voltage at each node is at the value shown in parentheses in the figure, the soft start ends. The soft start
time is thus given by the following formula:

Application Examples for Fuller Exploitation of Power Supply Functions
A number of application examples are briefly described below.

A soft start is a start method in which the PWM pulse width is gradually increased when the power
supply is activated. This prevents the stress on the transformer and switch element caused by a rapid
increase in the PWM pulse width, and also prevents overshoot when the secondary-side output voltage
rises. The circuit diagram is shown in figure 14.

capacitance between Vref and GND should be increased to around 4.7 F to 10 F.
