8.2.2.3 Transformer Inductance and Peak Currents

For this design example, the transformer magnetizing inductance is selected based upon the CCM condition. An inductance value that allows the converter to stay in CCM over a wider operating range before transitioning into discontinuous current mode is used to minimize losses due to otherwise high currents and also to decrease the output ripple. The design of the transformer in this example sizes the inductance so the converter enters CCM operation at approximately 10% load and minimum bulk voltage to minimize output ripple.

The inductor (LP) for a CCM flyback can be calculated using Equation 11.

Equation 11. UCC28C40 UCC28C41 UCC28C42 UCC28C43 UCC28C44 UCC28C45 UCC38C40 UCC38C41 UCC38C42 UCC38C43 UCC38C44 UCC38C45

where

  • PIN is estimated by dividing the maximum output power (POUT) by the target efficiency (η)
  • fSW is the switching frequency of the converter

For the UCC28C42 the switching frequency is equal to the oscillator frequency and is set to 110kHz. Selecting fSW to be 110kHz provides a good compromise between size of magnetics, switching losses, and places the first harmonic below the 150kHz lower limit of EN55022. Therefore, the transformer inductance must be approximately 1.8mH. A 1.5mH inductance is chosen as the magnetizing inductance, LP, value for this design.

Based on calculated inductor value and the switching frequency, the current stress of the MOSFET and output diode can be calculated.

The peak current in the primary-side MOSFET of a CCM flyback can be calculated as shown in Equation 12.

Equation 12. UCC28C40 UCC28C41 UCC28C42 UCC28C43 UCC28C44 UCC28C45 UCC38C40 UCC38C41 UCC38C42 UCC38C43 UCC38C44 UCC38C45

The MOSFET peak current is 1.36A. The RMS current of the MOSFET is calculated to be 0.97A as shown in Equation 13. Therefore, IRFB9N65A is selected to be used as the primary-side switch.

Equation 13. UCC28C40 UCC28C41 UCC28C42 UCC28C43 UCC28C44 UCC28C45 UCC38C40 UCC38C41 UCC38C42 UCC38C43 UCC38C44 UCC38C45

The output diode peak current is equal to the MOSFET peak current reflected to the secondary side.

Equation 14. UCC28C40 UCC28C41 UCC28C42 UCC28C43 UCC28C44 UCC28C45 UCC38C40 UCC38C41 UCC38C42 UCC38C43 UCC38C44 UCC38C45

The diode average current is equal to the total output current (4A) combined with a required 60V rating and 13.6A peak current requirement, a 48CTQ060-1 is selected for the output diode.
