Open FB Protection

The UCG2882x monitors for an open FB pin condition to prevent excessive power from being delivered to the output when the FB pin voltage clamped to the maximum value. The open FB condition can occur with a faulty or open-circuited optocoupler or even large power (greater than the flyback converter rated power) drawn for long time durations. Protection is asserted when FB pin voltage exceeds the CCM entry threshold for >120ms.
