Product details

700V flyback switcher — what it does in the supply

The STMicroelectronics VIPER100A-E is a monolithic flyback switching regulator from the VIPER™ series, integrating a 700V avalanche-rugged power MOSFET and PWM controller in a single Pentawatt-5 HV package. It delivers up to 100 W in isolated or non-isolated offline converters, targeting AC-DC adapters, auxiliary supplies, and industrial power stages where board space is tight.

200 kHz switching — transformer size trade-off

Switching at up to 200 kHz lets you shrink the flyback transformer and output filter capacitance compared to 65–100 kHz designs, but pushes the snubber and layout discipline — the leakage-inductance spike at turn-off needs a well-placed RCD clamp to stay within the 700V breakdown.

Control and protection features

Built-in fault protection includes current limiting and over-temperature shutdown. The enable pin, frequency control, and soft-start give the designer flexibility to tailor the converter's startup behaviour and EMI profile without external sequencing logic.

Sourcing is limited to surplus and broker inventory; we quote each order against an RFQ, confirming availability and current pricing at quote time.

Frequently asked questions

What is the operating frequency of VIPER100A-E?

The VIPER100A-E switches at up to 200 kHz, allowing a smaller transformer and output capacitor compared to lower-frequency flyback controllers.
