Design Highlights
Capacitor C1, C2 and L1 provide line filtering. Resistor
R2 programs the U1 current limit. The Q22 reflected gate
capacitance provides optimum reset for transformer T1.
Zener VR1 clamps the peak drain voltage to a safe level
during transient conditions.
• Low component count
• Built-in accurate OV/UV with single resistor
programming
• High efficiency (88%) using synchronous rectification
• Multiple outputs with good cross-regulation
• Built-in output overload, open loop and thermal protection
• 400 kHz switching frequency
Resistors R21, R22, C21 and MOSFETs Q21 and Q22 form
a capacitively coupled direct driven synchronous rectifier
for the main (5 V) output. Zener diode VR21 acts both as
a clamp and as a diode to quickly recharge the Q21 drive
capacitorC21.ResistorR23holdsQ21offwhennoswitching
signal is present.
• No primary current sense resistor required
Operation
Resistor R1 programs the input under/over voltages to 33Vand
86 V. It also linearly reduces the maximum device duty cycle
(DCMAX) with increasing input voltage, helping to prevent core
saturation during transients.
The 20 V output is generated from a flyback winding on the
L2 inductor, which is rectified and filtered by diode D41 and
C41. Zener VR31 and diode D32 provide a pre-load on the
7.5 V output to enhance regulation at light load.
