Isolated voltage converter with feedback on the primary winding, and corresponding method for controlling the output voltage

摘要

An embodiment of a voltage converter includes: voltage-transformer means having a primary side, designed to receive an input voltage, and a secondary side, designed to supply an output voltage; control-switch means coupled to said primary side; and a control circuit, coupled to a control terminal of said control-switch means and designed to control switching thereof as a function of a first signal correlated to said output voltage; said control circuit being provided with an error-amplifier stage, designed to process a difference between said first signal and a reference signal, wherein said error-amplifier stage is configured so as to have a transconductance characteristic with a linear-operation region, having a given slope, and at least one first clamped region, which has a slope lower than said given slope and is contiguous to said linear-operation region.
