10-Watt Flyback Converter Using the UCC3809
1 Introduction
1.1 Design Procedure
The UCC3809EVM evaluation module is an isolated 10-W, 3.3-V converter designed for telecom input voltages,
nominally –48 Vdc but ranging from –32 Vdc to –75 Vdc. The UCC3809 economy primary-side controller is used
as the pulse-width modulator (PWM), combined with a TLV431 low-voltage adjustable-precision shunt regulator
on the secondary side. The nominal switching frequency for this converter is approximately 400 kHz. The
UCC3809 is configured with a 50% duty-cycle clamp.

The circuit, shown in Figure 1, is a discontinuous fixed-frequency current-mode controlled flyback converter.
This converter contains features such as external shut down, optocoupler isolation, programmable maximum
duty cycle, and a summing node for voltage feedback, current sense, and slope compensation.
