Abstract
The present invention relates to a switch controller, a power supply including the same, and a method for driving the same. An AC input of the power supply is connected to a rectification circuit. The power supply includes a power switch to which an input current passed through the rectification circuit flows during an on-period and a switch controller, the switch controller detects a half-on time point that is the intermediate time point of the on-period, detects a sense voltage that is determined by a current flowing to the power switch during the on-period at the half-on time point, generates a modulation wave by controlling a reference wave according to the detected voltage, and controls switching operation of the power switch according to the modulation wave.
