This fully-tested reference design is a high-efficiency, high-power-density, AC/DC adapter solution with a wide input voltage range (100- to 240-V AC) for laptop adapters and smartphone charger applications. This design consists of a front-end transition-mode (TM) power factor correction (PFC) circuit based on the UCC28056, followed by an active-clamp flyback for isolated DC/DC conversion based on the UCC28780.
