Abstract
A control circuit for synchronous switching power supplies employing semi-soft switching during turn off and precedent switching during turn on. During turn off, an output voltage is compared to a reference voltage to turn on a synchronous switch after a primary switch is turned off. During turn on, a timing voltage ramp triggers the turn off of the synchronous switch prior to the turn on of the primary switch.
