UCC3580EVM, configured for either active clamp operation or hard-switched operation, as shown in Figure 1. Close the ac line switch and verify that the UCC3580EVM is operating correctly (12 V should be measured by the hand-held DVM on the converter output). Using the appropriate oscilloscope probes, observe the main transistor drain source voltage (TP14 to TP13) and the cathode to anode voltage of the output rectifier (TP6 to TP8).
Begin with an UCC3580EVM in the active-clamp configuration (original configuration). Refer to Table 3 and Table 4 for the components to remove and add, respectively in order for the UCC3580EVM to match the schematic in Figure 3. The additional components in Table 4 are supplied in the kit that is included with the UCC3580EVM.
