ABSTRACT:
Several synchronization circuits, a computer, a method of adjusting the operation of an oscillator, and method of operating a power converter are disclosed. The circuits and computer include a switch coupled to a current path. The switch receives a synchronizing signal, and is turned on by an active state of the synchronizing signal, and turned off by an inactive state of the synchronizing signal. The current path is configured to pass a current when the switch is off, and the switch is configured to pass the current when turned on. This abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract that allow any reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure. It is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.
