Problems solved by technology

The output voltage ripple of forced continuous mode is small and its frequency is constant in the whole load variation range, which is easy to filter out noise, but its light load efficiency is also the lowest
[0004] Generally speaking, the three working modes have their own advantages and disadvantages. In terms of efficiency, among the three light-load working modes, the burst mode has the highest light-load efficiency, followed by the pulse-skipping mode, and
