6. Frequently Asked Questions
▶>
It typically supports up to 15W for wide-range inputs and slightly more for 85–265 VAC ranges with proper heat management.
>
Yes. Its monolithic integration reduces component count, making it ideal for space-constrained applications.
>
It supports primary-side regulation with external feedback, which can enable constant current behavior in LED or battery charger applications.
>
VIPER27L offers higher voltage ratings and better thermal handling compared to VIPER16, but with less power output than VIPER37.
>
No. VIPER27L is only available in 7-pin through-hole DIP. However, other variants in the VIPER series do support SMD formats.
