Abstract
Methods, devices, and integrated circuits are disclosed for controlling switch timing in a power factor correction timing switch. In one example, a device is configured to receive one or more indications of one or more power factor correction circuit parameters. The device is further configured to determine a switch delay time based at least in part on the one or more power factor correction circuit parameters. The device is further configured to generate an indication of a switch on time for the power factor correction timing switch, wherein the switch on time is based at least in part on the switch delay time.
