Abstract
A control circuit for a boost converter can include: a comparison circuit configured to compare an input voltage of the boost converter against an output voltage of the boost converter, and to generate first and second control signals; an option circuit configured to provide a third control signal generated by a drive circuit of the boost converter to a control terminal of a synchronous power transistor of the boost converter, in accordance with the first and second control signals, when the output voltage is greater than the input voltage; and the option circuit being configured to provide a DC voltage to the control terminal of the synchronous power transistor, in accordance with the first and second control signals, in order to provide a current path for an inductor current of the boost converter through the synchronous power transistor, when the output voltage is not greater than the input voltage.
