Abstract:
A switched mode power converter has an energy transfer element that delivers an output signal to a load. A power switching device coupled to the primary side of the energy transfer element regulates a transfer of energy to the load. A secondary controller is coupled to receive a feedback signal and output a pulsed signal in response thereto. A primary controller is coupled to receive the pulsed signal and output a drive signal in response thereto, the drive signal being coupled to control switching of the power switching device. A compensation circuit generates an adaptively compensated signal synchronous with the pulsed signal. The adaptively compensated signal has a parameter that is adaptively adjusted in response to a comparison of the feedback signal with a threshold reference signal. The parameter converges towards a final value that produces a desired level of the output signal.

Claim (Index 23):
The controller of  claim 20  wherein the means for generating the linear ramp waveform includes a first comparator that at one input receives the start voltage signal and compares it to the reference voltage to generate a first logic signal at an output of the first comparator, an adaptively compensated signal being generated across a capacitor coupled to the start voltage signal through a first switch controlled by a pulsed signal at beginning of each switching cycle, the capacitor also being coupled to the output of the comparator through a second switch in a current path of a current source, the second switch being controlled by the first logic signal to charge the capacitor towards the target voltage, the capacitor being charged at a beginning of each switching cycle to the adjusted start voltage signal in response to the pulsed signal.
