Patent ID: 11606042

Abstract:
A secondary side controller of a flyback AC-DC converter includes an integrated circuit, which includes: an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) coupled to a voltage bus (VBUS), the ADC to output a digital value corresponding to a voltage level of the VBUS; first logic configured to generate a reference voltage based on the digital value; second logic configured to generate a VBUS gain value based on output power of a flyback transformer of the flyback AC-DC converter; an integrator to accumulate current corresponding to a sensed voltage at a drain of a synchronous rectifier (SR) of a secondary side of the flyback transformer, the accumulated current to be modified according to the VBUS gain value, wherein the integrator outputs an updated sensed voltage; and a comparator to output a detection signal, indicative of a negative sense voltage, in response to the updated sensed voltage matching the reference voltage.
