Abstract:
A device includes a first ramp generator having a first ramp generator output configured to provide a first ramp, a second ramp generator having a second ramp generator output configured to provide a second ramp, and a third ramp generator having a third ramp generator output configured to provide a third ramp. The first ramp is a sawtooth voltage waveform having a first common mode voltage and a first peak-to-peak voltage. The second ramp is a sawtooth voltage waveform having a second common mode voltage and a second peak-to-peak voltage. The third ramp is a sawtooth voltage waveform having a third common mode voltage and a third peak-to-peak voltage. A frequency of the second ramp is approximately equal to a frequency of the third ramp, and the frequency of the third ramp is approximately double a frequency of the first ramp.
