Abstract: A switch controller for switching power supply is coupled to an auxiliary winding of the switching power supply through a detecting resistor.

In addition, the switch controller can detect the magnitude of an input voltage of the switching power supply by means of the detecting current, and accordingly control the operation of the switching power supply.
