  • Apparatus for implementing output voltage slope in current mode controlled power supplies
    Patent number: 4827391
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a system for implementing output voltage slope in current mode controlled power supplies wherein the slope is provided by feeding back the voltage analog of peak output current to an error amplifier which provides an error signal which is proportional to the difference between a reference voltage and the output voltage. The error amplifier includes a feedback path including a resistor from output to input to cause output voltage slope with increased current.
