Power Integrations' motor control solutions

The LinkSwitch families of ICs are low power offline switchers that incorporate both a high-accuracy controller and high voltage MOSFET into a single low pin-count package. LinkSwitch devices use simple ON/OFF controllers, which are highly suitable for applications where light-load/no-load efficiency is a key specification requirement. They are optimized for isolated flyback power supplies and, in a non-isolated variant, for low-current offline buck applications. The LinkSwitch families leverage a variety of feedback strategies such as Primary Side Regulated (PSR), classical opto feedback and direct measurement of the output voltage.

LinkSwitch ICs are used in a number of applications such as: chargers, adapters, large and small appliances, consumer audio/video systems, utility meters, and a wide variety of industrial bias supplies. LinkSwitch-XT2 and LinkSwitch-TN2 are available with 900 V primary MOSFETs for three-phase industrial power supplies and high-quality consumer products destined for regions with high and unstable mains grids, tropical regions with frequent lightning strikes or any area where high-energy ring-waves and surges are prevalent.

LinkSwitch ICs are used in LED low power applications such as small bulbs. They are also extremely useful in bias supplies and for standby in larger applications and logic drivers for smart lighting.

RDK-853

Reference design board, BRD1265C/LNK3204D, BLDC motor driver

300W high-voltage brushless DC (BLDC) motor driver in sensorless field oriented control (FOC) operation. The 3-phase inverter uses BridgeSwitch (BRD1265C) and LinkSwitch-TN2 (LNK3204D).

The Hiper families of ICs are multi-die, heat-sinkable (through metal heat sink or copper foil of the PCB), SIP or SMD packaged modules for offline power supplies from 75 W to 400 W. They incorporate the controllers and high voltage switches needed to implement power factor correction and high voltage DC/DC conversion for a variety of applications including LED lighting, PC and TV power, video game power, printers, copiers and power tool chargers.

Supported topologies are CCM/DCM boost PFC, Two-Switch Forward and resonant half bridge (LLC). The Hiper products are characterized by very low component count, high reliability, broad feature set, thermal protection and electrical self and load protection. Developers benefit from highly compact system implementations, simple heatsink attachment, low EMI and smaller magnetic components.

Qspeed diodes have the lowest QRR of any Silicon diode. Their recovery characteristics increase efficiency, reduce EMI and eliminate snubbers. These features help designers improve the performance of their power conversion circuits.
