Product details
Overview
STEVAL-ISA182V1 from STMicroelectronics is an evaluation board implementing an isolated 8.4 W (30 W peak) offline flyback converter using the VIPER38HD IC, delivering 12 V / 0.7 A (2.5 A peak) from 85–132 VAC input. It features 81.14% minimum active-mode efficiency, <25 mW standby consumption at 115 VAC, EN55022 Class-B EMI compliance, and burst-mode operation for ultra-low no-load loss - designed specifically for utility metering applications.
For engineers reviewing the STEVAL-ISA182V1 datasheet, STEVAL-ISA182V1 pinout, STEVAL-ISA182V1 application, or STEVAL-ISA182V1 equivalent, key selection considerations include its integrated VIPER38HD controller with 800 V MOSFET, adjustable extra power timer (EPT), fixed 115 kHz switching frequency with jittering, dual-level OCP, and thermal shutdown with hysteresis.
Technical Context
The STEVAL-ISA182V1 implements a primary-side regulated, current-mode controlled flyback topology with VIPER38HD as the core controller. The IC integrates an 800 V avalanche-rated power MOSFET, operates at fixed 115 kHz with frequency jittering to reduce EMI peaks, and uses burst mode below light load to achieve <25 mW standby consumption.
Protection architecture includes dual-level overcurrent protection (OCP), output overvoltage protection (OVP), short-circuit protection, and thermal shutdown with hysteresis. After fault removal, automatic restart occurs without external intervention - critical for unattended metering deployments.
Key Specifications

FAQ
Is STEVAL-ISA182V1 certified for use in revenue-grade electricity meters?
No - STEVAL-ISA182V1 is a development tool, not a certified metering module. It implements a reference design compliant with EN55022 Class-B EMI and low standby power, but final meter certification (e.g., MID, ANSI C12, IEC 62053) requires full system-level testing, including accuracy, isolation, and environmental validation beyond this board's scope.
Can the output voltage be adjusted to 5 V or 24 V?
Yes - output voltage is set by the feedback resistor divider (R8, R9, REF TS432) and transformer turns ratio. To change to 5 V or 24 V, reconfigure the feedback network per TS432's 2.5 V reference and adjust T1's secondary winding; however, peak power capability and regulation stability must be re-validated across line/load/temperature per IEC 61347-2-13.
Does STEVAL-ISA182V1 support universal input (90–264 VAC)?
No - it is optimized for 85–132 VAC (US nominal range). Operating at 230 VAC would exceed VIPER38HD's internal clamp voltage margin and compromise reliability. ST offers alternate boards like STEVAL-ISA171V1 for 185–264 VAC or universal-input variants using VIPER27LD.
What is the role of the Extra Power Timer (EPT) on this board?
The EPT pin (IC1 Pin 5) configures a programmable overload timer that allows sustained 30 W peak output for up to ~3 seconds during inrush or motor-start events. It is implemented via external capacitor C8 (33 nF), setting timeout per VIPER38HD's datasheet equation tEPT = 1.1 × CEPT × 10⁶ seconds.
