Snubber Damping
Resonance between the leakage inductance and the MOSFET drain capacitance can cause false load-OVP
faults, in spite of the typical 2-μs delay in load-OVP detection. The bias winding is sensitive to the overshoot and
ringing because it is well coupled to the primary winding. A technique to eliminate the problem is to use an R

snubber instead of an RCD snubber, shown in Figure 15. A damping resistor added to the RCD snubber reduces
ringing between the drain capacitor and the inductance when the snubber diode commutates OFF.
