Fairchild Semiconductor’s Green FPS™ Switch Manages 30W of Output Power without a Heatsink

Fairchild Semiconductor (NYSE: FCS) provides designers of LCD
monitors and TVs, set-top boxes and DVD players with a highly
integrated FPS power switch in an 8-DIP package that can handle up
to 30W of output power without a heat sink. Eliminating a heat sink
allows LCD monitors to be slimmer and reduces the overall cost of
the design. The FSFM300 is a highly integrated Green FPS switch
that combines a pulse-width-modulator (PWM) and an avalanche-rugged
SenseFET MOSFET into a thermally efficient and cost-effective 8-DIP
package. By incorporating a SenseFET into the actual die, it
reduces component count compared to alternate solutions and saves
valuable design time, while reducing overall system costs. This
SenseFET offers exceptionally low RDS(ON), delivering high levels
of efficiency for the overall design.
To ensure low standby consumption in power-sensitive
applications, the FSFM300 uses burst mode protection bringing
standby power consumption to less than 70~140mW depending on the
selection of passive components at no load and 265 VAC. Since many
of these applications need to operate during a wide variety of
conditions, this power switch incorporates strong protection
features such as over voltage protection, over load protection,
advanced over current protection and internal thermal shutdown to
shut down the power supply safely in the event of a failure or
abnormal condition.
The FSFM300 adds to Fairchild�s comprehensive portfolio of power
switches (FPS�). These highly integrated off-line power switches
feature a fully avalanche-rated SenseFET and current mode PWM IC
with advanced burst mode operation to meet low standby power
regulations. These switches are instrumental in simplifying designs
and lowering costs in power-sensitive applications.
