Abstract
Embodiments of a saturation controller for a flyback switched-mode power supply (SMPS) and a method for saturation control for a flyback SMPS involve measuring a length related to a primary stroke in the flyback SMPS, comparing the length related to the primary stroke to a length related to a previous primary stroke in the flyback SMPS to generate a comparison result and adjusting a switching period time of the flyback SMPS based on the comparison result such that saturation of the flyback SMPS is reduced.
