    摘要: A power converter can include: a rectifier circuit; a silicon controlled dimmer coupled between an AC input terminal and an input terminal of the rectifier circuit; and a bleeder circuit coupled to an output terminal of the rectifier circuit, and being configured to provide a bleeder current after the silicon controlled dimmer is turned off. A method of controlling a power converter, can include: generating a bleeder current flowing though output terminals of a rectifier circuit of the power converter after a silicon controlled dimmer is turned off; and where the silicon controlled dimmer coupled to the rectifier circuit receives an AC input voltage.

    摘要: A power converter can include an input circuit having a primary winding and a primary power switch coupled in series between an input terminal and the ground; a first output circuit having a first secondary winding which is coupled with the primary winding; a second output circuit having a second secondary winding coupled with the primary winding and at least one secondary power switch; a first control circuit that controls the primary power switch to be turned on and off to adjust an output signal of the first output circuit; and a second control circuit which controls the secondary power switch to be turned on and off to adjust an output signal of the second output circuit. The secondary power switch can be turned on before the primary power switch is turned off in a first state in one switching cycle, in order to reduce the switching interference.

    摘要: A control circuit for a switching converter having a main power switch and a freewheeling circuit, can be configured to: control the freewheeling circuit to be turned on in a first time interval after the main power switch is turned off; control the freewheeling circuit to be turned on in a second time interval after the first time interval, in order to reduce turn-on loss of the main power switch; and where the first time interval and the second time interval do not overlap each other in a switching cycle.
