Power Integration’s LinkSwitch-TNZ is now available at Braemac. The LinkSwitch-TNZ is a transformative family of ICs that seamlessly integrate power consumption with lossless AC zero-crossing signal generation – essential for system clock and timing functions.
This groundbreaking solution delivers unparalleled flexibility, surpassing traditional discrete implementations by reducing component count by over 40%. With the LinkSwitch-TNZ, developers can anticipate more efficient designs that achieve over 80% accuracy in low-power flyback designs. Plus, its best-in-class light-load efficiency empowers various functions to remain active during system standby, including displays, wireless connectivity, and sensors.
The LinkSwitch-TNX supports a range of converter topologies including buck, buck-boost, and flyback that meet diverse application requirements. For high-power applications, the optional inclusion of an X-capacitator discharge function not only reduces PCB space but also minimizes the BOM count and enhances reliability. Say goodbye to bleed resistors with the LNK331x variant that reduces no-load consumption in white goods by up to 1W.
Experience ±3% regulation across line and load, alongside minimal no-load consumption of less than 30mW with external bias, all while maintaining an IC standby current of less than 100µA.
