Understanding TOP223P And PQ05RD11 IC In Thompson DVD Power Supply
The TOP223P pulse width modulation ic is designed to work in switch mode power supply (smps). It is mainly used in the audio/video electronic equipment. Computer monitor rarely use this type of ic. In this article, I would like to share with you that not all switch mode power transformer must use the combination of uc3842 and power or chopper fet in order to function. SMPS designed are getting compact nowadays and this TOP223P ic actually consisted of the oscillator circuit and power fet integrated into it. Thus, do not search for the power fet at the surrounding circuit. If you look at the photo of this Thompson DTH5008FEK power supply, you could notice that there are not many components in the primary section. What you see are fuse, bridge rectifier, filter capacitor, top223p ic, optoisolator and couples of diodes, resistors and capacitors. If this type of power supply breakdown, it would not take you much time to repair it. Some TOP SWITCH IC have only three terminal but this type have 8 pins.
