Abstract
An integrated circuit (IC) for controlling a power converter. The IC includes a controller that, in a first sensing period, enables a sensing circuit of the power converter and electrically connects an output node of an op amp of the sensing circuit and a first node of a capacitor of the sensing circuit, creating a first voltage across the capacitor; in a period between the first sensing period and a second sensing period, disables the sensing circuit and disconnects the output node of the op amp and the first node of the capacitor to maintain the first voltage across the capacitor; and in the second sensing period, enables the sensing circuit and connects the output node of the op amp and the first node of the capacitor, the maintained first voltage across the capacitor reducing a settling time for the enabled sensing circuit.
