Biricha PLD

Design stable analog and digital power factor correction stages in minutes!

This fantastic software allows the user to design Continuous Conduction Mode Boost PFC power stages in minutes. The user simply selects digital or analog implementation, other general specification and the software will then automatically calculate the appropriate component values and control loop components/digital coefficient for this design. The analog implementation is based Texas Instruments’ industry standards UCC3819/UC3852 family of PFC ICs and the digital implementation will provide all necessary control loop coefficients.    At any stage the user can change the component values away from those automatically calculated by PLD and enter the actual component value used in their design.

From power stage component selection to poles, zeros and controller coefficients; our advanced PFC design software, will greatly simplify your design whilst still keeping you in control at every stage of the process.

PLD has been designed as the ultimate toolbox for the power supply design engineer.

  • Designs and stabilises analog and digital PFC control loops in minutes
  • Automatically calculates poles and zeros as well as component values 
  • Sophisticated control algorithms stabilise analog and digital PFCs 
  • Stable voltage loop, current  loop and Voltage Feedforward design in both analog and digital domains​.

PLD control panel allows you to quickly design your PFCs control loops, feedforward and power stage components.

​Key Features

  • Fully automated and fully customizable designs: you are always in control
  • Automatically selects compensator poles and zeros to achieve your specified crossover frequency and phase margin
  • Easily switch between default calculated values and customized user defined values
  • Automated analog controller design for voltage loop, current loop and first order and second order analog VFF filter down to component level
  • Calculates digital controller coefficients for voltage loop, current loop and digital voltage feedforward filter
