Description
LT8300
100VIN Micropower Isolated Flyback
Converter with 150V/260mA Switch
Demonstration circuit 1825A is an isolated flyback con-
verter featuring the LT
®
8300. This demo circuit outputs
5.0V, and maintains tight regulation with a load current
from ~1mA to 250mA and over an input from 22V to 75V,
withanominal48V.Theoutputcurrentcapabilityincreases
with the input voltage.
TheDC1825Aneedsaverysmallminimumload(~1mA)to
regulate the output voltage, thanks to the accurate current
limit capability and ultra low switching frequency of the
LT8300 at very light load. The standby input current of
the demo circuit is less than 400µA(typical) because of
the low quiescent current design of the IC and very small
minimum load requirement.
The Performance Summary table summarizes the perfor-
mance of the demo board at room temperature. The demo

performance summary
TheLT8300isasimple-to-usehighvoltagemonolithiciso-
lated flyback converter. No third winding or opto-isolator
is required for regulation. The part sets the isolated out-
put voltage with a single external resistor and integrates
compensation and soft start circuitry inside. Boundary
mode operation provides a small magnetic solution with
improved load regulation. Low ripple Burst Mode

switch is integrated along with all high voltage circuitry
and control logic into a 5-lead ThinSOT™ package.
The LT8300 data sheet gives a complete description of
the part, operation and application information. The data
sheet must be read in conjunction with this quick start
guide for DC1825A.

Quick start proceDure
TheDC1825Aiseasytosetupto evaluatethe performance
of the LT8300. Refer to Figure 1 for proper equipment
setup and follow the procedure below.
1. With power off, connect the input power supply to the
boardthroughVIN(E1)andGND(E3)terminals.Connect
the load to the terminals VOUT+ (E4) and VOUT– (E2)
on the board.
2. Turn on the power at the input. Increase VIN slowly to
22V.
NOTE: Make sure that the input voltage is always within
spec. To operate the board with higher input/output
voltage, input capacitor, output capacitor and output
diode with higher voltage ratings are needed.
NOTE: To run overload tests on the demo board with
VIN higher than 40V, a RC snubber (200Ω, 150pF) or
Schottky plus Zener clamp circuit is recommended to
make sure the voltage spike at the switching node is
always less than 150V.
3. Checkfortheproperoutputvoltages.Theoutputshould
be regulated at 5.0V (±5%).
NOTE: The LT8300 requires very small minimum load
to maintain good output voltage regulation. A Zener
diode is placed on the output to clamp the voltage to
~5.0V. This Zener is optional, and can be replaced with
a 5.1k resistor.
4. Once the proper output voltage is established, adjust
the input voltage and load current within the operating
range and observe the output voltage regulation, ripple
voltage, efficiency and other parameters.
NOTE: When measuring the input or output voltage
ripples, care must be taken to avoid a long ground
lead on the oscilloscope probe. Measure the input or
output voltage ripple by touching the probe tip directly
across the VIN (E1) and GND (E3), or VOUT+ (E4) and
VOUT– (E2) terminals. See Figure 2 for proper scope
probe technique.
