Product Details
Description
LinkZero-AX is an integrated offline switching IC that enables designers to achieve 0.00 Watts of standby energy consumption in auxiliary power supplies. LinkZero-AX features an innovative power-down mode that effectively turns off the auxiliary power supply when the end product is idle or in standby. Power-down mode is triggered by a signal accessible to a microcontroller, completely shutting down internal switch control circuits. However, while in this power-down mode, the bypass pin remains regulated, allowing the LinkZero-AX IC to be awakened with a reset pulse or button press.
When paired with CapZero and SENZero, LinkZero-AX reduces standby power waste in high power products to as low as 5 mW, or effectively zero. Alternatively, while in power down mode, LinkZero-AX offers a simple means of providing up to 500uA at 4V from the regulated BYPASS pin. This current can be used to power a system wake up sensor while in power down mode while the rest of the system is in standby. This functionality, although increasing system standby power consumption, provides a simple means to power a low current sensor without requiring the power supply to switch.
