Abstract
An apparatus includes a zero steady state error regulator with a first input terminal operatively coupled to an isolated power supply primary voltage. A PWM (pulse width modulation) generator is operative to generate two identical PWM signals, each having a duty ratio proportional to the primary voltage. The PWM generator has an input terminal operatively coupled to the zero steady state error regulator output terminal, and has a first output terminal operatively coupled to a second input terminal of the zero steady state error regulator to a provide a feedback signal. An optical coupler has an input terminal operatively coupled to a second output terminal of the PWM generator. A scaling circuit has an input terminal operatively coupled to the optical coupler output terminal and has a scaling circuit output terminal to provide a scaled PWM output signal having a duty ratio that is linearly proportional to the primary voltage.
