Abstract
A power supply comprises a controller configured to control a power converter by generating drive signals that control the opening and closing of a high side switch and a low side switch. The controller is configured to selectively control the high side switch according to various modes of operation depending on operating conditions such as input voltage and load power consumption. The modes of operation can include, for example, a mode in which the high side switch is closed and then opened once during each of the series of switching cycles and a mode of operation in which the high side switch is closed and then opened two times during each of the series of switching cycles.
