Abstract

See full text

A method for operating a power converter and a control circuit are disclosed. The method includes, in a power converter including an input, a converter stage, a first switch connected between the input and the converter stage, a second switch connected between input nodes of the converter stage, and an output capacitor connected between output nodes of the converter stage: detecting an operating state of the power converter; and operating the power converter in a first operating mode when the power converter is in a first operating state. Operating the power converter in the first operating mode includes regulating an input current received at the input by a switched-mode operation of the first and second electronic switches.
