    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: In an example, a system comprises a boost power factor correction (PFC) converter including a thermistor, an inductor, and a transistor coupled to a common node. The system also comprises a PFC controller coupled to the common node. The PFC controller includes a comparator coupled to a threshold voltage source and to a non-control terminal of the transistor; a first flip-flop coupled to the comparator and to a control terminal of the transistor; a zero current detector coupled to the inductor; a timer coupled to the comparator and to the zero current detector; a second flip-flop coupled to the timer and to the control terminal of the transistor; an AND gate coupled to the first and second flip-flops; a third flip-flop coupled to the second flip-flop and to the control terminal of the transistor; and a fourth flip-flop coupled to the AND gate and to the control terminal of the transistor.
