Abstract
A synchronous rectifier controller integrated circuit. The synchronous rectifier controller integrated circuit comprises a continuous current mode (CCM) detection circuit configured to detect CCM operation based on sensing a voltage at a pre-defined point in a rectification cycle; a multiplexer having a first reference voltage signal input, a second reference voltage signal input, an output, and a selector input coupled to the CCM detection circuit; and a gate voltage driver circuit coupled to the output of the multiplexer.
