NCP1200
If the leakage inductance is kept low, the MTD1N60E can
withstand accidental avalanche energy, e.g. during a
high–voltage spike superimposed over the mains, without
the help of a clamping network. If this leakage path
permanently forces a drain–source voltage above the
MOSFET BVdss (600 V), a clamping network is mandatory
and must be built around Rclamp and Clamp. Dclamp shall
react extremely fast and can be a MUR160 type. To calculate
the component values, the following formulas will help you:
V
: the clamping ripple, could be around 20 V
Another option lies in implementing a snubber network
ripple
which will damp the leakage oscillations but also provide
more capacitance at the MOSFET’s turn–off. The peak
voltage at which the leakage forces the drain is calculated

Typical values for Rsnubber and Csnubber in this 4W
application could respectively be 1.5 kW and 47 pF. Further
tweaking is nevertheless necessary to tune the dissipated
power versus standby power.
