Abstract

A control method for a power supply apparatus is provided. Firstly, at least one of an output voltage or an output current of the resonant converter is sampled. Then, an error signal is generated according to a reference value and at least one of the output voltage or the output current. While the resonant converter is in a burst mode, a first switching signal and a chopping signal are generated according to the error signal. The chopping signal has a chopping period and a duty cycle. The chopping period and the duty cycle are dynamically adjusted according to the error signal. Then, a second switching signal is generated according to the chopping signal and the first switching signal. A switch unit of the resonant converter is turned on or turned off according to the second switching signal.
