The NXP analog product development boards provide an easy-to-use platform for evaluating NXP products. The boards support a range of analog, mixed-signal and power solutions. They incorporate monolithic integrated circuits and system-in-package devices that use proven high-volume technology. NXP products offer longer battery life, a smaller form factor, reduced component counts, lower cost and improved performance in powering state-of-the-art systems.

This page will guide you through the process of setting up and using the TEA2206DB1583 demo board.

1.1 Kit Contents/packing List

The TEA2206DB1583 contents include:

  • Assembled and tested board in an anti-static bag

1.2 Additional Hardware

In addition to the kit contents, the following hardware is necessary or beneficial when working with this kit.

  • AC power source, electronic load and digital power meter

2.1 Board Features

  • Elimination of forward conduction losses of the diode rectifier bridge
  • Very low IC power consumption (2 mW)
  • Directly drives two rectifier MOSFETs
  • Very low external part count
  • Integrated X-capacitor discharge (2 mA)
  • Self-supplying
  • Undervoltage lockout (UVLO)
  • Drain-source overvoltage protection for all external power MOSFETs
  • Gate pull-down currents at start-up for all external power MOSFETs

2.2 Board Description

The TEA2206T is an active bridge rectifier controller for replacing the two low-side diodes in the traditional diode bridge with MOSFETs. Using the TEA2206T with low-ohmic high-voltage external MOSFETs significantly improves the efficiency of the power converter as the typical rectifier-diode forward conduction losses are reduced by 50%. Efficiency can improve up to about 0.7% at 90 V (AC) mains voltage. The TEA2206T is fabricated in a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) process.

2.3 Board Components

The TEA2206DB1583 demo board consists of the TEA2206T in an SO8 package with two MOSFETs (600 V; 28 mΩ) and four diodes (600 V; 20 A). The following figure shows the front side of demo board.

3.1 Configure Hardware

The TEA2206DB1583 demo board contains two 600 V, 28 mΩ MOSFETs and four 600 V, 20 A diodes. It makes the board suitable for universal AC input and output power applications of several hundreds of watts. The TEA2206DB1583 demo board contains four leads that can easily replace a traditional diode bridge. The inner two leads are connected to AC main lines. The outer two leads are connected to positive and negative rectified voltages. These four leads are pin-to-pin with typical bridge-rectifier diodes pins.

The following figure shows the difference between bridge diodes and active bridge configurations.
