TPS23734:a planar transformer for a DC/DC flyback converter

Part Number: TPS23734

Tool/software:

Please tell me how to design a planar transformer for a DC/DC flyback converter  for

TPS23734 ?

  • Hi Alexander,

    Thanks for reaching out! TPS23734EVM is 5V active clamp forward converter. Please see design parameters suggestions for different topologies:

    5V forward transformer:

     Turns ratio SEC : PRI : AUX = 1 : (4–6) : (2–2.8)

     Lm = 90–165 µH, Isat > 1.5 A

    12V forward transformer: 

     Turns ratio SEC : PRI : AUX = 1 : (1.8–3) : (0.9–1.1)

     Lm = 90–165 µH, Isat > 1.5 A

    5V flyback transformer:

     Turns ratio SEC : PRI : AUX : BIAS = 1 : (5–9) : (2–2.8) : (1–1.2)

     Lm = 50–150 µH, Isat > 2.6A @ Npri_min & Lm_min

    12V flyback transformer:

     Turns ratio SEC : PRI : AUX : BIAS = 1 : (2–3.5) : (0.9–1.1) : (0.4–0.6)
     Lm = 50–150 µH, Isat > 2.6A @ Npri_min & Lm_min

    Best regards,

    Diang
