Applications Employing a Third Transformer Winding
A standard operating topology may employ a third wind-
ing on the transformer’s primary side that provides power
to the LTC4267-3 switching regulator via its P
(Figure 11). However, this arrangement is not inherently
self-starting. Start-up is usually implemented by the use of
an external “trickle-charge” resistor (R

voltage on C
LTC4267-3 switching regulator then turns on abruptly and
draws its normal supply current. The NGATE pin begins
switching and the external MOSFET (Q1) begins to deliver
power. The voltage on C
switching regulator draws its normal supply current, which
exceeds the delivery from R
tens of milliseconds, the output voltage approaches the
desired value. By this time, the third transformer winding
is providing virtually all the supply current required by the
LTC4267-3 switching regulator.

the relaxation oscillation behavior described previously.
This is diffi cult to determine theoretically as it depends on
the particulars of the secondary circuit and load behavior.
Empirical testing is recommended.
The third transformer winding should be designed so
that its output voltage, after accounting for the forward
diode voltage drop, exceeds the maximum P
threshold. Also, the third winding’s nominal output voltage
should be at least 0.5V below the minimum rated P
clamp voltage to avoid running up against the LTC4267-3
shunt regulator, needlessly wasting power.

In applications including a third transformer winding,

as the third winding is powering up.
If a third transformer winding is undesirable or unavail-
able, the shunt regulator allows the LTC4267-3 switching
regulator to be powered through a single dropping resistor
from V
at the expense of reduced effi ciency due to static power
dissipation in the R
