The LinkSwitch-CV dramatically simplifies CV power supply design with tight CV requirements and by eliminating an optocoupler and secondary control circuitry. The device introduces a revolutionary control technique to provide very tight output voltage regulation, along with input voltage variations and temperature.
The device incorporates a 700 V power MOSFET, a novel On/Off control state machine, a high voltage switched current source for self biasing, frequency jittering, cycle-by-cycle current limit and hysteretic thermal shutdown circuitry onto a monolithic IC.
Dramatically Simplifies CV Converters
Eliminates optocoupler and all secondary CV control circuitry Eliminates bias winding supply – IC is self biasingAdvanced Performance Features
Compensates for external component temperature variations Very tight IC parameter tolerances using proprietary trimming technology Frequency jittering greatly reduces EMI filter cost Even tighter output tolerances achievable with external resistor selection/trimmingAdvanced Protection/Safety Features
Auto-restart protection reduces delivered power by <95% for output short circuit and all control loop faults (open and shorted components) Hysteretic thermal shutdown – automatic recovery reduces power supply returns from the field Meets HV creepage requirements between Drain and all other pins, both on the PCB and at the packageApplications
