The VIPER32DIP-E from STMicroelectronics is a high-performance, low-power offline converter that integrates a PWM controller and an 800 V avalanche-rugged MOSFET. Designed to deliver a compact and robust power supply solution, this device is ideal for a wide range of applications, including adapters, chargers, and stand-by power supplies for consumer electronics, as well as industrial power supplies.
Key Features
- High Voltage Capability: The device features an 800 V avalanche-rugged power section, enabling it to handle surges and providing enhanced reliability for applications subject to high voltage transients.
- Energy Efficient: The VIPER32DIP-E operates with extended quasi-resonant mode when the load decreases, which reduces the switching frequency and minimizes the switching losses, leading to excellent efficiency levels.
- Advanced Protection Features: It includes multiple protection features such as overvoltage protection, overload protection, thermal shutdown, and hysteresis overtemperature protection, ensuring safe operation under abnormal operating conditions.
- Low Standby Power Consumption: The device is designed to meet the most stringent energy-saving standards, with very low consumption under no-load conditions, making it suitable for applications that require compliance with energy-saving regulations.
- Minimal External Components: The high level of integration simplifies the design and minimizes the bill of materials, which can lead to cost savings and a reduction in the size of the power supply.
