Abstract:
A power supply system is introduced herein. The power supply system includes a power converter to supply a power source to an electronic circuit through an output cable of the power supply. A communication unit is coupled to the output cable of the power supply to develop a communication channel between the power converter and the electronic circuit in order to report the status of the power converter to the electronic circuit.
Abstract:
A control circuit includes a switch coupled to a transformer of a power converter for switching the transformer. A sampling circuit is coupled to the transformer to sample a reflected voltage of the transformer to generate a voltage signal. A switching circuit generates a switching signal to control the switch in response to the voltage signal. The minimum on time of the switching signal is changed in response to the change of an input voltage of the power converter. Because the pulse width of the reflected voltage is narrower at light load, the minimum on time of the switching signal helps the reflected voltage detection.
