Power Integrations CAP003DG

Description
CAPZero is an automatic X capacitor discharge IC that blocks current through X capacitor discharge resistors when AC voltage is connected. When AC voltage is disconnected, it automatically discharges X capacitors through discharge resistors. This simplifies EMI filter design, allowing for larger X capacitors and smaller inductive components without changing consumption. CAPZero has only two terminals, meeting safety standards for use before or after the system input fuse. It has high common mode surge immunity, no external ground connection, and high differential surge withstand (1000 V internal MOSFETs).
