Fly-back Converter
Fly-back converter is the most commonly
used SMPS circuit
Low output power applications
The output voltage needs to be isolated
from the input main supply
The output power may vary from few watts
to less than 100 watts.

Fly-back Converter
The circuit can offer single or multiple
isolated output voltages
Operate over wide range of input voltage
variation.
In respect of energy-efficiency, fly-back
power supplies are inferior to many other
SMPS circuits but its simple topology and
low cost makes it popular in low output
power range. Typical efficiency of a fly-back
converter is around 65%-75%.

Mode 1:
Mode 2:
The primary and secondary windings of the flyback transformer dont carry current
simultaneously
The fly-back transformer works differently from a
normal transformer.

After complete transfer of the magnetic field energy to the output, the secondary winding
emf as well as current fall to zero and the diode in series with the winding stops
conducting.
The output capacitor however continues to supply uninterrupted voltage to the load. This
part of the circuit operation has been referred to as Mode-3 of the circuit operation
Discontinuous Conduction Mode

Snubber
In order that snubber capacitor does not take away any energy stored in the
mutual flux of the windings, the minimum steady state snubber capacitor
voltage should be greater than the reflected secondary voltage on the primary
side,
Vc > Vo x N1/N2
by keeping RC time constant of the snubber >> switching time period.
For initial powering up of the circuit the control power is drawn from the input
supply through a resistor Rs
