Zusammenfassung:An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for providing high efficiency in a power supply over a range of load conditions. The apparatus includes a condition module that determines whether the power supply is in a high load state or a low load state. A high load module ensures that the load receives power through the power supply's high load power train if the load state is the high load state. A low load module ensures that the load receives power through the power supply's low load power train if the load state is the low load state. The high load power train is optimized for efficiency under high power conditions, while the low load power train is optimized for efficiency under low power conditions. The power supply thus operates with the most efficient power train for the particular load conditions, improving the net efficiency of the power supply.
