TNY280 BP PIN MAX. CAP VALUE

Posted by: hhmunjani on

I have designed a universal power supply 20-270 VAC/DC by following the application note DI-152.
I have flyback topology with two secondaries. The regulated secondary is 5V/250mA and unregulated
is 12V/250 mA.
I have put 100 uF cap on BP pin on TNY280P.
When the SMPS is loading/unloading (by a sensor turning ON/OFF a Relay of (12V/40mA)it stops working after approx. 10 minutes. It goes in Latch status and only after removing the power it turns On.
Could you please guide me what could be the reason ?
Could it be a cap on BP pin ?

Comments

To increase the current limit, First I tried 10 uF then I put 100 uF.
It works fine, but when the load is switching i.e. turning On/Off of relay it stops working.
