6 Dual Positive Output Voltages

For some DC-DC applications, it can be desirable to have a positive VDD1 voltage and a second positive VDD2 voltage. The UCC14240-Q1 configuration shown in Figure 6-1, is an example of VDD1=+20 V and VDD2=+5 V. The settable range for each is 18 V<VDD1<25 V and 2.5 V<VDD2<VDD1. Applications could include driving a SiC between 0 V<VGS<VDD1 (where VDD1 can be 18 V or greater) and using VDD2=5 V or 3.3 V to bias additional secondary-side logic circuits, CAN transceivers, isolated voltage or current sensors or providing secondary-side, digital isolator bias.
