Design Highlights
Operation
• High efficiency: 84% at 85 VAC (with 50 ˚C external
ambient temperature)
The design utilizes a TOP249Y in a flyback converter
providing a 70 W output in a sealed enclosure at an external
ambient of 50 ˚C. Line UV and OV (100 V and 450 V,
respectively) are implemented using a single 2 MΩ resistor
(R1). Undervoltage eliminates power-up/down glitches and
overvoltage provides line transient and long duration power
system surge protection. Resistor R10 programs the internal
current limit to 75% of nominal at the UV threshold. As a
function of input voltage the current limit is further reduced
by R9 to provide approximately constant overload power.
The larger TOPSwitch-GX selection reduces conduction
losses,raisingefficiency(withoutcircuitchangesorincreased
overload power) and permits a higher inductance design for
reducedprimaryRMScurrents,furtherincreasingefficiency.
• Low component count and high power density, 7 W/in.3
• Very compact design (4.1 in. × 2.225 in. × 1.06 in.)
• No surface mount components required
• Low zero load power consumption, <370 mW at 115 VAC
• Approximately constant overload power with line voltage
• Line undervoltage detection (UV) and overvoltage (OV)
shutdown
• LowEMI-switchingfrequencyjitterhelpsmeetCISPR22B/
EN55022B limits
• Fully protected for overload, short circuit and thermal faults
