input box is blue colored
output box is green colored
Note: n1 is primary turn number, n2 is main output, n3 is VCC biasing
Equation used: V(switch) = Vin + (Vout + Vd) *(n1/n2)
Equation used: V(diode) = Vout + Vin / (n1/n2)
Equation used: duty = ((n1/n2) * (Vout + Vd) ) / (Vin + (n1/n2) * (Vout + Vd) )
Maximum available duty in NCP1271 is 80% (75% min, 85% max)
Equation used: R(cs) = 1 / Ipk
Equation used: Pin, max = duty * Vin * Ipk
Equation used: Pout = Iout * Vout
Equation used: eff = Pout / Pin
Need to check if it is too high

Note: Avaliable frequency options in NCP1271 is 65kHz and 100kHz

Equation used: L = Vin * duty / Ipk / freq
Note: Higher inductor value makes CCM
Equation used: delta(i) = duty / freq * Vin / L

Equation used: n1/n3 = n1/n2 * (Vout1+Vd1) / (Vout2+Vd2)

Equation used: V(diode) = Vout + Vin / (n1/n3)

Equation used: V(switch) = Vin + (Vout + Vd) *(n1/n2)

Equation used: Power = (voltage / resistor) * discharge-duty

Equation used: Power = * L(leakage) * Ipk * freq

Equation used: Voltage = sqrt( power * resistor)
Equation used: Max voltage = input voltage + snubber voltage
Equation used: C > 2 * Power / ( voltage * freq )

Note: Application range of skip resistor is between 30k and 82k.

Equation used: V(pin1) = 43A * R(skip)
Equation used: D(skip) = (R(skip)*I(skip) - 1.25) / 0.73 / 3 * 80%
Need to compare with the duty in Part III to check if it is too high

Notes:
1. VCC capacitor has to be as close as possible to the NCP1271.
2. Decoupling capacitors in pin 1 and pin 2 are typically 1nF.
3. Ramp resistor range is typically 1k. Lower value makes better transient response.
4. When no skip resistor on pin 1, the nominal voltage is 6.8V and it is close to the 8V latch threshold.
