A switching power supply system includes a transformer having a primary winding, a secondary winding and a tertiary winding, a switching device inputted to the primary winding carrying out switching operation on the basis of a first control signal or a second control signal, an output voltage producing section rectifying and smoothing a voltage generated in the secondary winding to produce an output voltage, an output voltage detecting section producing an output voltage detection signal based on a voltage generated in the tertiary winding, a checking pulse generator generating pulses of the first control signal, and a switching controlling section producing the second control signal on the basis of the output voltage detection signal. The switching power supply system is capable of carrying out stable control of the output voltage on the secondary winding side of the transformer with a low power loss.

Switching power supply system and control circuit of the switching power supply system

A synchronous rectification switching power source device accurately determines the timing of the turning off of a synchronous rectifier switching element regardless of the state of the load, and a synchronous rectification period is utilized to the maximum. The switching power source device is configured of a main FET connected to a primary winding of a transformer, a snubber circuit connected to the primary winding, a synchronous rectifier FET connected to a secondary winding of the transformer, a diode connected to the synchronous rectifier FET, a synchronous rectifier FET drain voltage detection unit, an output voltage detection unit, and a drive control unit. The drive control unit accurately determines the timing of the turning off of the synchronous rectifier switching element using a unit that detects the on/off state of the main FET, a variable pulse generator unit, a count value generated by a counter unit, and a threshold value.

A flyback type switching power supply includes between P and N of a direct current output a sudden load change detector circuit, which normally has no power consumption, that detects only a transient fluctuation of a direct current output voltage, and starts the switching of a primary side semiconductor switch when there is no load or a light load, even when the semiconductor switch is in an off state, thereby enabling the detection of the direct current output voltage in a tertiary winding, and suppressing a drop in the direct current output voltage.

A switching power supply device and method for control thereof, including an input voltage generating unit, a transformer, an output voltage generating unit, a MOS transistor, an output voltage detecting unit, a switching control unit, and a power supply unit. The output voltage detecting unit detects a transformer tertiary winding voltage, compares it with a first reference value, compares the differentiated tertiary winding voltage with a second reference value, and determines the start and end of a detection period based on the two comparisons. The output voltage detecting unit also samples and holds the voltage with two sampling pulses within the detection period, selects one of the two sampled and held voltages, and outputs the selected voltage when the detection period ends.
