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.

mance of the demo board at room temperature. The demo

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
