Secondary output diode
A Schottky barrier diode or a fast recovery diode with low V
F
is recommended because the forward voltage V
F
of the
secondary output diode causes an error in the output voltage. When selecting a secondary output diode, the peak of
the secondary reverse voltage must not exceed the rating of the diode. The secondary RMS current I
SRMS
must also
be set so that it does not exceed the rating.
Generally, 30 % or more of the reverse-direction breakdown voltage V
R
is recommended.

Output Resistance and Zener Diode (Minimum Load Current)
The output voltage rises when no load is applied or when light load is applied. The reason for this is that the MAXIMUM
is in the OFF-time t
OFF_MAX
when the IC is under light load.
This is because switching is always performed at the minimum frequency determined by the minimum ON-time t
ON_MIN
.
For the power P
O_MIN
determined by the switching frequency of this lowest frequency, when the secondary load is lighter
than this, the output voltage is
It moves up. P
O_MIN
is calculated by the following equation:

Because it is an expression, it can also be obtained from I

If the rise in the secondary output voltage becomes a problem, connect a secondary output zener diode to suppress
the rise in the voltage. It is also necessary to suppress the rise in the output voltage by adding a resistor to the
secondary output to provide a constant loss. The output resistor R
OUT
to be connected to the secondary side should
be as follows. The resistor-loss P
LOSS
is calculated as follows.

In practice, even if R
OUT
loads calculated by the above equation are used, the output voltage rises transiently during
secondary discharging. Therefore, it should be set lower enough than this R
OUT
. Adjust this resistance value in the
actual evaluation. When selecting a resistor, pay attention to the rated power of the resistor.
