(RCD RESET) IN FORWARD CONVERTERS

can anyone provide me the design equations involved in designing Resistor, Capacitor, and diode in RCD RESET FORWARD CONVERTERS

  • Sudeep,

    This old Unitrode paper discusses the pros and cons of different Forward converter reset techniques, incliding RCD, and may be useful to you:

    Since the RCD clamp is pretty much the same thing as an RCD snubber clamp (design for long RC time constant to achieve approx. constant clamp voltage level), this paper on snubber design might also be useful to you:

    There are many more useful TI/Unitrode Power Supply Design Seminar papers available here, it's worth bookmarking this site for future reference:
