Abstract

A method for soft recovery for switched mode power supplies includes: (a) detecting a drop of the output voltage value FB; (b) starting the output voltage values FB recovery using a current FB value stored as a Vref start value from which the recovery is to be made; (c) detecting the start of the recovery of the output voltage; (d) generating a timing pulse; (e) measuring a FB value on the rising edge of the timing pulse and comparing the FB value with the Vref value, and if the FB value is greater than the Vref value, storing the FB value and setting the FB value as the new Vref start value from which the recovery is to be made going forward; and (f) repeating step (d) and (e), after a preset time delay, until the FB value is less than or equal to the Vref for the FB value.
