Note:

The best alternative to TOP256EN is LNK3050GN, which has an input voltage range of 85-265VAC and a similar packaging shape to TOP256EN. The main issue to consider when using TNY280PN, UC38428, NCP1079BAP130G, and TNY284PG as substitutes is the operating frequency. The operating frequency of these models is different from TOP256EN, and circuit and electronic components may need to be modified. For example, the operating frequency of TNY280PN and NCP1079BAP130G is 132kHz, while the frequency range of TNY284PG is 100kHz to 500kHz. In addition, UC38428 requires external MOSFETs and driver circuits, which makes the replacement process more complex but more efficient.
If substitutes are used directly, it will cause the components to heat up. Simply put, as the operating frequency increases, energy storage components such as inductors and capacitors in the circuit charge and discharge faster, which increases component losses. Moreover, devices like power semiconductors operate at high frequencies, resulting in increased switching losses. Just like how running too fast can make people tired, if the components heat up severely, their lifespan and reliability will decrease, and they may even break down due to overheating, causing safety issues. For example, overheating of an inductor may cause the insulation layer of the coil to break, leading to a short circuit.
