To do so, the device provides pin 9 (PFC_STOP): it is an open collector output, normally
open, that is asserted low when the IC is idle during burst-mode operation. This signal will
be externally used for switching off the PFC controller and the pre-regulator as shown in
Figure 27 When the L6599 is in UVLO the pin is kept open, to let the PFC controller start
first.
