Secondary Turns, NSECONDARY
By default, if the grey override cell is left blank, the minimum number
of secondary turns is calculated such that the peak operating ux
density B
PEAK
is kept below the recommended maximum of 3800
gauss (380 mT). In general, it is not necessary to enter a number in
the override cell except in designs where a lower operating ux
density is desired.
Bias Turns, NBIAS
Determined based on VBIAS set voltage or secondary turns.
The other transformer parameters that are automatically calculated
by the spreadsheet include:
OD_PRIMARY_INSULATED (mm), Primary winding wire outer
diameter with insulation
OD_PRIMARY_BARE (mm), Outer diameter without insulation
CMA_PRIMARY (Cmil/A), Winding CMA
OD_SECONDARY_INSULATED (mm), Secondary winding wire
outer diameter with insulation
OD_ SECONDARY _BARE (mm), Outer diameter without insulation
CMA_ SECONDARY (Cmil/A), Winding CMA
Step 5 – Primary Components Selection
Enter: BROWN-IN VOLTAGE, VBIAS, VF_BIAS
Required Line Undervoltage Brown-in, BROWN-IN REQUIRED
This is the input AC voltage at which the power supply will turn on
(once the brown-in threshold (IUV+) is exceeded). The typical value
is 20% below minimum AC input voltage (VIN_MIN). The brown-in
voltage can be changed to a specic voltage required on cell [C101].
Line Undervoltage / Overvoltage Sense Resistor, RLS
PIXls will calculate the resistance value based on the brown-in
voltage. Shown as RLS1 + RLS2 on Figure 13, they are typically
connected after the bridge rectier. Typical total value for RLS1 +
RLS2 is 3.8 MΩ. RLS is approximately equal to V
BROWN-IN
× 1.414 / I
UV+
.
Brown-Out Actual
During brown-out, the power supply will inhibit switching when the
brown-out threshold current falls below the IUV- threshold.
Line Overvoltage, OVERVOLTAGE_LINE
This is the input AC voltage at which the power supply will
instantaneously stop switching once the overvoltage threshold (I
OV+
)
is exceeded, switching will be re-enabled when switching the line
overvoltage hysteresis (I
OV(H)
) level is reached. Line OV voltage is
approximately equal to I
OV+
× (RLS1 + RLS2) / 1.414.
Rectied Bias Voltage, VBIAS
A default value of 12 V is assumed. The voltage may be set to
different values (for example for applications when the bias winding
output is also used as a non-isolated primary-side auxiliary output).
Higher voltages typically increase no-load input power. Values below
10 V are not recommended since at light load there may be insufcient
voltage to supply current to the PRIMARY BYPASS pin which will
increase no-load input power. A 22 µF, 50 V low ESR electrolytic
capacitor is recommended for the bias winding rectication lter
capacitor, CBIAS. A low ESR electrolytic capacitor improves no-load
input power.
BPP Pin Capacitor, CBPP
The capacitance value is determined by the ILIMIT_MODE required.
0.47 µF for standard or 4.7 µF for increased current limit. Although
electrolytic capacitors can be used, often surface mount multi-layer
ceramic capacitors are preferred for use on double sided boards as
they enable placement of capacitors close to the IC. A ceramic X7R
(or better) type capacitor rated to at least 25 V is recommended.
Bias Diode Forward Drop, VF_BIAS
A default value of 0.7 V is used though this can be changed to match
the type of diode used for rectifying the bias winding.
