Abstract

In a power supply that includes switch-mode feedback, output transient responses can be minimized by first detecting a predetermined load change. Once the load change has been detected, the switch-mode feedback is adjusted for a predetermined period of time to a maximum level for load increases or to a minimum level for load decreases. When the predetermined period of time elapses, the switch-mode feedback is adjusted to an output voltage dependent mode of operation.
