Abstract:
Voltage converter controllers, voltage converters and methods are discussed regarding the adjustment of an on-time of an auxiliary switch of a voltage converter. First and second voltages are measured before a primary switch of the voltage converter is turned on and while the primary switch is turned on, and the on-time is adjusted based on the voltages.

Claim (Index 21):
A voltage converter, comprising:\n a primary side circuit configured to receive an input voltage, a secondary side circuit configured to output an output voltage, a transformer coupling the primary side circuit and the secondary side circuit, wherein the primary side circuit comprises a primary switch, and wherein the voltage converter further comprises an auxiliary switch configured to adjust a switching voltage across the primary switch when the primary switch is turned on, and a voltage converter controller comprising: a drive circuit configured to control switching of a primary switch on a primary side circuit of a voltage controller and of an auxiliary switch for adjusting a switching voltage of the primary switch, a terminal configured to receive a voltage from an auxiliary winding of a transformer of the voltage controller, a sampling circuit configured to provide a first voltage based on the voltage at the terminal before the primary switch is turned on and a second voltage based on the voltage at the terminal while the primary switch is turned on, and an adjustment circuit configured to adjust a turn on-time of the auxiliary switch based on the first voltage and the second voltage.
