DI-25
• At zero load, maximum input voltage, the bias voltage
across C4 should be ≥8 V (12 V to 15 V under nominal
conditions).
• Good layout practices should be followed:
- LocateC5,C6andR4closetoU1withgroundsreturned
to the SOURCE pin.

(EPCOS B-65821-A6008-T1 or equivalent)
- Minimize the primary and secondary loop areas to
reduce parasitic leakage inductance.

• Consult AN-31 for additional design tips and information.
• Choose C17 to provide adequate gate charge to Q2 at low
line (typically 5 V) and to limit Q2 gate to a safe voltage at
high line (typically less than 20 V).
