Functional Description
Figure 21 shows the basic circuit diagram of a primary-
side regulated flyback converter with typical waveforms
shown
conduction mode (DCM) operation is preferred for
primary-side regulation since it allows better output
regulation. The operation principles of DCM flyback
converter are as follows:
During the MOSFET on time (t

When the MOSFET is turned off, the energy stored in
the inductor forces the rectifier diode (D) to be turned
on. While the diode is conducting, the output voltage

During the inductor current discharge time, the sum of
output voltage and diode forward-voltage drop is
reflected to the auxiliary winding side as (V
N
as current decreases, the auxiliary winding voltage
reflects the output voltage best at the end of diode
conduction time, where the diode current diminishes to
zero. Thus, by sampling the winding voltage at the end
of the diode conduction time, the output voltage
information can be obtained. The internal error amplifier
for output voltage regulation (EA_V) compares the
sampled voltage with internal precise reference to
generate error voltage (V
duty cycle of the MOSFET in CV mode.
Meanwhile, the output current can be estimated using
the peak drain current and inductor current discharge
time since output current is same as average of the
diode current in steady state.
The output current estimator picks up the peak value of
the drain current with a peak detection circuit and
calculates the output current using the inductor
discharge time (t
