9.2.1.2.3 Flyback Transformer – T1

Choose a turns ratio based on an approximate 60% max duty cycle at minimum input voltage using Equation 14, rounding up or down as needed.

Equation 14. GUID-BAA11D41-2DAD-4535-A775-52217BD2180F-low.gif

Select a magnetizing inductance based on the minimum off-time constraint using Equation 15. Choose a value of 44 µH and a saturation current of minimum 1 A for this application.

Equation 15. GUID-F9B190EC-7F6F-4D52-8316-455D993B4446-low.gif

Note that a higher magnetizing inductance provides a larger operating range for BCM and FFM, but the leakage inductance can increase based on a higher number of primary turns, NP. The primary and secondary winding RMS currents are given by Equation 16 and Equation 17, respectively.

Equation 16. GUID-A4D53B1C-1FD2-4024-A8E4-9179848F09F8-low.gif
Equation 17. GUID-D9EDB46D-4D5A-4485-BC9F-1E2CB636E88F-low.gif

Find the maximum output current for a given turns ratio using Equation 18, where the typical value for ISW-PEAK is the 0.75-A switch current peak threshold. Iterate by increasing the turns ratio if the output current capability is too low at minimum input voltage.
