Fairchild Introduces FPS Green Mode Power Switch Device with Integrated Protection Circuitry

Power Channels: Power Components

Switch mode power supply (SMPS) designers need space-saving, cost- effective power supply solutions with high energy efficiency, optimized system performance and improved reliability. To help meet these design complexity challenges, Fairchild Semiconductor has developed the FSL206MRx integrated Pulse-Width Modulator (PWM) controller.

Part of the FPS™ Green Mode Fairchild power switch device family, the FSL206MRx series is designed for high-performance offline SMPS that require minimal external components. The highly integrated PWM controller with avalanche-rugged SenseFET includes an internal regulator, eliminating the need for an auxiliary bias winding and includes a built-in high-voltage startup and full-protection circuitry that saves board space and total bill of material (BOM) costs.

Optimized for efficiency and power dissipation with burst-mode operation, the FSL206MRN and FSL206MRL can reach a power loss of 150mW with no-bias winding and 25mW with bias winding at no-load condition when the input voltage is 265Vac. Additionally, the FSL206MRx series is supported by Fairchild’s Power Supply WebDesigner (PSW), an easy-to-use, powerful online design tool that allows designers to further customize and fine-tune their designs without having to build a bench prototype.

Features and benefits include:

-- Precision fixed operating frequency: 67kHz

Opinion: Unraveling the Ultra-Low Power Design Issues

-- Frequency modulation for attenuating electromagnetic interference (EMI)

-- Built-in soft-start and startup circuit prevents transformer saturation

-- No need for auxiliary bias winding

-- Low under voltage lockout (UVLO)

-- Ultra-low operating current: 300µA

-- Separated high- and low-voltage pins to avoid creepage

-- Various protection features: OLP, OVP, AOCP, TSD and LS for higher reliability

The units are priced (1,000 quantity pieces) as follows: FSL206MRL (LSOP-8) at $0.56; FSL206MRN (DIP-8) at $ 0.48; and FSL206MRBN (DIP-8, Option for burst-mode level) at $ 0.56. Delivery is 8-12 weeks ARO.

Energy Efficiency with Class D Amplifier Modules

Class-D switching amplifiers are helping audio designers create personal multimedia devices and home audio/visual systems that demonstrate how compact and stylish equipment can also deliver high sound quality and high audio output power. The key to this breakthrough, providing freedom from the large and bulky boxes housing traditional audio products, lies in the class-D amplifier’s high energy efficiency, which is typically around 90%. This allows designers to reduce or eliminate heatsinks as well as using smaller-sized PCBs and smaller components such as transformers, connectors and power supplies.

The Role of Hall Effect Sensors in Power Distribution Infrastructure

Power distribution units (PDUs) form an essential part of modern computing and data communications hardware. They provide multiple outputs for transferring electrical power with maximum efficiency, controlling the power capacity and safeguarding against the possible causes of supply interruption. With an ever increasing need from tech savvy consumers for higher data throughput and greater quantities of data storage capacity, as well as tough international legislation now governing CO&sub2; emissions, the demands being placed on these units are proving challenging for engineering teams to satisfy.
