Isolated AC-DC Converter with Master Controller on Secondary Side and Slave Controller on Primary Side
First Claim
1. An isolated alternating current (AC)-direct current (DC) converter, comprising:
- a slave control circuit that includes;
a slave driver module configured to receive a command and to control coupling of the slave control circuit to a primary-side inductor of a transformer based on the command;
a master control circuit coupled to a secondary-side inductor of the transformer, the master control circuit including a master control module configured to sense a feedback voltage across a load and to generate the command based on the feedback voltage and a reference voltage; and
a coupler configured to communicate the command from the master control module to the slave driver module and to provide isolation between the master control module and the slave driver module.
