    Abstract: A power converter circuit includes a power stage that includes a transformer and a switch. The switch can be controlled in response to a PWM signal to provide a primary current through a primary winding of the transformer to induce a secondary current in a secondary winding of the transformer to generate an output voltage. The power stage includes a switching node between the switch and the primary winding having a switching voltage. The circuit also includes a switching controller configured to generate the PWM signal in response to a ramp signal. The ramp signal can have an amplitude of a slope that is proportional to a decay rate of a magnetizing current of the transformer and generated in response to feedback from the power stage. The switch can be activated in response to the switching voltage having an amplitude of approximately zero volts based on the amplitude of the ramp signal.

    Abstract: One example includes a circuit that includes a transistor control circuit having an input and an output adapted to be coupled to the output of the transistor control circuit and can provide a slew-rate compensation voltage proportional to a slew-rate of a control voltage of the transistor. A reference voltage source can be coupled to the slew-rate compensator to provide a reference voltage at the output of the reference voltage source, the slew-rate compensator configured to add the slew-rate compensation voltage to the reference voltage to provide an adjusted reference voltage at the output of the slew rate compensator. A reference comparator having a first input, a second input and an output is coupled to the input of the transistor control circuit. The first input can be coupled to the control terminal of the transistor, and the second input can be coupled to the output of the slew-rate compensator.
