For designers of high power flyback and resonant ½ bridge converters for laptops, mini-PCs, LCD & PDP TVs and games SMPS,
the Smart Rectifier offers a simple, high efficiency solution for secondary synchronous rectification (SR) in all
operational modes and application conditions.
The IR1167 and IR1166 are secondary control ICs with built-in 7A and 3A (respectively) gate drive. Operating independently from the primary side, it uses a
proprietary ‘Voltage Level Detection’ technique to minimize wasteful secondary reactive currents to maximize secondary
efficiency.
The proprietary 200V HVIC technology allows direct sensing and control of IR’s world-class range of Standard- or Logic-Level,
30-200V HEXFET MOSFETs.
