DEMO MANUAL DC1961A
LT8309
No-Opto Flyback Converter
with Synchronous Rectifier
Description
Demonstration circuit 1961A features the LT®8309, a
secondary synchronous driver in an isolated, no optocoupler, flyback converter. It regulates a 12V, 5A output
from a 36V to 72V input source.
configuration allows the synchronous MOSFET to remain
conducting at all times, even when output is shorted
to ground, so as to provide a very robust short circuit
performance.
Output regulation is handled on the primary side by the
LT3748, a boundary conduction mode flyback controller
which senses output voltage directly from the primary, resulting in a simple flyback schematic with no opto-coupler.
The Performance Summary table summarizes the performance of the demo board at room temperature. For
thermally critical applications, proper amount of air flow
can help to reduce power components’ temperature rise,
therefore greatly improving circuit reliability.
The LT8309 synchronous rectifier driver replicates the
behavior of a diode by sensing the synchronous MOSFET
drain-to-source voltage to determine its turn on period.
By replacing the diode with a N-channel MOSFET, applications are no longer restricted by the heat constraints of
the rectifier diode.
On the DC1961A, the LT8309 is biased from the rectified drain voltage node of secondary side synchronous
MOSFET, not directly connecting to output voltage. This
The LT8309 data sheet gives a complete description of
the part, operation and application information. The data
sheet must be read in conjunction with this quick start
guide for demo circuit 1961A.

Quick Start Procedure
Demonstration circuit 1961A is easy to set up to evaluate the performance of the LT8309. Refer to Figure 1 for
proper measurement equipment setup and follow the
procedure below:
1. With power off, connect the input power supply to the
board through VIN and GND terminals. Connect the
load to the terminals VOUT+ and VOUT– on the board.
2. Turn on the power at the input.
NOTE: Make sure that the input voltage does not exceed
72V. To operate the board with higher input/output voltage, input capacitor, output capacitor and MOSFETs with
higher voltage ratings are needed.

3. Check for the proper output voltages. The output should
be regulated at 12V (±5%).
NOTE: The LT3748 requires a minimum load to maintain
good output voltage regulation. On the DC1961A, in order
to avoid pre-loading, a Zener diode is placed between its
VOUT+ and VOUT– to serve as a minimum load.
4. Once the proper output voltage is established, adjust
the input voltage and load current within the operating
range and observe the output voltage regulation, ripple
voltage, efficiency and other parameters.
NOTE: When measuring the input or output voltage ripples,
care must be taken to avoid a long ground lead on the
oscilloscope probe. Measure the input or output voltage
ripple by touching the probe tip directly across the VIN
and GND, or VOUT+ and VOUT– terminals. See Figure 2 for
proper scope probe technique.
