Product details

10 W offline switcher with 800 V avalanche-rugged MOSFET

The VIPER16LD integrates a 800 V avalanche-rugged power MOSFET and a PWM controller in a single 16-SOIC package, targeting auxiliary and bias supplies up to 10 W in flyback, buck, or buck-boost topologies. The 60 kHz fixed switching frequency with 70 % duty cycle ceiling suits compact transformer designs for 50/60 Hz line-powered converters.

Parametric deep-dive: supply range, protection, and temperature grade

The IC operates from an 11.5 V to 23.5 V Vcc supply, with a 13 V start-up threshold that ensures clean power-on from a bulk capacitor. Built-in fault protection includes cycle-by-cycle current limiting and thermal shutdown with hysteresis — no external sense resistor or OTP thermistor needed for basic protection.

Active production — sourcing and package availability

Available in a 16-SOIC (0.154", 3.90 mm width) surface-mount package, supplied in tube or tape-and-reel per order quantity.

Frequently asked questions

What is the maximum output power of VIPER16LD?

The device is rated for 10 W continuous output in a flyback topology at nominal line voltage. Actual power depends on input voltage, transformer design, and ambient temperature — derate as needed above 25 °C.

Is VIPER16LD a direct replacement for VIPER17?

No. The VIPER17 is a different member of the VIPer plus family with a higher breakdown voltage (800 V vs 800 V same) and different protection features. Pin compatibility is not guaranteed; consult the respective datasheets for pinout differences.

Does VIPER16LD have integrated protection features?

Yes. It includes cycle-by-cycle current limiting and over-temperature protection with hysteresis, eliminating the need for external sense resistors or thermistors in basic designs.
