Power Integrations Introduces Innovative eSIP Power Package to Support Low-Profile Trend in Consumer Electronics: TOPSwitch(R)-HX Family Of Product
SAN JOSE, Calif. (Business Wire EON) March 2, 2008 -- As with all Power Integrations products, the heatsink attached to the eSIP package is at Source potential and therefore electrically quiet without the use of an insulating pad, greatly reducing system EMI and assembly cost. In addition to thermal and physical size benefits, the new eSIP package also reduces power supply manufacturing costs. An easy-to-use, low-cost clip reduces heatsink assembly time and improves package to heatsink contact repeatability, ensuring consistently good thermal performance in contrast to the asymmetrically-mounted screw tab on the older TO-220 package design. The clip-mounted eSIP passes shock and vibration tests to IEC 60068.
In addition to offering a compact form factor, the eSIP package meets the high voltage creepage and clearance requirements through innovative design of the package and the pin layout.
Comments Andrew Smith, product marketing manager at Power Integrations: "The new eSIP package removes the power device as the limiting factor in the headroom required by the power supply in the new generation of slim LCD monitors, flat screen TVs and set-top boxes. Applications such as high power adapters for a variety of products really benefit from the low profile eSIP package. More information is in the TOPSwitch-HX Data Sheet."
