not solve the problem completely for other supply voltages.
Another systematic error is that the current comparator
cannot instantaneously turn off the main power device.
This delay time leads to primary current overshoot. This
overshoot is less of a problem when the output current is
close to its maximum, since the overshoot is only related
to the slope of the primary current and not the current
level. The overshoot is proportional to the supply voltage,
so again this affects the line regulation.

Selecting Winding Turns Ratio
Boundary mode operation gives a lot of freedom in selecting
the turns ratio of the transformer. We suggest to keep the
duty cycle low, lower N

current while keeping the primary current limit constant.
Although this seems to be a good idea, it comes at the
expense of a higher RMS current for the secondary-side
diode which might not be desirable because of the primary
side MOSFET’s superior performance as a switch. A higher
NPS does reduce the voltage stress on the secondary-side
diode while increasing the voltage stress on the primary-
side MOSFET. If switching frequency at full output load is
kept constant, the amount of energy delivered per cycle by
the transformer also stays constant regardless of the N
Therefore, the size of the transformer remains the same at
practical N
find an optimal MOSFET and diode for a given application.
Switch Voltage Clamp Requirement
Leakage inductance of an offline transformer is high due
to the extra isolation requirement. The leakage inductance
energy is not coupled to the secondary and goes into
the drain node of the MOSFET. This is problematic since
400V and higher rated MOSFETs cannot always handle
this energy by avalanching. Therefore the MOSFET needs
protection. A transient voltage suppressor (TVS) and
diode are recommended for all offline application and
connected, as shown in Figure 3. The TVS device needs
a reverse breakdown voltage greater than (V
