Uniquely Efficient Isolated DC/DC Converter for Ultra-Low Power and Low Power Apps Reference Design
Texas Instruments
This reference design is an isolated DC/DC converter turn-key design that delives high efficiency up to 85% from ultra-low power up to 60 mW. Open-loop control removes the need for opto-couplers: while a primary side half-bridge topology operating at 60 kHz and secondary side Schottky rectification provides low-switching losses: enabling highly-efficient power conversion. The single-side populated PCB board provides a convenient tool for evaluation and on-the-fly optimization of the design with adequate headers: jumpers and test points for covering a wide variety of applications.Watch a TIDA-00349 overview video on the isolated DC/DC converter turn-key reference design.
