A low cost Fly-Buck converter for 12V applications
The Fly-Buck converter has gained attention recently as an effective means to provide an isolated voltage rail. Many useful design notes exist and applications examples use Texas Instruments (TI) Constant On-Time (COT) ICs to provide one or more isolated rails for Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) isolated power, multiple isolated IGBT gate driver power rails, isolated RS485 interfaces and numerous other applications.
