1 Description

The iW3671 is a single-stage high-performance AC/DC primary-side-regulation PWM controller with power factor

correction (PFC). It is designed to support flyback and buck-boost topologies at output power levels up to 100W.

The iW3671 supports different types of loading including constant power (CP) loads such as a second-stage DC/DC

converter; and constant resistance (CR) loads such as LED light strips.

The iW3671 uses Dialog’s PrimAccurate™ technology to provide accurate constant voltage (CV) and constant

current (CC) regulation across AC line and load conditions. The digital control eliminates the need for external

loop compensation while maintaining stability across all operating conditions. With Dialog’s patented PF-Boost

TM

technology, the iW3671 can achieve power factor (PF) greater than 0.9 and total harmonic distortion (THD) less than

20 at 50 or greater loading and across the entire AC line voltage range.

The iW3671 can achieve less than 150mW standby power loss while keeping excellent load transient response in CV

mode. In addition, there is no audible noise during load transient or during startup, which is a typical shortcoming of

most PFC CV controllers. Startup time is less than 0.25s with active startup circuit and advanced startup control in the iW3671.

The iW3671 also features various protections such as output over-voltage, output short-circuit, AC over-voltage, AC under-voltage, current-sense-resistor short, over-current and over-temperature protections. This ensures great system reliability.
