Integrated switching regulators cut PSU cost
Allegro Sanken now offers a range of integrated high-voltage switching regulators which allow the designer to produce the lowest-cost switch-mode power supply possible
The A121x family, produced with BiCMOS technology, consists of devices that feature fast power-on time and low-noise operation.
Device programming is performed after packaging to ensure increased switch-point accuracy by eliminating offsets that can be induced by package stress.
Unique Hall element geometries and low-offset amplifiers help to minimise noise and to reduce the residual offset voltage normally caused by device over-moulding, temperature excursions and thermal stress.
Targeted at the consumer, computer/office, industrial and automotive markets, the A121x family is offered in a three-pin single in-line package (UA) or a three-pin surface-mount package (LH).
