Overview

The VIPER12ADIP-E is an offline swithmode power supply (SMPS) primary switcher that integrates a dedicated current mode PWM controller with a 730V power MOSFET. Designed for low-power applications up to 13W, it operates at a fixed 60kHz switching frequency and features a high-voltage start-up current source to simplify circuit design by eliminating the need for an external start-up resistor.

Why Choose This Part

It offers significant board space savings by integrating the high-voltage MOSFET and controller into a single 8-DIP package. The device includes robust protection features such as automatic restart for overvoltage and overtemperature conditions, along with an wide VDD supply range of 9V to 38V that allows for flexibility in auxiliary winding design.

Applications

Battery Charger Adapters
Ideal for compact wall-plug adapters for mobile devices and portable electronics.
Standby Power Supplies
Used in TVs, monitors, and large appliances to provide efficient low-wattage auxiliary power.
Non-Isolated Buck Converters
Suitable for low-cost, non-isolated DC output stages in industrial controllers.
Smart Home Appliances
Provides power for microcontrollers and sensors in connected home devices.

Getting Started

To design with the VIPER12ADIP-E, follow the STMicroelectronics application notes for flyback or buck topologies to calculate the transformer or inductor requirements. Ensure adequate heat sinking through the GND pins (pins 1 and 2) to the PCB copper for optimal thermal management up to the 150 degree Celsius limit.
