This technique provides very good regulation of the output voltage and galvanic isolation from the primary side
at the same time.
In Table 16 it is possible to find the design relationships useful to derive the part values. Icmax is specified in
the Datasheet (2.5mA).
The following condition should be met:

otherwise t will not be possible to find a positive value for RF. If the condition (20) is not met, an optocoupler with
a narrower CTRmin - CTRmax spread should be selected. If that is not possible, either a higher fc or a lower Φm
should be selected and the calculations from step a) to step e) redone.
