First calculate the maximum duty cycle, d(max). To cal-
culate this assume that at maximum load/minimum line
conditions, the converter will be at the continuous con-
duction boundary and there will be no idle time after the
inductors are discharged. For all other load/line condi-
tions, the UCC3890 will stretch the off time, to create an
idle time after the inductors are discharged, in order to
