An alternation voltage- or current generator comprises a first switch driving output network whose frequency can be tuned. The tunable network comprises a first Inductor that is coupled with a first capacitor. A second inductor and/or at least a second capacitor and/or at least a series circuit of a third inductor and a third capacitor which is coupled via at a second switch to the network. The second switch is controlled by a controlled delay (PWM) which is synchronized by a sign change of current and/or voltage in the network.

A current limit peak regulation circuit, a current limit circuit and a power converter including the current limit peak regulation circuit. The current limit peak regulation circuit provides a current limit threshold to limit a maximum allowable peak current value of a current flowing through a main switch of the power converter and adjusts the current limit threshold to decrease with decrease in a switching frequency of the power converter when the power converter is in a constant voltage mode so as to reduce power dissipation of the power converter in standby mode.

Disclosed are advances in the arts with novel and useful current mode regulators. Circuits, systems, and methods for current mode regulation include a primary side for receiving an input signal and a secondary for outputting an output signal. A regulator spans the primary and secondary sides in a configuration by which the input signal may be rectified and thereafter provided to the output node as an output signal. A current monitor is provided at the output node for comparing the output signal to a reference. A communication link is included for providing feedback to the primary side of the regulator for use in regulating the signal.
