TOP221PN Offline PWM Switch 5.7V 1.2mA IC DIP-8
The TOP221PN is part of the TOPS witch family of integrated offline PWM switchers, designed to simplify AC-DC power supply circuits. It integrates a high-voltage power MOSFET, PWM controller, oscillator, and protection circuitry into a single DIP-8 package, significantly reducing external component count and design complexity.
This IC is typically used in Flyback converter topologies operating directly from rectified AC mains. It offers high efficiency, low standby power consumption, and reliable operation through built-in protection features such as thermal shutdown, current limiting, and auto-restart. The TOP221PN is widely used in low to medium power applications, making it ideal for consumer electronics and industrial power supplies.
