Abstract:
A switched-mode power supply with near valley switching includes a quasi-resonant converter. The converter includes a switch element that is turned on not only at the valley, but also in a window range of Δt NVW  close to the valley, where the voltage across the switch element is at its minimum. This advantageously reduces switching loss and maintains a balance between efficiency and frequency variation.

Claim (Index 31):
The method of  claim 30 , further comprising turning on the switch during a next near valley window time period or at an end of a waiting period, when the blanking period ends outside the near valley window time period.
