Abstract

See full text

The embodiments of the present invention disclose a synchronous rectification circuit and associated zero-crossing detection method. The synchronous rectification circuit includes a synchronous rectifier having a source, a drain, and at least two gates. The synchronous rectifier having N MOS cells connected in parallel, wherein N is an integer greater than or equal to 2. Through comparing a voltage signal across the drain and the source of the synchronous rectifier with a first and a second threshold voltage, part of the N MOS cells is turned off once the voltage signal is equal to the first threshold voltage, and the left part of the N MOS cells is turned off once the voltage signal is equal to the second threshold voltage. Thus, the accuracy of zero-crossing detection is improved.
