Hello all,
I am currently researching different converter topologies, and frequently come across the statement that forward and flyback isolated converters can achieve intermediate power output levels of approximately 100-200W. However, much less frequently, do I see any explanation as to why this is the case. I am looking to design a converter with a total power output of 500W+, and thus would like to definitively rule out the use of these converters. Again, many say that they can be used in such applications but the efficiency at these powers causes this design choice to be poor, while offering not much explanation as to why. I would be very grateful if someone could clear this up for me.
Regards,
Tom
