Active PFC controller in CCM — BOM-fit note
The ICE2PCS02GXUMA1: The 11 V to 25 V supply range covers the auxiliary rail from a universal AC-DC bulk capacitor without an external linear regulator, simplifying the bias supply. The 450 µA startup current is low enough to be drawn from the bulk capacitor's charge-up resistor, keeping standby losses minimal.
Switching frequency and thermal envelope
The fixed 65 kHz switching frequency sets the EMI filter corner and the boost inductor core size — a common sweet-spot that balances magnetics volume against switching losses in a 100-300 W PFC stage.
