Abstract
A controller for a power converter, a corresponding power converter and a corresponding method are provided. The controller for a power converter includes a rectifier configured to receive an alternating current input signal and output rectified half waves, an output capacitor and a current control device is coupled between the rectifier and the output capacitor. After reaching a first maximum voltage, power flowing is gradually reduced, and later the current provided to the output capacitor is gradually ramped up.
