Abstract:
A controller configured for use with a power converter and a power switch comprising a primary controller coupled to the power converter and configured to provide a switch drive signal to control switching of the power switch to transfer energy from a primary side to a secondary side of the power converter. A primary switching pattern circuit is configured to provide a primary switching pattern to operate the primary controller in a first mode of operation and a primary switch control circuit is coupled to the primary switching pattern circuit and configured to receive a control signal representative of turn-on of the power switch, to receive the primary switching pattern, and to output the switch drive signal. The primary switch control circuit operates in a first mode, a second mode, and a transition, wherein the primary switch control circuit operates in the second mode after the transition has been completed.

Claim (Index 10):
The controller of  claim 9 , wherein the secondary controller comprises:\n a secondary switch control circuit configured to output the control signal to the primary controller in response to a feedback signal representative of an output of the power converter; a charging circuit coupled to the secondary switch control circuit, the charging circuit configured to charge and regulate an energy storage element towards a bypass voltage to operate the secondary controller; and a voltage detection circuit coupled to the charging circuit and configured to provide an indication to the secondary switch control circuit to initiate the transition with the primary controller, wherein the primary controller operates in the second mode when the transition is complete.
