®  TOPSwitch Flyback Power Supply Efficiency Application Note AN-19 Introduction and conventional power supply designs, efficiency measurement techniques, and general design considerations for constructing Efficiency should be a major consideration when designing a efficient flyback power supplies using TOPSwitch. For a more flyback switching power supply. It can impact many aspects of detailed treatment of flyback power supply and transformer a product design, from enclosure size and ventilation to safety design refer to application notes AN-16, AN-17 and AN-18. qualification. Many design choices affect the efficiency of a given power supply design, including such seemingly disparate TOPSwitch vs. Discrete Design factors as the value of the bulk storage capacitor, transformer core geometry and construction, choice of output rectifier, and For a given output power, the efficiency attainable with a snubber and clipper networks. This application note will TOPSwitch flyback power supply is equal to or better than a concentrate on efficiency comparisons between TOPSwitch conventional power supply design using a PWM IC controller Design Type: 3842 + MOSFET TOPSwitch (On Resistance/Voltage Rating) (1.2 Ω/600V) (3.6 Ω/700V) DISCRETE vs. TOPSwitch PERFORMANCE (@ VIN = 120 VAC) Output Power 34.27 W 34.21 W Input Power 39.38 W
