Abstract

A flyback converter is disclosed having a secondary side controller that generates an input current for an optocoupler diode by driving a variable resistor with a control voltage. The secondary side controller varies a variable resistance for the variable resistor to compensate for current transfer ratio gain variations for the optocoupler.
