PRODUCTION DATA
When the power MOSFET is turned off, the leakage inductance of the transformer resonates with the SW node parasitic capacitance. The resultant ringing behavior can be excessive with large transformer leakage inductance and can corrupt the secondary zero-current detection. To prevent such a situation, a minimum switch off-time, designated as tOFF-MIN, of 400 ns, is set internally to make sure of proper functionality.
Furthermore, noise effects as a result of power MOSFET turn-on can impact the internal current sense circuit measurement. To mitigate this effect, the LM25185 provides a blanking time after the MOSFET turns on. This blanking time forces a minimum on-time, tON-MIN, of 125 ns.
