General Description
The Supertex LR645 is a high input voltage, low output
current linear regulator. It has a 3-terminal xed output voltage
version available in TO-92, TO-220 and SOT-89 packages, as
well as an adjustable voltage version available in an 8-lead
SOIC package. The 3-terminal version functions like any
other low voltage 3-terminal regulator except it allows the use
of much higher input voltages. When used in a SMPS startup circuit, it eliminates the need for large power resistors. In
this application, current is drawn from the high voltage line
only during start-up. Only leakage current ows after start-up,
thereby reducing the continuous power dissipation to a few
milliwatts.
The adjustable voltage version allows trimming of the output
voltage from 8.0 to 12V. This version can also be connected
to an external depletion mode MOSFET for increased output
current. When used in conjunction with Supertex depletion
mode MOSFET DN2540N5, an output current of up to 150mA
is achieved.

LR645: SMPS Start-Up Circuit
One of the main applications for the LR645 is a start-up
circuit for off-line switch-mode power supplies (SMPS), as
shown in Figure1. A minimum output capacitance of 0.01µF
is recommended for stability. The wide operating input voltage range of the LR645 allows the SMPS to operate and
start-up from rectied AC or a DC voltage of 15 to 450V without adjustment.
During start-up, the LR645 powers the VCC line of the PWM
IC with a nominal output voltage of 10V. The auxiliary voltage
connected through a diode to the VOUT pin of the LR645 will
start to increase. When the auxiliary voltage becomes larger
–
+
GATE
GND
than the output voltage the LR645 turns OFF its internal high
voltage input line and output voltage, allowing the auxiliary
voltage to power the VCC line of the PWM IC. The input
current drawn by the LR645 from the high voltage line after
start-up will therefore only be leakage current of the internal
MOSFET switch, which is typically 0.1µA.
The 3-terminal version shown in Figure 1 has load regula-
tion guaranteed from 0 to 3.0mA at a xed nominal output
voltage of 10V. Applications requiring higher output current
and/or a different output voltage can use the 8 pin adjustable
version.

LR645: High Current SMPS Start-Up Circuit
The 8 lead version of the LR645 has connections for an external depletion-mode MOSFET for higher output current and
external resistors for adjustable output voltage. As shown in
Figure 2, the output current is increased to 150mA by using
the Supertex 400V depletion-mode MOSFET DN2540. The
maximum operating input voltage will be limited by the drainto-source breakdown voltage of the external MOSFET, but
cannot exceed the 450V rating of the LR645.
The output voltage can be adjusted from 8 to 12V with 2 external resistors, R1 and R2. The ratio of R2/R1 determines
the output voltage. R2 is connected between the V
TRIM pins. R1 is connected between TRIM and GND pins.
Figure 5 is a curve showing output voltage versus resistor
ratio R2/R1. The optimum range for R1 + R2 is 200KΩ to
300KΩ. This minimizes loading and optimizes accuracy of
the output voltage. Figure 5 uses an R1 + R2 of 250KΩ.

LR645: Off Line Linear Regulator
Circuits requiring low voltages to operate logic and analog
circuits benet from the LR645. The conventional use of
step down transformers can be eliminated, thereby saving
space and cost. Some examples of these applications are:
proximity controlled light switches, street lamp controls, and
low voltage power supplies for appliances such as washing
machines, dishwashers, and refrigerators.
The wide operating input voltage range of 15 to 450V as well
as the ripple rejection ratio of 50dB minimum allows the use
of a small, high voltage input capacitor. The input AC line can
be either full-wave or half-wave rectied. A minimum output
capacitance of 0.01µF is recommended for output stability.

Figure 3 shows the LR645 as a pre-regulator to a precisionregulator for high precision regulation. Higher output current is also possible by using an external depletion-mode
MOSFET DN2540N5 as shown in Figure 4.
Power Dissipation Considerations
The LR645 is a true linear regulator. Its power dissipation istherefore a function of input voltage and output load current.
Forexample, if the LR645 is providing a continuous load current of 3mAat 10V while its input voltage is 400V, total dissipation in the LR645 will be:
P
= (VIN - V
DISS
= (400V - 10V) x (3.0mA + 150µA)
= 1.23 Watts
The 1.23 watts is for continuous operation. This is within the
dissipation capabilities of the TO-220 and SOT-89 packages. See the thermal characteristics chart on page 2 for deratings. For SMPS start-up applications, the output current is
usually required only during start-up. This duration depends
upon the auxiliary supply output capacitor and C
typically a few hundred milliseconds. All package types of
the LR645 have been characterized for use with a C
least 10µF, and an AC line of 277V.
