Output voltage load regulation

Primary output load regulation

Figure 20 shows negligible primary output voltage variation (normalized to the value measured at IOUT = 0 A) over

the entire output current range for the L6983I with VOUTprim = 5 V.

Secondary output load regulation

Since there is no regulation loop involving the secondary output, its load regulation depends, to some extent,

on the primary load regulation and is affected by the leakage inductance (see Figure 22) of the transformer,

the voltage drops across to the Schottky diode (diode forward voltage) and the DCR of the secondary coil, as

indicated by the equation (Eq. (1)) (where only the last two contributions are considered). Minimizing all the

mentioned parameters leads to a better load regulation.

As shown in Section 6.1 , the input voltage also plays a role in the isolated output regulation, as depicted by

Figure 21.
