Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LM5036
Hi,
We are looking for a DC-DC solution. Is it(UCC28C42) good to use for 240W DC-DC?
Requirement:
Vin : 40~160VDC
Vout: 24VDC
Iout: 10A
Best Regards,
Aaron

Hi,
I suggest to use LM5036 (half-bridge). UCC28C42 is a single ended controller and 240W is a bit high for single ended controller. But 240W is really in a blur area where a single-ended controller may still be ok although its power is a bit too high which asks a bigger transformer and parallel MOSFETs and lower frequency.
Hi
We try WEBENCH® Designer LM5036. The max voltage must less than 100V.
Do you have any recommand?

Hi,
You need to add external MOSFET drivers. Also not using the on chip high voltage startup.
Alternatively, you can use push-pull topology, LM5036 is ok for push-pull, and in this case, the on-chip MOSFET drivers can be used. But for high voltage startup you still need to use external circuit (similar to UCC28C42 when you consider startup).
On push-pull, you may also consider UCC2808A but its MOSFET driver capability is 0.5A/1A for source and sink. You need to calculate to see if ok.
