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 23):
The controller of  claim 21 , wherein the gate control circuit includes an oscillation circuit generating one or more pulses to turn on the transistor in response to the signal indicating the near valley window time period, a signal indicating the blanking period, and a signal indicating a waiting period.
