Abstract
This paper presents the characteristics and the performance of a 75 W-19 V ac-dc adapter for notebook PC tailored on the latest Energy Star Program requirements. The power supply is composed of a front-end PFC pre-regulator and a Flyback downstream converter. An innovative PFC control circuit sensing both the input and the output voltages through an auxiliary winding is the key element in achieving the desired performance. A prototype board has been implemented and test results are reported.
