Hi,
I'm trying to match the SN6505B push-pull driver with either HALO TGM-050P3RL or PCA EPC3117S-2 isolation transformer.
I understand from the SN6505B datasheet that Vt product is an import factor in the transformer selection.
For the SN6505B I calculated Vtmin = VIN/(2x Fmin) = 5V(2x363KHz) = 6.8VµS
From the the transformer datasheets:
TGM-050P3RL = 5.5Vµs min > is no match because must be greater > but it works at room temperature > but saturates above 45°C
EPC3117S-2 = 11Vµs typical > is a match because is higher then required > but have many issues because transformers shorts between both secondary coils immediately or after some time.
So question is what am I overlooking in this design?
PS. In case you are wondering how secondary side is constructed I can referring to Figure 42 in the datasheet but using Vin = 5V, schottky's PMEG2005 and LDO = LT1761IS5-3.3
