Overview: .. High Voltage Current Regulators
Preliminary Data Sheet The IXYS IXC series of high voltage current regulators consists of nonswitchable, 2-terminal, AC and DC current regulators. IXC Series VAK = 450 V IA(P) = 2 - 60 mA RDYN = 9 - 900 kΩ
TO-220 AB (IXCP)
4 4 1 3 12 AC non-switchable regulators This family consists of two DC current regulators connected internally in series to regulate the current to a specified value in both directions. Its output characteristics in quadrants 1 and 3 are the same as shown in Figure 1 so that the current regulation is also the same in both directions. Parts are only available in the TO-220 package.
Current Regulator Nomenclature Parts can be ordered by using the following nomenclature: TO-252 AA (IXCY) 3 Fig. 1. Current Regulator Output Characteristics Non-switchable regulators This is a family of extremely stable, high voltage current regulators with the typical output characteristic shown in Figure 1. The temperature stability is based on a threshold pensation technique and uses IXYS' most recently developed high voltage process. The plete family will be capable of providing other intermediate current levels which can be programmed on-chip during the manufacturing phase. Specific applications are current sourcing in PABX applications, telephone line terminations, surge protection and voltage supply protection. Two devices in a back-toback configuration will give bidirectional operation. Specific bidirectional applications would be series surge protection and soft startup applications from AC mains.
