DESCRIPTION

MP173 is a primary-side regulator that provides

accurate constant voltage (CV) regulation

without an opto-coupler. It supports buck, boost,

buck-boost, and flyback topologies. It has an

integrated 700 V MOSFET to simplify the

structure and reduce cost. These features make

it an ideal regulator for offline, low-power

applications, such as home appliances and

standby power.

MP173 is a green-mode-operation regulator.

Both the peak current and switching frequency

decrease as the load decreases. This feature

provides excellent efficiency at light load and

improves the overall average efficiency.

MP173

has

various

protection

features

including thermal shutdown (TSD), VCC under-

voltage lockout (UVLO), overload protection

(OLP), short-circuit protection (SCP), and open-

loop protection.

MP173 is available in a small TSOT23-5

package and SOIC-8 package.
