This reference design showcases a robust, compact, and efficient main power supply in DCM flyback topology for motor drives using the UCC28740 flyback controller. This design can work with a wide input voltage range of 290–1000 VDC delivering up to 50 W of continuous power. Multiple output rails at 24 V (1.25 A), 15 V (0.67 A), 5 V (2 A), 3.3 V (0.1 A) are available for control, gate drive, sensor, I/O, and other applications; additionally an isolated 5-V (0.1 A) output is provided for isolated communication power. The load and line regulation are within 0.5% over the entire operation range by the use of opto-regulated feedback. Key benefits of the UCC28740 device include valley switching enabling higher efficiency (>85% at 550 VDC, 50 W), internal HV FET enabling self-start without external circuitry, and frequency dithering that reduces EMI.
