levels that can be obtained under the following conditions:
Table 2 compares the features and performance differences
between the TNY254 device of the TinySwitch family with
the TinySwitch-II family of devices. Many of the new features
eliminate the need for or reduce the cost of circuit components.
Other features simplify the design and enhance performance.
1. The minimum DC input voltage is 90 V or higher for
85 VAC input, or 240 V or higher for 230 VAC input or
115 VAC input with a voltage doubler. This corresponds to
a filter capacitor of 3 µF/W for universal input and 1 µF/W
for 230 VAC or 115 VAC with doubler input.
