A 200kHz push-pull application circuit with a full-wave rectifier is shown in Figure 8-1. The output, VO, provides 5V at 50W maximum and is electrically isolated from the input. Since the UCC2808A-xQ1 is a peak-current-mode controller, the 2N2907 emitter following amplifier (buffers the CT waveform) provides slope compensation, which is necessary for duty ratios greater than 50%. Capacitor decoupling is important with a single ground IC controller, and 1μF is suggested because 1μF is as close to the IC as possible. The controller supply is a series RC for start-up, paralleled with a bias winding on the output inductor used in steady state operation.
Isolation is provided by an optocoupler with regulation completed on the secondary side using the TL431 adjustable precision shunt regulator. Small signal compensation with tight voltage regulation is achieved using TL431 on the secondary side. Many choices exist for the output inductor depending on cost, volume, and mechanical strength. Several design options are iron powder, molypermalloy (MPP), or a ferrite core with an air gap. The main power transformer has a Magnetics® Inc. ER28 size core made of P material for efficient operation at this frequency and temperature. The input voltage ranges from 36V DC to 72V DC.
