Abstract
An integrated circuit power factor controller includes a feedback input terminal for receiving a feedback signal representative of an output voltage, a control terminal for receiving an error signal and adapted to be coupled to a compensation network, a drive terminal for providing a drive signal and adapted to be coupled to a transistor, and a pulse width modulator. The pulse width modulator is coupled to the feedback input terminal, the control terminal, and the drive terminal, and provides the drive signal having a duty cycle formed in response to the feedback signal. The pulse width modulator includes a line sensing multiplier having a first input for receiving the error signal, a second input for receiving the drive signal, and an output for providing a multiplied signal, and the pulse width modulator further provides the drive signal in response to the multiplied signal.
