摘要： A switching power converter. Example methods include: switching a primary switch of the converter at a switching frequency, the converter having a feedback circuit acting as a low pass filter with a cutoff frequency, and each cycle of the switching frequency including a discharge mode and a charge mode that ends at a peak current through a primary winding of a transformer; generating, during the switching, a jitter signal having a shape and a jitter frequency; and ending a plurality of consecutive charge modes at a plurality of respective peak current values of current through the primary winding, the plurality of peak current values define an average value, and where peak current values higher than the average value define an envelope in the shape of the jitter signal, and peak current values lower than the average value define an envelope in the shape of the jitter signal that is inverted.
