    Abstract: A flyback power converter includes a transformer having an auxiliary winding for generating an auxiliary voltage and providing a supply voltage on a supply node; a primary side controller circuit which is powered by the supply voltage from the supply node; and a high voltage (HV) start-up circuit. The HV start-up circuit is coupled to an high voltage signal through a HV input terminal and generates the supply voltage through a supply output terminal, wherein when the supply voltage does not exceed a start-up voltage threshold, a HV start-up switch conducts the HV input terminal and the supply output terminal to provide the supply voltage, and when the supply voltage exceeds a start-up voltage threshold, the HV start-up switch is OFF. The HV start-up circuit and the primary side controller circuit are packaged in two separate integrated circuit packages respectively.

    Abstract: A control circuit for a power converting circuit includes a multifunctional pin, a pulse-width-modulation (PWM) signal generating circuit, a voltage detecting circuit and a zero current detecting circuit. The voltage detecting circuit detects a signal on the multifunctional pin. When the signal on the multifunctional pin is greater than a predetermined value, the voltage detecting circuit configures the PWM signal generating circuit to intermittently conduct a current switch of the power converting circuit. The zero current detecting circuit detects the signal of the multifunctional pin to determine the conduction status of the current switch. When the signal of the multifunctional pin is less than the predetermined value, the voltage detecting circuit configures the PWM signal generating circuit to turn off the current switch.
