FLC01

Fire lighter circuit

Datasheet

Features

• Dedicated thyristor structure for capacitance

discharge ignition operation

• High pulse current capability:

• Fast turn-on operation

• Designed for high ambient temperature (up to

120° C)

Benefits

• Space saving thanks to monolithic function

integration

• High reliability with planar technology

Description

The FLC01 series has been especially developed

for capacitance discharge operation. The main

applications are gas lighters or ignitors such as

cookers / gas boilers / gas hobs...

It provides a fully integrated function, with high

performance and reliability levels, adapted to

severe and hot temperature environment.

– Th: Thyristor for switching operation

– Z: Zener diode to set the threshold voltage

– D: Diode for reverse conduction

– R: 2 k

Ω resistor
