Abstract: The present invention provides a primary-side regulated PWM controller with improved load regulation. In every PWM cycle, a built-in feedback voltage samples and holds a flyback voltage from the auxiliary winding of the transformer via a sampling switch and generates a feedback voltage accordingly. A bias current sink pulls a bias current that is proportional to the feedback voltage. Via a detection resistor, the bias current will produce a voltage drop to compensate the voltage drop of an output rectifying diode as the output load changes. According to the present invention, the bias current can enable the PWM controller to regulate the output voltage very precisely without using a secondary feedback circuit.

Abstract: A primary-side flyback power converter supplies a constant voltage and a constant current output. To generate a well-regulated output voltage under varying load conditions, the power converter includes a PWM controller. The PWM controller generates a PWM signal to control a switching transistor in response to a flyback voltage detected from the first primary winding of the power supply transformer. To reduce power consumption, the flyback energy of the first primary winding is used as a DC power source for the PWM controller. The flyback voltage is sampled following a delay time to reduce interference from the inductance leakage of the transformer. To generate a more accurate DC output voltage, a bias current is pulled from the detection input to form a voltage drop across a detection resistor for compensating for the voltage drop of the output rectifying diode.

Abstract: An automatic balance adjusting device for an AC power supply is provided between the AC current output terminals of an AC power supply and its feedback control circuit. The device uses a two-level filter to extract the DC component of an AC output signal. The DC error is accumulated and amplified by an integrator and converted from a voltage form to a current form. Through a photo coupler designed for the separation purpose, the error signal is sent back to the feedback control circuit to perform compensation. Thus, the device can achieve the purpose of automatically balancing the positive and negative half-cycle waveform of the output signal.
