I'm designing an active clamp flyback converter. I wanted to know that if I am selecting a frequency of 100kHz or 500kHz, would it make any difference as to which frequency is selected?
My doubt is that - Is it necessary to have a high frequency for active clamp converters.... apart from the fact that at higher frequencies reduces the size of the magnetic components and also the size of the overall converter. I wanted to know more on how do we select a particular frequency for active clamp dc dc converters.Of course it matters.
But without more details, your question is like "I am buying a car- 20" or 22" wheels?"
No context- no answers.
Thanks. I will do that.It's generally a tradeoff between efficiency, which tends to go down with increase in frequency, and the size and cost of the magnetics.
So you try to find the sweet spot that's a good compromise between the two.
