A fast start-up circuit and a method of a flyback power supply utilize a charging current that is related to an input voltage of the flyback power supply to charge a control terminal of a power switch of the flyback power supply during a start-up mode. Accordingly, the power switch can be switched, and a supply voltage of the flyback power supply rises. When an output terminal of the flyback power supply occurs a short circuit, the fast start-up circuit and the method of the present invention will decrease a maximum of a current through the power switch, thereby avoiding that the power switch is overheating.

A voltage converting controller. When output current increases from a first current value to a second current value, the voltage converting controller temporarily sets a control frequency to a maximum frequency value. After a period of time, the voltage converting controller sets the control frequency to a target control frequency corresponding to the second current value. And, when the output current increases from the first current value to the second current value, the voltage converting controller temporarily sets a secondary-side output voltage to an transient output value; and after a period of time, the voltage converting controller sets a steady state value of the secondary-side output voltage to an output voltage steady state value corresponding to the second current value.
