Abstract
Techniques are described to adjust an amount of time a switch is turned off to control power delivered to a load. In some examples, the amount of time the switch is off includes a delay count value and a set count value based on an output power level. In some examples, the amount of time the switch is off includes a zero crossing delay value based on the input voltage level. Both of these example techniques increase the switching efficiency of the system.
