POWER
The RD9 is a special printed circuit board (Figure 1) designed
for rapid prototyping of TinySwitch-based flyback power
supplies in the 1-3 W range. Component positions and an
optimized layout are provided for a complete single output
power supply as shown in Figure 2. Component size and
placement are identical to evaluation board RD8. The board is
designed to accommodate a transformer using an EE16 core
with a 10 pin bobbin (Ying Chin YC-1607 or equivalent*). In
addition to the power supply circuitry, the RD9 also provides a
prototypingarea onthe secondaryside of the boardfor circuitry
such as additional outputs or voltage and current regulators.
Some typical application circuits that can be constructed using
the RD9 printed circuit board can be found in the TinySwitch
and RD8 data sheets, and Design Ideas DI-4 through DI-8.

board and the RD9 prototyping board are perforated between
the primary and secondary circuit areas, so that the primary half
of the RD8 can be separated and combined with the secondary
half of the RD9.
