Part No. LNK304GN

Introduction:

Link Switch-TN is specially designed to supplant all linear and capacitor-fed (cap dropper) non-isolated power supplies in the below 360 mA output current range at equal system cost while extending much higher performance and energy efficiency. Link Switch-TN devices integrate a 700 V power MOSFET, oscillator, simple On/Off control scheme, a high-voltage switched current source, frequency jittering, cycle-by-cycle current limit.

 

Features:

  • Low Down cost and component count buck converter solution
  • Fully integrated auto-restart for short-circuit and open loop fault safety – saves external element costs
  • LNK304 uses a streamlined controller without auto-restart for very low system cost
  • 66 kHz operation with precise current limit – allows low cost off-the-shelf 1 mH inductor for up to 120 mA output current

Working:

As with any power supply layout, all Link Switch-TN models should be tested for proper functionality on the bench. The subsequent minimum tests are recommended:

  1. Sufficient DC rail voltage – check that the minimum DC input voltage does not fall below 70 VDC at maximum load, minimum input voltage.
  2. Proper Diode Selection – UF400x series diodes are recommended only for designs that operate in MDCM at an ambient of 70 °C or below. For designs operating in continuous conduction mode (CCM) and/or higher ambientes, then a diode with a reverse recovery time of 35 ns or better, such as the BYV26C, is recommended.

When all conditions are satisfied diode must operate in CCM and DCM Mode.

 

 

Applications:

  • Daily Appliances
  • Light emitting diode drivers
  • Control of industrial devices
  • Timers of different circuits.
