In a DCM flyback with its high peak to average current ratio. When sizing a diode do you rate thediode for the maximum peak current. I have a 2A average current with 12A peaks at the start of the flyback. Repeats every
5uS.Which current rating should I look for in the diode? 3A? 6A? 15A? All of this makes a difference in the size of the diode package which I'm trying to minimize. The diode datasheets don't have a repetative peak current rating on the nonrepeataive rating.
thanks
