Abstract
In described examples, a converter circuit includes a primary-side ground, a current sensor, a control signal generator, first and second control switches, and a transformer with a center-tapped primary-side coil. A first terminal of the first control switch is coupled to a first terminal of the coil and a first input of the current sensor. A first terminal of the second control switch is coupled to a second terminal of the coil and a second input of the current sensor. Second terminals of the first and second control switches are coupled to ground. The control signal generator closes the first control switch and opens the second control switch in a first phase; opens the first control switch and closes the second control switch in a second phase that alternates with the first phase; and adjusts first phase duration in response to current sensor output, without changing converter period duration.
