Abstract

An integrated circuit may detect a pin voltage at a selector pin. The integrated circuit may compare the pin voltage to a threshold voltage. The integrated circuit may selectively perform primary side voltage regulation or secondary side voltage regulation, to regulate a voltage supplied to an electrical load coupled to the integrated circuit, based on comparing the pin voltage and the threshold voltage.
