Future Electronics Offers Availability of Fairchild Semiconductor's 650V Green Mode Buck Switches


Pointe Claire, Quebec - Future Electronics, a global leading distributor of electronic components, announces availability of Fairchild Semiconductor's 650V Green Mode Buck Switches, offering the highest power efficiency with system design scalability.



To give designers power scalability to increase power ratings of devices for additional system functionality while simplifying designs for energy efficient home appliance, industrial motor and smart meter applications, Fairchild Semiconductor developed the FSL306 and FSL 336 650 V Green Mode AC Buck Switches.



These devices offer burst-mode operation with the low available operating current (250 µA) that helps to reduce standby mode power consumption for increased energy efficiency. Power scalability from 0.5 W to 3 W (FSL306) through the adjustable current limit pin helps simplify designs and reduce design time.



The FSL306 and FSL336 provide higher reliability through rich protection features, such as a Safe Auto Restart Mode. After a fault condition, the switch waits 650 ms before restarting. This feature reduces the stress on the system during a long-term fault, improving system reliability.



These devices combine a PWM controller and a discrete MOSFET in a single package. A high-voltage regulator enables operation without the need for an auxiliary bias winding. Using a built-in error amplifier, the FSL306 and FSL336 provide direct feedback without a shunt regulator, which helps reduce the overall bill of material cost while also saving board space.
