Off-line high voltage converters
SO16 narrow
Description
The device is an off-line converter with an 800 V
rugged power section, a PWM control, two levels
of over-current protection, overvoltage and
overload protections, hysteretic thermal
protection, soft-start and safe auto-restart after
any fault condition removal. Burst mode operation
and device very low consumption help to meet the
standby energy saving regulations.
Advance frequency jittering reduces EMI filter
cost. Brown-out function protects the switch mode
power supply when the rectified input voltage
level is below the normal minimum level specified
for the system. The high voltage start-up circuit is
embedded in the device.
