L4981AD Power Factor Corrector for Loveminer A1 PSU
The L4981AD is a power factor correction (PFC) controller IC designed for the Loveminer / Aixin A1 power supply. It delivers active PFC up to 0.99 power factor, with universal input mains regulation and line current distortion below 5% — restoring full power-quality compliance on rebuilt A1 PSUs.
Integrated MOSFET gate driver, voltage reference, error amplifier, undervoltage lockout, current sensing and soft-start simplify the boost-stage layout. Two variants exist: L4981A fixed-frequency and L4981B modulated-frequency for optimised input-filter size.
Typical Failure Modes Solved
PFC failure / no DC bus voltage — high-voltage rail at primary stage stays low or zero.
Power factor out of spec — A1 PSU pulls dirty current after a transient event.
Soft-start fault — PSU trips on inrush at every restart.
Production refurbishment — bulk IC stock for A1 rebuild lines.

FAQ — L4981AD PFC Controller
Q: L4981A vs L4981B — which version? A: L4981A runs fixed-frequency; L4981B modulates the frequency to shrink the EMI input filter. For OEM-spec A1 repair, match the original part marking.
Q: Symptoms of a dead PFC controller? A: No high-voltage DC bus after rectifier stage, PSU stays in standby, or the unit trips on inrush. Probe gate drive on the boost MOSFET to confirm no switching activity.
