Micrel
FCE = safety derating factor (0.8 for most
commercial and industrial applications)
VIN(max) = maximum input voltage
VSEC = transformer secondary voltage (VOUT + VF)
For the practical example:
VCE = 65V max. for the MIC2172/3172
FCE = 0.8
VSEC = 5.6V
Then:
a ≤ 65 × 0.8 ± 6.0
5.6
a ≤ 8.2143
Next, calculate the maximum primary inductance
required to store the needed output energy with a power
switch duty cycle of 55%.

LPRI ≤ 19.23µH
Use an 18µH primary inductance to overcome circuit
inefficiencies.
To complete the design the inductance value of the
secondary is found which will guarantee that the energy
stored in the transformer during the power switch on
time will be completed discharged into the output during
the off-time. This is necessary when operating in
discontinuous-mode.
