• Output Voltage Temperature Compensation
• Adjustable Current Limit
The LT3573 is an isolated monolithic flyback switching
regulator with an integrated 1.25A NPN power switch. This
device significantly simplifies the design of a flyback converter
since it does not require a third winding or optoisolator and can
sense the output voltage directly from the primary side flyback
waveform. The LT3573 operates over an input voltage range of
3V to 40V at output power levels up to 7 watts, and can be used
in a wide variety of industrial, medical, datacom and automotive
applications requiring isolated power.
The LT3573 operates in boundary mode, which is a variable
frequency current mode switching scheme, resulting in a total
regulation band of ±5% over a wide input voltage range and
output load current in a typical application. Boundary mode
operation also permits the use of a smaller transformer when
compared to equivalent continuous conduction mode designs.
The output voltage is easily set by two external resistors.
The LT3573 has additional features that include an onboard
LDO, programmable soft start, undervoltage lockout, adjustable
current limit and output voltage temperature compensation.
The LT3573 is available in a small thermally enhanced MSOP-
16 package and is offered in an extended and industrial operating
junction temperature range at -40°C to 125°C.

the primary-side flyback signal. The LT3574 operates over a 3V
to 40V input voltage range, has a 0.65A NPN power switch and
can deliver up to 3 watts of output power, making it well suited
for a wide variety of industrial, medical, telecom, datacom and
automotive applications.
The LT3574 operates in boundary mode, which is a variable
frequency current mode control switching scheme, resulting in
±5% regulation over the full line, load and temperature range.
Boundary mode also permits the use of a smaller transformer
compared to equivalent continuous conduction mode designs.
The output voltage is easily set by two external resistors and
the transformers turns ratio. Several off-the-shelf transformers
identified in the data sheet can be used for numerous applications.
The high level of integration and use of boundary mode operation
results in a simple, clean application solution to the traditionally
tough problem of isolated power delivery.
Additional features include an onboard low dropout regulator
for IC power, programmable soft-start, undervoltage lockout,
adjustable current limit and output voltage temperature
compensation.

Transformers for
LT3573/3574/3575
and
LT3748
Linear Technology launched a family of ICs for isolated flyback
converters which allow a very simple. In close cooperation with
Würth Elektronik, there are more than 60 standard transformers
developed which comply with the requirements of these ICs.
By selecting the correct transformers and simply changing
two resistors on the board, users can select the output voltage
required.
All transformers are optimized for a very low leakage inductance
in order to maximize efficiency of the circuit. High leakage
inductances cause high voltage spikes on the switch, which
therefore need to be reduced by a snubber network. The losses
generated in the snubber are related to the height of the voltage
spike. This means lower leakage inductance causes a lower
voltage peak and therefore lower losses.
The low leakage inductance is achieved by full flat layers and
split windings. Wire is selected to fill the layers. When needed
multiple strands are used to fully fill the layer.
As an example Figure 1 shows the winding build of transformer
750311675. You can clearly see that primary and secondary
are constructed from multiple strands (bifilar resp. quadfilar).
In addition, they are split in parallel.
So the winding order is:
Secondary 1 => Primary 1 => Auxiliary => Secondary 2 => Primary 2
Secondary 1 and 2 resp. Primary 1 and 2 are connected in
parallel.
With this structure, the typical leakage inductance of the
750311675 transformer is 130nH inductance at 100kHz.
As shown, Würth Elektronik offers a wide range of standard
transformers which are suited for the LT357x and LT3748 IC
families. These are optimized for a very low leakage inductance.
Würth Elektronik provides LTspice
®
models for all standard
transformers.
The demo boards feature simple design and small solution
size. Würth Elektronik offers a wide variety of demo kits, each
of which includes a demo board. This board can be adjusted to
input and output requirements by changing only two resistors
and the transformer, thus offering a quick and easy solution for
an isolated switch mode supply.
