The ISL6561 has a built-in shunt regulator to allow 12-V-only bias using a small external limiting resistor.
The FAN7371 further increases reliability by providing under-voltage lockout (UVLO) for VBS and a built-in 25V shunt regulator.
The FAN7710 combines one high-side 625V gate driver circuit, two 550V MOSFETs, a frequency control circuit and a shunt regulator -- plus the added features of active ZVS control and an open lamp detection function -- into one ultra-compact 8-DIP package.
