Description
Demonstration circuit 1929A is a 200W active clamp for-
ward converter featuring the
It operates at about 100kHz and produces a regulated 12V
output from an input voltage ranging from 150V to 400V,
making it well suited for automotive, industrial, and other
applications. Table 1 summarizes the performance of the
demo board.
The LT3752-1 is a current mode PWM controller opti-
mized for a forward converter with high-side active clamp
transformer reset. An accurate, programmable volt-second
clamp allows primary switch duty cycles above 50% for
better utilization of switch, transformer and rectifier. The
AOUT control signal can be used to power a gate drive
transformer, level-shift driver, or opto-coupler driver
for the high-side N-channel FET. The SOUT controls the
secondary side synchronous rectification. The integrated
housekeeping flyback controller brings great convenience
for both primary and secondary bias circuits. During its
soft-start and soft-stop, LT3752-1 folds back switching

frequency and duty-ratio clamp, thus reduces the electri-
cal stresses over the output inductor, and transformer.
The LT3752-1 features a set of safety protections including
undervoltage, overvoltage and overcurrent protections. Its
precise overcurrent protection allows for continuous reli-
able operation under short-circuit conditions. The LT8311
controls the secondary side synchronous rectification, with
enhanced regulation of the output voltage during startup,
shutdown or recovery from a fault.
The LT3752-1 and LT8311 data sheets give complete
descriptions of the parts, operation and application infor-
mation. The data sheet must be read in conjunction with
this quick start guide for Demo Circuit 1929A.
