Abstract

A control device, which is applied to a flyback converter including an auxiliary switch, includes: an on-time setter, configured to set an on-time threshold according to a reference value and an output voltage of the flyback converter; and an on-time controller, configured to output a control signal to turn on the auxiliary switch, and turn off the auxiliary switch when on-time of the auxiliary switch reaches the on-time threshold. According to the present disclosure, it is able to achieve zero voltage switching of a primary-side switch of the flyback converter with variable outputs.
