摘要： A time-differential analog comparator includes a variable frequency signal source, a timing circuit, a counting circuit, and an evaluation circuit. The variable frequency signal source provides a repeating signal having a frequency corresponding to a value of an analog input. The timing circuit defines a timing sequence including a first time interval and a second time interval and generates a mode select signal at a time between the first time interval and the second time interval to stimulate a change in the analog input. The counting circuit is coupled to the timing circuit to count the periods of the repeating signal. The evaluation circuit coupled generates a decision signal in response to a count of the periods of the repeating signal indicated by the counting circuit. The first time interval is not equal to the second time interval to generate an offset in the decision signal.

摘要： An example power supply includes an energy transfer element, a switch and a controller. The controller includes a logic circuit and a constant current control circuit. The logic circuit generates a drive signal to control the switch in response to a control signal. The constant current control circuit generates the control signal in response to a received input current sense signal, input voltage sense signal, and output voltage sense signal. An integrator included in the constant current control circuit integrates the input current sense signal to generate an integrated signal representative of a charge taken from the input voltage source. The constant current control circuit is adapted to generate the control signal to provide a constant current at the output of the power supply such that the integrated signal is proportional to a ratio of the output voltage sense signal to the input voltage sense signal.

摘要： Techniques are disclosed to detect a fault in the feedback circuit of a switching power supply while the power supply operates in a mode where the output is below its regulated value. The power supply delivers maximum power at a given switching frequency without a feedback signal while the output is below its regulated value. A fault protection circuit substantially reduces the average output power if there is no feedback signal for the duration of a fault time. When there is no feedback signal, the power supply increases the maximum output power by increasing the switching frequency before the end of the fault time to increase the output to a regulated value. The presence of a feedback signal when the output reaches a regulated value restores the original switching frequency and returns the output to its unregulated value. The absence of a feedback signal at the end of the fault time engages the fault protection circuit to substantially reduce the output power.

In one aspect, a power supply control circuit includes a controller to be coupled to a switch to regulate an output of a power supply in response to a feedback signal and a parameter change signal.

In one aspect, a switching regulator includes a switch that is to be coupled between a power supply input and an energy transfer element of the power supply.

The oscillating signal is coupled to oscillate at a first frequency under a first moderate load condition at the power supply output. The oscillating signal is coupled to oscillate at a second frequency under a second peak load condition at the power supply output.
