Abstract
The present invention relates to a frequency jittering device and method, and a switching power supply employing such frequency jittering device. Said method comprises: S1 generating a variable logic number; S2 generating a delay signal; S3 generating a PWM control signal according to the variable logic number and the delay signal; S4 generating an output signal according to the PWM control signal; and S5 generating a clock signal with variable frequency according to the output signal; wherein, the clock signal is fed back to update the variable logic number, and a jittering clock signal modified in each clock cycle is produced. The benefit of the present invention is not only can apply small low cost EMI filter but also can keep the noise floor level low enough at light load condition.
