LT3002

Demonstration circuit 3077A is a compact no-opto isolated flyback converter featuring the LT3002. The DC3077A outputs 12V and maintains tight regulation with a load current from 5mA up to 1.1A over an input voltage from 10V to 30V. The output current capability increases with the input voltage, as shown in the Performance Summary table.

Transformer leakage inductance causes a voltage spike on the primary side after the power switch turns off. The leakage inductance spike is limited within the MOSFET’s voltage rating of 65V with an RC snubber and a TVS clamp which damp the ringing and clamp the MOSFET drain voltage to a safe level.

The Performance Summary table summarizes the performance of the demo board at room temperature. The DC3077A demo circuit can be easily modified for different applications with some pre-designed transformers.

The LT3002 data sheet gives a complete description of the part, operation and application information. The data sheet must be read in conjunction with this quick start guide for demo circuit 3077A.
