    Abstract: A multi-mode converter using iterative average current mode pulse width modulation (PWM) control is provided. The converter may include a current sense amplifier configured to output a current sense signal over a present switching cycle based on an inductor current through an inductor, a voltage error amplifier configured to output an error voltage based on a difference between a reference voltage and an output voltage, and a PWM controller. The PWM controller may include an error voltage modifier circuit configured to selectively output the error voltage or a modified error voltage based on a mode signal, and an iterative average current control circuit configured to generate a PWM signal based on the output from the error voltage modifier circuit, the current sense signal over the present switching cycle and a current sense signal over a previous switching cycle that precedes the present switching cycle.

    Abstract: A communication method and apparatus that uses modulation of post-conduction oscillation frequency in switching converters is provided. The apparatus may include a converter having a magnetic element having a primary winding and a secondary winding, a first switch, a control circuit configured to repeatedly activate the first switch to couple an input voltage source to the primary winding to store electrical energy in the magnetic element, and a diode coupled to the secondary winding, said diode configured to couple the secondary winding to a load to deliver the electrical energy stored in the magnetic element, and a communication apparatus having a second switch, a first modulator capacitor coupled to the secondary winding, a first transmitter configured to activate the second switch in accordance with a first input signal, and a first receiver configured to detect a post-conduction oscillation frequency of a voltage signal at the primary or secondary windings.

    Abstract: A high power-factor buck-boost converter having a rectified low-frequency AC line voltage input and a DC output is provided. The converter may include a magnetic element, a controlled switch having a gate terminal and a drain terminal that is coupled to the magnetic element, a rectifier diode coupled to the magnetic element, an output smoothing capacitor coupled to the rectifier diode, and a control circuit having an output coupled to the gate terminal of the controlled switch for repeatedly turning the controlled switch off for a first time duration and on for a second time duration. The second time duration may be determined as a function of the first time duration immediately preceding the second time duration.
