AC DC converters have become increasingly important to the electronics industry. The ZPSA6048 is a high-performance member of the AC DC converter family, and its widespread application in the industry makes it one of the most commonly used converters. Here, we will discuss the application field and working principle of the ZPSA6048.

The ZPSA6048 is a monolithic integrated controller which provides wide-ranged control of both AC and DC supplies. The wide ranging power supplies it controls are designed for both AC/DC and DC/DC operating conditions. The operating frequency range for the AC and the DC signals is 500Hz to 60kHz, and the input and output voltages span from 40V to 400V. The converter also features fast current and voltage sensing which reduces the turn-on and turn-off times, as well as overshoot phenomena. The maximum load current and power rating are 60 amps and 24kW, respectively.

In terms of application field, the ZPSA6048 converters are widely used in power electronics, such as HVDC systems, industrial power supplies, and solar power inverters. Several selected ZPSA6048s are also applied in switched mode power supplies (SMPS). Besides its stable performance across a wide range of input and output voltage, the ZPSA6048 also offers a cost-effective solution for SMPS applications while providing excellent light load efficiency.

The working principle of the ZPSA6048 converter is also an important aspect to consider, as it ultimately determines the converter’s performance. The control method employed by the ZPSA6048 is a full-bridge buck-boost converter. It utilizes two infrared LED (IRED) devices, two transistors connected in common emitter configuration, and a control circuit that controls the current flowing through the IRED devices and the transistors. The integrated circuit on the ZPSA6048 consists of the main control circuits, two voltage droop controllers (VDROPs), two voltage difference controllers (VHVs), and two current sense amplifiers (CSA)s. The CP3M and CP4M modules are used for the VDROPs and VHVs, respectively. These modules must be tuned carefully in order to ensure that the converter operates in its designated operating range.

The control and sensing signals, which are generated by the various integrated circuits, are applied to the transistors and IRED devices to control the power conversion process. The transistors act as current-controlled switches for the buck and boost operation. The IRED devices, which are connected in parallel with the transistors, sense the voltage across the transistors, and their intensity is adjusted according to the voltage difference between the output and the input. In this way, the voltage across the transistors is kept to a minimum and an optimal power conversion efficiency is achievable.

In summary, the ZPSA6048 is a highly efficient and reliable monolithic AC/DC converter. It is widely used in many applications, such as HVDC systems, industrial power supplies, and solar power inverters. The converter operates through a full-bridge buck-boost conversion method, and this is implemented by the combination of IRED and transistors. By tuning the VDROPs and VHVs modules, the converter can be optimized for the most efficient power conversion.
