A control method is disclosed to generate a control signal in a power supply with a synchronous rectifier. The control signal turns ON the synchronous rectifier to provide a channel approximately short-circuited if the control signal is greater than a threshold voltage, and turns OFF the synchronous rectifier to turn the channel into an open circuit if the control signal is between the threshold voltage and a ground reference voltage. A detection signal is generated based on one end of the channel, and compared with a predetermined level higher than the ground reference voltage. An excitation time is a period when the detection signal exceeds the predetermined level. When the excitation time exceeds a preset time, the control signal is precharged to a sub-threshold voltage between the threshold voltage and the ground reference voltage.
A control method for synchronous rectification in use of a power supply having primary and secondary sides isolated from each other, wherein the power supply includes on the secondary side a synchronous rectifier with a control terminal, at which a control signal turns ON the synchronous rectifier to provide a channel approximately short-circuited if the control signal is greater than a threshold voltage, and turns OFF the synchronous rectifier to turn the channel into an open circuit if the control signal is between the threshold voltage and a ground reference voltage, the control method comprising:
