NCP1200P40G

AC DC Converters, Offline Switchers Overview

The NCP1200P40G is a PWM current-mode controller designed for low-power universal off-line supplies. It supports Flyback and Forward topologies with a fixed switching frequency of 40 kHz. The device features a maximum duty cycle of 80% and provides an output drive current of 250 mA. It operates within a junction temperature range of -25°C to 125°C and utilizes a PDIP-8 through-hole package.

AC DC Converters, Offline Switchers Feature Summary

• Integrates dynamic self-supply (DSS) technology, eliminating the need for auxiliary windings by drawing power directly from the high-voltage DC bus.
• Includes internal output short-circuit protection and pulse-by-pulse current limiting for enhanced system reliability.
• Features skip-cycle mode operation at low peak currents to maintain high efficiency under light load conditions without generating audible noise.

AC DC Converters, Offline Switchers Applications

• Universal AC-DC wall adapters
• Offline battery chargers
• Standby switch-mode power supplies (SMPS)

AC DC Converters, Offline Switchers Procurement Notes
