Abstract
A system for a linear isolated power supply circuit may include a boost converter having a boost inductor winding and an auxiliary side winding, the auxiliary side winding configured to be magnetically coupled to the boost inductor winding. The linear isolated power supply circuit includes a voltage sensing circuit coupled to the auxiliary side winding, the voltage sensing circuit configured to measure an input voltage at an isolated circuit associated with the auxiliary winding. The linear isolated power supply circuit includes a processor configured to receive the measured input voltage from the voltage sensing circuit and to cause at least one operation to be performed by the processor based at least in part upon the measured input voltage. Methods and apparatuses corresponding to the system are provided.
