Abstract
An power converter that is operable to convert AC power into DC power that may be delivered to a load. The power converter includes a transformer and a controllable switch. The switching frequency of the power converter is configured to be dependent on the level of the AC voltage of an AC power source. The switching frequency may be proportional to the AC voltage to provide a constant magnetic flux density swing for the transformer in the power converter. The switching frequency may be controlled by using a circuit that converts the AC voltage from the AC power source into a frequency signal that is proportional to the AC voltage.
