Abstract
The present invention provides a controller for a power converter. The controller comprises a PWM circuit, a detection circuit, a signal generator, an oscillation circuit, a valley-lock circuit, a timing circuit and a burst circuit. The PWM circuit generates a switching signal coupled to switch a transformer of the power converter. A feedback signal is coupled to control and disable the switching signal. The detection circuit is coupled to the transformer via a resistor for generating a valley signal in response to a waveform obtained from the transformer. The signal generator is coupled to receive the feedback signal and the valley signal for generating an enabling signal. The oscillation circuit generates a maximum frequency signal. The maximum frequency signal associates with the enabling signal to generate a turning-on signal. The turning-on signal is coupled to enable the switching signal. A maximum frequency of the turning-on signal is limited.
