Figure 44. Interface circuits that let the L6563/A switch on or off a PWM controller
If this is not the case or it is not possible to achieve a start-up delay long enough (because
this prevents the DC-DC stage from starting up correctly) or, simply, the PWM controller is
devoid of soft start, the arrangement of
the voltage generated by the PFC stage reaches a preset value. The technique relies on the
UVLO thresholds of the PWM controller.

Another possible use of the RUN and PWM_STOP pins (again, in systems where the PFC
stage is the master) is brownout protection, thanks to the hysteresis provided.
Brownout protection is basically a not-latched device shutdown function that must be
activated when a condition of mains undervoltage is detected. This condition may cause
overheating of the primary power section due to an excess of RMS current. Brownout can
also cause the PFC pre-regulator to work open loop and this could be dangerous to the PFC
stage itself and the downstream converter, should the input voltage return abruptly to its
rated value. Another problem is the spurious restarts that may occur during converter power
down and that cause the output voltage of the converter not to decay to zero monotonically.
For these reasons it is usually preferable to shutdown the unit in case of brownout.
