Abstract
A circuit for regulating an output level of a power converter includes an adjustment circuit to be coupled to a receive a feedback signal representative of an output level of the power converter. The adjustment circuit is coupled to generate a comparison result signal. A control circuit is coupled to receive the comparison result signal and an oscillating signal. A switch including a first terminal, a second terminal and a control terminal is coupled to the control circuit. The control circuit is coupled to generate a control signal to control switching of the switch. The switch is operable to couple or decouple the first terminal and the second terminal in response to the control signal received at the control terminal. The control signal is responsive to the oscillating signal and to a change in the comparison result signal.
