MC33262 Power Factor Controller IC – DIP-8

Description

The MC33262 is an active power factor controller (PFC) integrated circuit specifically designed for use in power supply converters. It is widely used to bring power consumption into compliance with regulatory requirements by forcing the input current to track the sinusoidal shape of the AC line voltage, thereby achieving a near-unity power factor.

This controller utilizes a critical conduction mode (CRM) architecture, which helps minimize switching losses and improves overall efficiency in high-power applications. It is an essential component in modern power supply designs to reduce harmonic distortion and improve system stability.
