3. PCB LAY-OUT
The layout of the switching power supply is very important in order to minimize noise and interference. The high switching current loop areas should be kept as small as possible to reduce the radiated electromagnetic emissions. Figure 1 shows the board layout.
In order to meet safety agencies' requirements, there needs to be an adequate clearance of about 6mm between the high and low voltage sides of the circuit.
The power grounds need to be separated from the small signal grounds. The current in the power ground changes very quickly in time; resulting in large transient that induces voltage shifts, which in turn can disturb critical, sensitive small signal currents. Any disturbance or shift of ground in the small signal ground will upset c ritical reference pat hs. Therefore, poor g rounding rout ing can ma nifest itself as poor load regulation, or excessive switching noises on the output.

4. GENERAL CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This board is a fly-back regulator delivering 0.8A at 5V. The AC input is rectified and filtered by the diode D1, D2, D3, D4, the bulk capacitor C1, and C2 to generate the high voltage DC bus applied to the primary winding of the transformer, TR1. C1, L1, and C2 provide EMI filtering for the circuit.D9, D10 form the snubber circuit needed to reduce the leakage spike and voltage ringing on the drain pin of VIPer12A.
The output voltage is reg ulated with a TL431 (U3) via an optocoupler (U2) to the feedback pin. The output voltage ripple is controlled with the capacitor, C7, with an additional LC PI filter configuration made up of L2 and C8. It is possible to modify the output voltages by changing the transformer turns ratio and modifying the resistance values of R6 and R7 in the feedback loop.

5.1 Schema tic general description
As the total input power dissipation at no load condition of this solution is less than 0.1W, we have to put our attention to save the power loss es of each c om ponent as m uch as p os sible. Below w e will intr oduce details for the major approaches which we adopt in this demo board.
5.2 Solutions for energy saving
(A) Losses of VIPer12A controller. As on this demo board, the power losses of the control part of VIPer12A can be calculated by formula (1).

(B) Optimized voltage source for optocoupler. In a fly-back topology, the voltage source of optocoupler primary side is normally connected to the V

the IC directly , but in this board, in order to save energy, another winding is inserted in the transformer for supplying the optoc ouple r; the voltage supplied with this w indin g is lower than the V
value (typical

(C) Snubber circuit configuration. An RCD clamp is a popular cheap solution, however it dissipates power even at no load condition: there
is at least a reflected voltage ac ross t he clamp resistor at all t imes. T he p ower l osses on resistor can be calculated using the formula below:

(D) Optional for the voltage reference devices (TS431 or TL431 or Zener) The TS431, the TL431 and the Zener can be used as voltage regulators. TS431 shows the low minimum
operation current with the typical value of 150µA. This feature is qu ite useful, because we can remove the biasing resistor without any voltage regulation performance loss. With this device we can save t he power losses on the biasing resistor with typical value of 5-8mW.
TL431 is a cost effective solution for the constant voltage. The weakness of this device, in this special application, is its operation currents is higher than 1mA. In order to get good voltage regulation performance at full load condition, a bias i ng resistor is a must, but this leads to an add itional power loss.
If the requirement of the perf ormance of out p ut voltage is not so tigh t a zener can be u sed as voltage reference. The standby power in no load condition is lower than 0.1W with the 3 optional solutions of voltage reference above. The best solution depends on customers' requirements.
(E) Short circuit the resistors for current limitation on t he auxiliary windings which for V

8. CONCLUSIONS
When the board works in standby, it cons um es less than 0.1W m eeting the "Blue Ange l" Norm. The total power consumption meas ured a t 100V dc in put with zero load at output is approximately 50mW, while at 380Vdc input this value is about 80mW.
This unit operates in burst mode when the output load is reduced to zero and normal operation is resumed automatically when the powe r gets back to a level higher than the standby power. The output voltage remains regulated even when the board operates in burst mode.
