Conclusion

The LMR36520 buck converter can easily be configured into a simple, low-cost, Fly-Buck™ converter configuration to produce one or multiple isolated secondary outputs. The Fly-Buck™ converter topology favors simple, low-cost, and low-part count design to produce isolated outputs. The regulation accuracy of the isolated outputs can be tuned by using added components such as preload resistors or zener diodes.
