• Tomaintainthe±25%CCtolerancetheprimaryinductance
tolerance should be tighter than ±10%.
• Minimize zero load consumption by reducing drain node
capacitance: Use double coated/grade 2 wire for primary
anddonotvacuumimpregnate.AvoidusinganRCsnubber
across the output diode.
• For resistive loads, increase C3 to 1 µF (electrolytic) to
allow adequate time for start-up at full load.
• For battery loads, an output LC filter is typically not
required but can be added for resistive loads to reduce
switching ripple.

• R1 can be replaced with an inductor for higher efficiency
(~10% increase).
• Adding a 1 mA to 2 mA pre-load reduces zero load voltage
by ~1 V but increases power consumption by ~10 mW.
