    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.

    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.

    2.4 Additional board support

    Refer to UM11491, TEA2206DB1583 active bridge rectifier controller demo board user manual for additional details on the featured components.

    Configure the 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.

    The following figure shows an example of the TEA2206DB1583 demo board mounted on an NXP Semiconductors TEA2016DB1519 demo board.
