Power section
The power section is implemented with an n-channel power MOSFET with a breakdown
voltage of 800 V min. and a typical R
allow a virtually lossless current sensing and the thermal sensor.
The gate driver of the power MOSFET is designed to supply a controlled gate current during
both turn-ON and turn-OFF in order to minimize common mode EMI. During UVLO
conditions, an internal pull-down circuit holds the gate low in order to ensure that the power
MOSFET cannot be turned ON accidentally.
High voltage current generator
The high voltage current generator is supplied by the DRAIN pin. At the first start up of the
converter it is enabled when the voltage across the input bulk capacitor reaches the

In steady state condition, if the self biasing function is used, the high voltage current
generator is activated between V

The device can also be supplied through the auxiliary winding; in this case the high voltage
current source is disabled during steady-state operation, provided that VDD is above
