8.2.2.8 VC Input and Output, CVCIN and CVCOUT

The advanced startup circuit requires that CVCOUT ≥ 10 x CVCIN. Using the minimum requirement of CVCIN,

CVCIN = 0.1 µF

Choose CVCOUT = 1 µF

The primary switching FETs driven by the PWM controller should be chosen such that its total gate charge is less than 60nC. For gate charges greater than 60nC, COUT should be increased.

CVCOUT may need to be increased when using certain DC/DC converters like Active Clamp Forward. In some DC/DC converters, a low cost diode (DVC) can be added as shown in Figure 30 to allow the DC/DC to keep its bias voltage during PoE shutdown conditions.
