Abstract: A buck converter is described having a buck converter output for outputting an output supply voltage; a first power supply domain operably coupled to a power source; a second power supply domain; a power supply controller coupled to the first power supply domain, the second power supply domain and the buck converter output; wherein the power supply controller is configured to supply power to the second power supply domain from the first power supply domain or the buck converter output, in dependence of the buck converter output supply voltage. Changing the current supplied to the second power supply domain to the buck converter output may reduce the quiescent current consumption from a battery power source, prolonging battery life.

Abstract: A DC-DC converter operates in a burst mode having at least one charge cycle with a charging phase followed by a discharging phase. A charging phase is terminated when an inductor current flowing through an inductance connected to the DC-DC converter reaches a compensated peak-current threshold, wherein the compensated peak-current threshold compensates for charging-phase loop delay. A discharging phase is terminated when the inductor current reaches a compensated valley-current threshold, wherein the compensated valley-current threshold compensates for discharging-phase loop delay.

Abstract: A DC-DC converter selectively operates in at least a first burst mode having at least one first-mode charge cycle with a first-mode charging phase followed by a first-mode discharging phase or a second burst mode having at least one second-mode charge cycle with a second-mode charging phase followed by a second-mode discharging phase. A first-mode charging phase is terminated when an inductor current flowing through the inductance reaches a first-mode peak-current threshold, and a first-mode discharging phase is terminated when the inductor current reaches a first-mode valley-current threshold. A second-mode charging phase is terminated when the inductor current reaches a second-mode peak-current threshold, wherein the second-mode peak-current threshold is different from the first-mode peak-current threshold, and the second-mode discharging phase is terminated when the inductor current reaches a second-mode valley-current threshold, wherein the second-mode valley-current threshold is different from the first-mode valley-current threshold.

Abstract: Embodiments provide forced-burst voltage regulation for burst mode direct-current-to-direct-current (DC-DC) converters in integrated circuits. The DC-DC converter generates an output voltage and operates in a burst mode to raise the output voltage to a threshold voltage. A controller is coupled to the DC-DC converter. In operation, the DC-DC converter is configured to perform the burst mode based upon a low-voltage detection for the output voltage. The DC-DC converter is further configured to perform the burst mode when a force-burst command is asserted by the controller to the DC-DC converter regardless of a state for the low-voltage detection. For one embodiment, the force-burst command is asserted as a burst control signal from the controller to the DC-DC converter to generate a long quiet period for sensitive actions. For another embodiment, the force-burst command is asserted using enable and refresh control signals to facilitate low-power operation.
