A typical block diagram for an Active Clamp Flyback stage is as shown in Figure 2-6. The controller provides PWM signals for Power FETs (Q3 and Q4). Low-side FET (Q4) being referenced to primary ground can be provided directly from the ACF controller. However, providing PWM signal to high-side FET (Q3) can get challenging as Q3 is referenced to a high voltage switching node.
