Abstract
Flyback convertors have a simplicity and cost advantage at low power levels . Various multi-chip and monolithic devices are used for 120/240V(RMS) inpu ts, but their typical maximum voltage rating of 700V prevents their use at rectified line voltages much over 400V. This feature describes a technique that allows the flyback converter to be used at rectified line voltages wel l above 400V.
