GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The TEA152x family is a Switched Mode Power

Supply (SMPS) controller IC that operates directly from

the rectified universal mains. It is implemented in the high

voltage EZ-HV SOI process, combined with a low voltage

BICMOS process. The device includes a high voltage

power switch and a circuit for start-up directly from the

rectified mains voltage.

A dedicated circuit for valley switching is built in (not

implemented in TEA152xAJM versions), which makes a

very efficient slim-line electronic powerplug concept

possible.

In its most basic version of application, the TEA152x family

acts as a voltage source. Here, no additional secondary

electronics are required. A combined voltage and current

source can be realized with minimum costs for external

components. Implementation of the TEA152x family

renders an efficient and low cost power supply system.

APPLICATIONS

Typical application areas for the STARplugTM are:

· Chargers

· Adapters

· STB (Set Top Box)

· DVD

· CD(R)

· TV/monitor standby supplies

· PC peripherals

· Microcontroller supplies in home applications and small

portable equipment, etc.
