via the optocoupler in the feedback pin, the off time expands
and the power delivery reduces. The maximum threshold
level in standby conditions is set to 6 V.

power supply can deliver at low line. This discrepancy
relates to the propagation delay from the point where the
peak is detected to the MOSFET gate effective pulldown. It
naturally includes the controller reaction time, but also the
driver capability to pull the gate down. If the MOSFET Q
is too large, then this parameter will greatly affect your
overpower parameter. Sometimes, the small PNP can help
and we recommend it if you use a large Q
