A control circuit for an isolated power converter includes a first sensing circuit that senses a secondary side output voltage and produces a pulse wave modulation (PWM) signal having a duty cycle that is proportional to a value of the secondary side output voltage. The PWM is transferred across the converter isolation barrier to the primary side, and a primary side circuit receives the PWM signal and outputs a control signal. A controller determines the value of the secondary side output voltage from the control signal and uses the value to control primary side power switching devices of the isolated power converter to regulate the secondary side output voltage at a selected value.

An adjustable power supply suitable for a power switch driver circuit takes an input voltage and generates output voltages at three output terminals. Two of the output terminals provide gate voltage signals to a power switch control device while the third is connected to a reference voltage. The output voltages may be adjusted using a first and second external resistor enabling power requirements for a wide variety of power switch devices to be satisfied.

An isolated switched-mode power converter converts power from an input source into power for an output load. Power switches within a primary-side power stage control the amount of power input to the power converter and, ultimately, provided to the output load. A digital controller on the secondary side of the power converter generates signals to control the power switches. This controller also senses a rectified voltage on the secondary side of the power converter and uses this sensed voltage to detect fault conditions of the primary side. For example, the sensed rectified voltage is used to detect undervoltage or overvoltage conditions of the input power source of the power converter, or faulty power switches within the primary-side power stage.

A system for preventing magnetic saturation and for controlling and managing DC offset in a transformer cores. A magnetic flux sensor is disposed within a bore within the core transformer core. The sensor transmits a sensor output that is continuously received by a processor that is programed to continuously compare in real time the sensor output with a stored selectable maximum flux sensor output value. Responsive to the comparison of real-time sensor output value to the stored maximum value, the microprocessor either allows, during each driving voltage half-cycle, the driving voltage to continue unabated while the sensor output remains below the selectable maximum value, or triggers a gate to modify the driving voltage for the remainder of the half-cycle when the selectable maximum value is reached. The processor is also programed to process, in parallel or separately, the flux sensor output for each phase half-cycle to continuously compute a flux-second integral for each half-cycle, and to continuously compare them to each other for an instantaneous DC offset value and to add a DC voltage to the phase half-cycle that is deficient and or to subtract a DC voltage from the phase half-cycle that is contributing to the DC offset to effect minimal DC offset.
