Data Sheet
28101
These devices are specifically designed to meet the requirements
for increased integration and reliability in off-line flyback (STR-S6401)
and forward (STR-S6401F) converters operating in a fixed-frequency
PWM mode. Each device incorporates the primary control and drive
circuits with an avalanche-rated power MOSFET. Crucial system
parameters such as switching frequency and maximum duty cycle are
fixed during manufacture. The STR-S6401 and STR-S6401F differ only
in their maximum duty cycle. Control circuit decoupling and layout are
optimized within each device.
Cycle-by-cycle and average-current limiting, soft start, undervoltage lockout with hysteresis, and thermal shutdown protect the
device during all normal and overload conditions. The performance and
reliability of these devices, and their variable-frequency counterparts,
has been proven in substantial volume production.
The requirements of high dielectric isolation and low transient
thermal impedance and steady-state thermal resistance are satisfied in
an over-molded, 9-pin single in-line power package. Similar off-line
switching regulators, with output ratings to 800 V at 5 A, are also
available.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
WARNING —
These devices are designed to be operated at lethal voltages and energy levels.
Circuit designs that embody these components must conform with applicable safety requirements.
Precautions must be taken to prevent accidental contact with power-line potentials.
Do not connect grounded test equipment.
The use of an isolation transformer is recommended during circuit development and breadboarding.
The power MOSFET outputs of these devices are similar to the International Rectifier type IRFP448. These devices
feature an excellent combination of fast switching, ruggedized device design, low on-resistance, and cost effectiveness.
Recommended mounting hardware torque:
4.34 - 5.79 lbf•ft (6 – 8 kg•cm or 0.588 – 0.784 Nm).
Recommended metal-oxide-filled, alkyl-degenerated oil base, silicone grease:
Dow Corning 340, or equivalent
