ISOLATED 2W 24VDC TO 5VDC FLYBACK DC DC – REFERENCE DESIGN

ISOLATED 2W 24VDC-TO-5VDC FLYBACK DC-DC – REFERENCE DESIGN

The MAXREFDES111# reference design from Maxim Integrated is a compact 24V input flyback-converter module that features 5V at 400mA output. Transformer selection is often the most difficult step in isolated power design. Multiple transformers (Wurth Electronics 750315847, HanRun HR041087, and Sumida 06343-T588) have been qualified for this design, simplifying the process of transformer selection. The reference design delivers a
