Primary Inductance Requirement
In addition to the primary inductance requirement for
the minimum switch-off time, the LT8300 has minimum
switch-on time that prevents the chip from turning on
the power switch shorter than approximately 160ns. This
minimumswitch-ontimeismainlyforleading-edgeblank-
ing the initial switch turn-on current spike. If the inductor
current exceeds the desired current limit during that time,
oscillation may occur at the output as the current control
loopwillloseitsabilitytoregulate.Therefore,thefollowing
equation relating to maximum input voltage must also be
followedinselectingprimary-sidemagnetizinginductance:
The LT8300 obtains output voltage information from the
reflected output voltage on the SW pin. The conduction
of secondary current reflects the output voltage on the
primarySWpin.Thesample-and-holderroramplifierneeds

voltage. In order to ensure proper sampling, the second-
ary winding needs to conduct current for a minimum of
350ns. The following equation gives the minimum value
