Abstract
A controller for use in a power converter includes a secondary controller coupled to receive a feedback signal representative of an output of the power converter to generate d a request signal. A primary controller is coupled to receive the request signal to generate a primary drive signal. The primary drive signal is coupled to control switching of a power switch to control a transfer of energy from the input to the output of the power converter. A frequency to on-time converter included in the primary controller is coupled to receive the request signal. The frequency to on-time converter is coupled to control the duration of on-time pulses included in the primary drive signal in response to a period of the request signal.
