1. Get started

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 TEA2208DB1576 demo board.

1.1 Kit Contents/packing List

The TEA2208DB1576 contents include:

  • Assembled and tested TEA2208DB1576 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
  • Use NXP standard demo boards, TEA2016DB1519 or TEA1916DB1262 together (optional)

2.1 Board Features

  • Forward conduction losses of the diode rectifier bridge are eliminated
  • Very low IC power consumption (2 mW)
  • Integrated high-voltage level shifters
  • Directly drives all four rectifier MOSFETs
  • Very low external part count
  • Integrated X-capacitor discharge (2 mA)
  • Self-supplying
  • Full-wave drive improving total harmonic distortion (THD)
  • Undervoltage lockout (UVLO) for high-side and low-side drivers
  • Drain-source overvoltage protection (OVP) for all external power MOSFETs
  • Gate pull-down currents at start-up for all external power MOSFETs

2.2 Board Description

The TEA2208T is an active bridge rectifier controller, which replaces the traditional diode bridge. Using the TEA2208T with low-ohmic high voltage external MOSFETs, significantly improves the efficiency of the power converter as the typical rectifier diode forward conduction losses are eliminated.

Additionally, the TEA2208T incorporates an X-capacitor discharge function. This demo board contains a TEA2208T and four low-ohmic high voltage MOSFETs.

2.3 Board Components

The TEA2208DB1576 demo board consists of the TEA2208T in an SO14 package with four MOSFETs of 600 V/28 mΩ.

3. Configure Hardware

The demo board contains four 600 V/28 mΩ MOSFETs. It makes the board suitable for universal AC input (100 V to 240 V) and for up to 1 kW as reference. The TEA2208DB1576 demo board contains four leads that can easily replace a traditional diode bridge. The two inside leads are connected to AC mains lines.

The two outside 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 an example of a TEA2208DB1576 demo board mounted on an NXP Semiconductors TEA2016DB1519 demo board.
