Silanna Semiconductor announced the full production release of the industry-leading expanded portfolio of Active Clamp Flyback Controllers (ACF). Silanna Semiconductor focuses on the ultimate Power Management challenges with the best-in-class power density and efficiency that delight customers with unprecedented BoM savings. First announced in April 2020, Silanna Semiconductor has achieved full production release of the SZ1110, a 33W Integrated Active Clamp Flyback Controller, delivering on the customer expectations and market penetration by dominating the ACF market.
The SZ1110 devices are Active Clamp Flyback PWM Controllers that are rated for up to 33W output power and integrate an adaptive digital PWM controller and the following Ultra High-Voltage (UHV) components: An Active Clamp FET, Active Clamp Gate Driver and a Startup Regulator. This unprecedented level of integration facilitates designing efficient, high-power-density adapters with low BoM cost to satisfy power-hungry mobile phones, tablets, notebooks and video game consoles.
The SZ1110 (33W) alongside the SZ1130 (65W) which was announced in full production last year has seen exceptional customer demand and continues to grow. The technical sales team has been working directly with customers’ designs demonstrating the ACF controllers, delivering over 94% efficiency from an all-silicon design, while achieving 30W/in3 power density at 65W using SZ1130 and 21.5 W/in3 power density at 30W using SZ1110, for universal input AC/DC power adapters.
The devices provide the ease-of-design of a simple flyback controller with all the benefits of an ACF design, including recycling of the leakage inductance energy of the flyback transformer and limiting the primary FET drain voltage spike during the turn-off events. Employing Silanna’s OptiModeTM digital control architecture, the SZ1110 and SZ1130 adjust the device’s mode of operation on a cycle-by-cycle basis to maintain high efficiency, low EMI, fast dynamic load regulation and other key power supply parameters in response to varying line voltage and load.
SZ1110 and SZ1130-based AC/DC power supplies easily meet the stringent DoE and CoC efficiency and are fully supported by the Silanna Semiconductor’s Asian Center of Excellence (ACE) design support center.
