singleconstant-voltageoutputof24Vat2A.Itisoptimized
to operate over a wide AC input voltage range (90VAC to
265VAC, 47Hz to 63Hz). Output voltage accuracy stays
within ±5% over the whole input voltage and load range. It
provides a high power factor (>0.95) enabling the design
to be used worldwide. It is also designed to comply with
the IEC 61000-3-2 Class D harmonics standard and the
EN55015B conducted EMI standard.
The LT3798 controls an isolated flyback converter in
boundary mode, suitable for applications with voltage or
current regulation. Its novel sensing scheme delivers a

IMPORTANT NOTE TO CUSTOMERS:
HIGH VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT ON THE DEMO
CIRCUIT, AND CAN LEAD TO LETHAL INJURIES
TO HUMAN BODY. ONLY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL
SHOULD OPERATE IT. IT IS STRONGLY RECOM-
MENDED TO USE SAFETY GLASSES AND AN
ISOLATION TRANSFORMER.
NOTE: Improper components replacement on the demo
circuit can cause performance deteriorations, circuit
malfunction, property damage, and even life threatening
injuries.ContactLinearTechnologyapplicationsengineers
for proper component replacement.
Demonstration circuit 1817B is easy to set up to evaluate
theperformanceoftheLT3798.RefertoFigure1forproper
measurementequipment setup and follow thisprocedure:
1. Connect an adjustable load between + and – output
terminals.
2. With power off, connect the input power supply to
Line (L) input and Neutral (N) input.
3. Turn on the power at the input.
NOTE. Make sure that the input voltage does not exceed
the maximum input voltage (265VAC).
4. Check for the proper output voltage.
Once the proper output voltage is established, adjust the
inputvoltageand/ortheloadandobservetheoutputvoltage
regulation, efficiency, power factor and other parameters.
