The STR-A6131 and STR-A6132 are PRC topology (fixed off-time)
regulators specifically designed to satisfy the requirements for increased
integration and reliability in flyback converters. They incorporate a
primary control and drive circuit with avalanche-rated power
MOSFETs. The STR-A6132 features higher switching current and
avalanche-energy ratings and lower on-resistance.
Covering the power range from below 12 watts to 16 watts for a 120
VAC input, these devices can be used in a range of applications, from
DVD and VCR players to ac adapters for cellular phones and digital
cameras. An auto-standby function reduces power consumption at light
load, while multiple protections, including the avalanche energy guaran-
teed MOSFET, provide high reliability of system design.
Cycle-by-cycle current limiting, undervoltage lockout with hyster-
esis, overvoltage protection, and thermal shutdown protect the power
supply during the normal overload and fault conditions. Overvoltage
protection and thermal shutdown are latched after a short delay. The
latch may be reset by cycling the input supply. Low start-up current and
a low-power standby mode selected from the secondary circuit completes
a comprehensive suite of features. Both devices are provided in an 8-pin
mini-DIP plastic package.

WARNING -- These devices are designed to be operated at lethal voltages and energy levels. Circuit designs
that embody these components must conform with applicable safety requirements. Precautions must
be taken to prevent accidental contact with power-line potentials. Do not connect grounded test
equipment.
The use of an isolation transformer is recommended during circuit development and breadboarding.
