370 Vdc. With ICC1 = 1.2 mA (65 kHz version), we can
expect a DSS dissipation around 440 mW. If you select a
higher switching frequency version, the ICC1 increases and
it is likely that the DSS consumption exceeds 500 mW. In
that case, we recommend adding an auxiliary winding in
order to offer more dissipation room to the power MOSFET.

experience shows that a 40% decrease can be seen on
auxiliary windings from nominal operation down to standby
mode. Let's select a nominal auxiliary winding of 20 V to
offer sufficient margin regarding 8 V when in standby (R

that is to say: 1.8 kW < R
the ratio auxiliary/power must be: 12 / 20 = 0.6. The I
current has to not exceed 6.4 mA. This will occur when V
grows-up to: 8.7 V + 1.8 k x (6.4 m + 1.1 m) = 22.2 V for
the first boundary or 8.7 V + 3.6 k x (6.4 m +1.1 m) = 35.7 V
for second boundary. On the power output, it will
respectively give 22.6 x 0.6 = 13.3 V and 35.7 x 0.6 = 21.4 V.
As one can see, tweaking the R
selection of a given overvoltage output level. Theoretically
predicting the auxiliary drop from nominal to standby is an
almost impossible exercise since many parameters are
involved, including the converter time constants. Fine
tuning of R
experiments on a breadboard to check V
also output voltage excursion in fault. Once properly
adjusted, the fail-safe protection will preclude any lethal
voltage runaways in case a problem would occur in the
feedback loop.
