Transformer Design
Turns Ratio.
(Secondary:Primary) should be chosen based on the following
formula:
where:
For example, if V
be the case when two high voltage diodes were in series), and the
desired V
In a worst case, when V
at their maximum tolerance limit, N will be higher. Taking V
= 5.5 V, V
the worst case condition, N can be determined to be 9.5.
In practice, always choose a turns ratio that is higher than the
calculated value to give some safety margin. In the worst case
example, a minimum turns ratio of N = 10 is recommended.

Ideally, the charging time is not affected by transformer pri-
mary inductance. In practice, however, it is recommended that a
primary inductance be chosen between 10 μH and 20 μH. When

to lower efficiency and longer charging time. When L
greater than 20 μH, the rating of the transformer must be dra-
matically increased to handle the required power density, and the
series resistances are usually higher. A design that is optimized
to achieve a small footprint solution would have an L
12 to 14 μH, with minimized leakage inductance and secondary
capacitance, and minimized primary and secondary series resist-
ance. Please refer to the table Recommended Components for
more information.
Leakage Inductance and Secondary Capacitance.
former design should minimize the leakage inductance to ensure
the turn-off voltage spike at the SW node does not exceed the
40 V limit. An achievable minimum leakage inductance for this
application, however, is usually compromised by an increase in
parasitic capacitance. Furthermore, the transformer secondary
capacitance should be minimized. Any secondary capacitance is
multiplied by N
initial current swings when the switch turns on, and to reduced
efficiency.
