General Purpose
Isolated Flyback Controller
The LT
®
1725 is a monolithic switching regulator control-
ler specifically designed for the isolated flyback topology.
It drives the gate of an external MOSFET and is generally
powered from a third transformer winding. These features
allow for an application input voltage limited only by
external power path components. The third transformer
winding also provides output voltage feedback informa-
tion, such that an optoisolator is not required. Its gate
drive capability coupled with a suitable external MOSFET
can deliver load power up to tens of watts.
The LT1725 has a number of features not found on most
other switching regulator ICs. By utilizing current mode
switching techniques, it provides excellent AC and DC line
regulation. Its unique control circuitry can maintain regu-
lation well into discontinuous mode in most applications.
Optional load compensation circuitry allows for improved
load regulation. An optional undervoltage lockout pin
halts operation when the application input voltage is too
low. An optional external capacitor implements a soft-
start function. A 3V output is available at up to several mA
for powering primary side application circuitry.
