Abstract
Flyback converters are disclosed herein. An embodiment of a flyback converter includes a transformer having a primary side and a secondary side. A switch is connected to the primary side of the transformer, wherein the switch controls the current in the primary side of the transformer. A resistance is connected between the switch and a common node. The converter also includes a comparator having a first input and a second, the first input being connected between the switch and the resistor. Driver logic controls the state of the switch, wherein the output of the comparator is coupled to the driver logic. A voltage source is connected to the second input of the comparator. An error amplifier compares the voltage at the second input of the comparator to an adjustment voltage, the output of the error amplifier is coupled to the driver logic.
