Description
An offline SMPS (Switched-Mode Power Supply) primary switcher refers to a power supply circuit or IC that operates directly from the AC mains input (offline) and serves as the primary-side switcher in the SMPS topology. The primary switcher is responsible for regulating the energy flow from the input to the output of the power supply.
The primary switcher in an offline SMPS typically uses a high-voltage power transistor or a MOSFET (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor) to perform the switching operation. It operates at high frequencies to minimize the size and weight of the transformer and other passive components.
The VIPER22A combines a dedicated current mode PWM controller with a high voltage Power
MOSFET on the same silicon chip. Typical applications cover off line power supplies for
battery charger adapters, standby power supplies for TV or monitors, auxiliary supplies for motor
control, etc. The internal control circuit offers the following benefits:
(1) Large input voltage range on the VDD pin accommodates changes in auxiliary supply
voltage. This feature is well adapted to battery charger adapter configurations.
(2) Automatic burst mode in low load condition.
(3) Overvoltage protection in hiccup mode. […]
