Abstract

See full text

An isolated fly-buck converter is provided for converting an input voltage to an output voltage, and for generating a voltage indicative of the input voltage. The isolated fly-buck converter comprises on its secondary side an input voltage sensing circuit for generating the voltage indicative of the input voltage, the input voltage sensing circuit comprising a capacitive element and a rectifying element connected in series. The input voltage sensing circuit is connected across a secondary winding of the isolated fly-buck converter such that the rectifying element prevents current from flowing through the input voltage sensing circuit during the fly-buck phase of operation of the converter. The input voltage sensing circuit also has a voltage buffer arranged to buffer a voltage which is indicative of a sum of the output voltage of the converter and the voltage over the capacitive element, and output the buffered voltage or a voltage based on the buffered voltage as the voltage that is indicative of the input voltage. The output of the voltage buffer is connected to ground via a first resistive element in series with a parallel combination of a second resistive element and a third capacitive element.
