-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I've read as much as I can find on switchers, but I always come back to one same problem. Once it's going, an off-line switcher is simple. It's the getting going that's tough. Especially in flyback configuration. I've looked up alot of infomation on the web, and read through the switching powersupply design contest a year or more back in the PICList archives. Russell's design comes close to the optimal, but not quite. So, what I want to know is if anyone has come across a guide for different kinds of switchers with a high efficiency at 170VDC input and, say 25VDC output. Preferably isolated and with an isolated feedback path. What I'd like to be able to design is a powersupply with several amps output, 90VDC to 250VDC input, true pulse-width modulation (i.e. constant frequency, variable width) via optocoupler for feedback, using a flyback configureation, and an operating frequency in the near MHZ for good "power/weight ratio" in the transformer.
