Initial Release
General Description
The Supertex SR08x is an inductorless switching regulator
designed to operate directly from a rectified AC line. The
operating principle is to turn on a pass transistor when the
rectified AC is below the output voltage, and to turn it off when
the output voltage reaches a specific level. A linear regulator
supplied by V
OUT
provides an additional fixed 3.3V output
(SR086) or 5V output (SR087). Efficiencies of around 55%
may be realized for loads up to 1W in 120VAC applications,
with around 50% efficiencies for loads up to 800mW in 230VAC
applications.
A logic-level enable input allows the SR08x to be disabled
– useful when the SR08x is employed as a keep-alive power
supply.
WARNING! Galvanic isolation is not provided. Dangerous
voltages are present when connected to the AC line. It is
the responsibility of the designer employing the SR08x
to ensure adequate safeguards are in place to protect the
end user from electrical shock.
