General Circuit Operation
Primary Feedback Regulation
the integrated high-voltage MOSFET
transistor within the TOP200 (U1). The

current will flow into the control pin.
Increasing control pin current decreases
the duty cycle until a stable operating
point is reached. The output voltage is
proportional to the bias voltage by the
turnsratio oftheoutputtobiaswindings.

C5 also provides loop compensation for
the power supply by shunting AC
currents around the CONTROL pin

the auto-restart frequency during start-
up and auto-restart conditions. See DN-

of the TOP200 in bias supplies.
The circuit shown in Figure 7 is a simple
5 V, 5 W bias supply using the TOP200.
This universal input flyback power
supplyemploysprimary-sideregulation
from a transformer bias winding. This
approachisbestforlow-costapplications
requiring isolation and operation within
a narrow range of load variation. Line
and load regulation of±5% or better can
be achieved from 10% to 100% of rated
load.
The output of the T1 bias winding is
rectified and filtered by D3, R1, and C5.
The voltage across C5 is regulated by
U1, and is determined by the 5.7 V
internal shunt regulator at the
CONTROL pin of U1. When the
rectified bias voltage on C5 begins to
exceed the shunt regulator voltage,
Voltage feedback is obtained from the
transformer (T1) bias winding, which
eliminates the need for optocoupler and
secondary-referenced error amplifier.
High-voltage DC is applied to the
primary winding of T1. The other side
of the transformer primary is driven by
