    Abstract: A switched voltage converter may be controlled with load current feedforward control loop in addition to an output voltage feedback loop. The converter includes a first switch device that is controlled to open and close at a selected switching rate with a selected duty cycle. The first switch device is coupled in series with an inductor and conducts current through the inductor while the first switch is closed. A second switch device conducts current from the inductor to an output capacitor and to load while the first switch is open to produce an output voltage and a resulting load current through the load. The load current is measured in a continuous manner and a load current feedforward control signal is generated that is representative of the load current. The switch rate and/or duty cycle of the first switch is adjusted in response to the load current feedforward control signal.

    Abstract: Disclosed examples include multiple output DC to DC converters with a buck converter including a half bridge switching circuit and transformer primary winding to provide a first output voltage signal, as well as a boost converter to provide an isolated second output voltage signal. The boost converter includes a transformer secondary winding magnetically coupled with the primary winding to provide a boost converter inductor, a switching circuit, an output diode providing the second output voltage signal, and a PWM controller that synchronizes the boost converter switching with the low side switch of the buck converter based on a sensed voltage of the transformer secondary winding.

    Abstract: In described examples, an isolated DC-DC converter includes: an input node for receiving an input voltage; a transformer including first and second terminals; first and second low-side switches; and first and second high-side switches. The first low-side switch is coupled between the first terminal and a primary side ground. The second low-side switch is coupled between the second terminal and the primary side ground. The first high-side switch is coupled between the first terminal and the input node and is configured to be activated by a voltage at the second terminal. The second high-side switch is coupled between the second terminal and the input node and is configured to be activated by a voltage at the first terminal. Further, the isolated DC-DC converter includes a switch controller to cause the first and second voltages to alternatingly be zero by opening and closing the first and second low-side switches.

An impedance control circuit controls the impedance circuit to limit the current signal in response to the buffer capacitor reaching a first threshold voltage, and an output circuit provides an output isolated from the digital input voltage signal to switch the load. A signaling circuit selectively enables the output circuit to draw power from the buffer capacitor in response to the voltage of the buffer capacitor reaching the first threshold voltage.
