application note for use of the SiC Schottky diode

  12. Testing Specifications • Software • P-Spice - used to layout original circuit design and run initial simulations • Orcad Layout Plus – used to layout board design for circuitry • Hardware • O-scope – used to plot waveforms of voltages and currents to determine correct operation of each stage of circuitry, detect noise and transients. • Digital Multi-meter- used to measure and insure correct voltage and current levels • Thermo-couple- used to measure operating temperature of circuitry

  13. Testing Specifications

  14. Current / Future Work • Finalizing component sizing and selection • Working on circuitry design • P-Spice Simulations to complete design

  15. Project Deliverables • Electronic ballast with operational PFC circuitry using the SiC Schottky diode, redesigned EMI filter, and Inverter based on an operating frequency of 100kHz. • Applications Note detailing the entire design process of the project and promoting the use of the SiC Schottky diode in power factor correction.

  16. Acknowledgments • Thank You to Dr. Michael S. Mazzola, our advisor, for his guidance and input. • Thanks to Jim Gafford, Dr. Joseph Picone, Bill Buchanan and Wey Beng for their support
