A power converter control method and apparatus is disclosed. An example power converter controller according to aspects of the present invention includes a feedback sampling circuit coupled to receive a feedback signal representative of an output of a power converter to generate feedback signal samples during enabled switching cycles. The power converter controller also includes a switch conduction control circuit coupled to the feedback sampling circuit. The switch conduction control circuit includes switch conduction enable circuitry coupled to enable or disable the conduction of a power switch during a switching cycle in response to the feedback signal samples. The switch conduction control circuit also includes switch conduction scheduling circuitry coupled to determine a varying number of future enabled and disabled switching cycles in response to the feedback signal samples from a present switching cycle and one or more past switching cycles.
