    摘要: A controller for a power converter is provided. The controller includes a sense current integrating circuit, a reference current integrating circuit and a drive signal generation circuit. The sense current integrating circuit performs an integrating operation to a sense current representative of a conduction current flowing through a power switch of the power converter and thereby outputs a first integrating result. The reference current integrating circuit performs another integrating operation to a reference current and thereby outputs a second integrating result. The drive signal generation circuit determines a switching period of the power switch according to a status of an output voltage of the power converter cooperative with a relative magnitude relationship between the first integrating result and the second integrating circuit. Furthermore, a controlling method for such power converter also is provided.

    摘要: The present invention discloses a power regulator with over current protection (OCP), a control circuit thereof, and a method of over current protection. The power regulator with OCP includes: a primary circuit, a transformer, and a secondary circuit. The power regulator receives AC power, and generates secondary current which is supplied to a load circuit. The primary circuit includes a control circuit which includes: a switch control circuit, a first comparator circuit, a sample and hold circuit, and a compensation circuit which is coupled to the sample and hold circuit. The compensation circuit adaptively adjusts a threshold level of the OCP according to a current sense signal, or controls a delay time of an over current detection signal to compensate an error of the OCP threshold level, which is caused by the AC power, such that the primary current may have a peak corresponding to a predetermined setting.

    摘要: For soft start of a switching regulator, the output voltage of the switching regulator is fed back to be compared with a ramp signal, in order to trigger a comparison signal when the ramp signal rises up to reach the feedback signal, to enable the switching regulator such that the output voltage changes from a residual voltage toward a target value. The low side switch of the switching regulator is kept off for a period of time after the switching regulator is enabled, so as to prevent a reverse current during the soft start period.
