INTRODUCTION
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
•
Dual precision regulators for SMPS voltage and
current control
IN-PLUG® IPS20 & IPS21 Integrated Circuits are
low-voltage current sensing feedback controllers used
in Switch Mode Power Supplies to control load-side
current and voltage. They have been designed to limit
the power dissipated in the sensing circuitry for high
output current applications that require current
limiting. They also provide excellent loop stability
and superb transient response. They both incorporate a
4V shunt regulator for maximum flexibility to power
the chip.
•
•
•
•
•
•
Output currents up to 50A
Output voltage down to 1.2V
54mV or 100mV current sensing voltage
1.19V voltage reference
Operates with grounded optocoupler
4V shunt regulator for VCC supply
APPLICATIONS
•
Fast chargers for power tools and other
applications
The IPS20 and IPS21 only differ by the characteristics
of the current sensing references.
•
•
•
Battery eliminators
Industrial and bench-type power supplies
Distributed power systems
The IPS20 incorporates a trimmed 54mV reference
with a positive temperature coefficient which closely
matches that of a PCB copper trace. This copper trace
sensing method can be used inexpensively with very
low associated power losses.
PIN CONFIGURATION: DIP-8 / SOIC-8
The IPS21 incorporates a temperature compensated
100mV reference for more conventional resistors.
Both controllers feature the same voltage regulator
section with a trimmed temperature stable voltage
reference of 1.19V. This allows the output voltage of
the SMPS to be set to any value down to about 1.2V.

The IPS20 and IPS21 are suitable for any SMPS and
any make of SMPS controllers, including flyback,
forward, PFC and DC/DC solutions.
These flyback controllers work best in complement
with the IN-PLUG® family of IPS1x flyback
controllers, IPS10x PFC controllers and IPS20x Push-
Pull controllers.
