Abstract: Disclosed examples provide DC-DC converters and control circuits to provide high and low-side driver signals and to selectively adjust a delay time between a low-side switching device turning off and a high-side switching device turning on according to a comparator signal, including a clocked comparator circuit referenced to a switching node to sample the voltage across the high-side switching device in response to a first edge of the high-side driver signal, and to generate the comparator signal indicating a polarity of the sampled high-side switch voltage to facilitate zero voltage switching of the high-side switching device.

Abstract: Embodiments include systems, methods, and apparatuses for controlling off-time during a burst mode in an LLC converter. In one embodiment, a circuit comprises an LLC converter having a primary side and a burst mode controller, the burst mode controller configured to monitor, on the primary side of the LLC converter, electrical current, and in response to a determination that the electrical current is below a first threshold, increase an off-time for switches in the LLC converter and in response to a determination that the electrical current is above a second threshold that is higher than the first threshold, decrease the off-time for the switches in the LLC converter.

Abstract: A power converter includes a power stage having a switch-node of a switched-mode power supply that is coupled to an input voltage node by a power field-effect transistor (FET) to energize an inductive circuit and is coupled to a ground node by a synchronous rectifier in parallel with the inductive circuit. The power converter also includes a controller coupled to the power stage. The controller controls switching of the power FET and synchronous rectifier in a complimentary manner. The controller switches on the power FET during a first switching cycle. Subsequently, the controller switches on the synchronous rectifier and, in response to a current through the inductive circuit being approximately zero, switches off the synchronous rectifier. Subsequently, the controller switches on the synchronous rectifier again to generate a negative current through the inductive circuit prior to entering a second switching cycle.
