  "textContent": "A system includes a transformer, a first controller, a discharge circuit to discharge an external capacitor based on an undervoltage threshold, and a second controller. The second controller is coupled to the discharge circuit, and is also coupled to receive a rectified Ac voltage and to receive control signals from the first controller. The second controller includes a gate driver to turn on a primary field effect transistor (FET). The second controller also includes a startup controller coupled to the gate driver. The startup controller is configured to increase a duty cycle of the primary FET based on whether a control signal is received from the first controller. The startup controller is also configured to determine a current duty cycle of the primary FET and to turn off the primary FET based on whether the voltage of the AC-DC converter is above an undervoltage threshold.",
