Abstract: An isolated switched-mode power converter converts power from an input source into power for an output load. A digital controller senses a secondary-side voltage, such as a rectified voltage, of the power converter. The secondary-side voltage is divided down using a high-impedance voltage divider. The resultant divided-down voltage is provided to a voltage sensor within the digital controller. The voltage sensor level shifts the provided voltage, and buffers the resulting level-shifted voltage. The buffered, level-shifted voltage is provided to a tracking analog-to-digital converter (ADC) for digitization. The buffered signal provided to the tracking ADC has a high current capability, such that the voltage input to the tracking ADC may quickly converge before the tracking ADC outputs a digital value for the sensed secondary-side voltage.
