5.0 V regulator, BYPASS pin undervoltage circuit, over-temperature
protection, line and output overvoltage protection, frequency jittering,

current limit circuit, leading edge blanking and a 725 V power
MOSFET. The LinkSwitch-TN2 incorporates additional circuitry for

5.0 V regulator, BYPASS pin undervoltage circuit, over-temperature
protection, line and output overvoltage protection, frequency jittering,

current limit circuit, leading edge blanking and a 725 V power
MOSFET. The LinkSwitch-TN2 incorporates additional circuitry for
