    Abstract: Techniques for reducing ringing arising from L-C coupling in a boost converter circuit during a transition from a boost ON state to a boost OFF state. In an aspect, during an OFF state of the boost converter circuit, the size of the high-side switch coupling a boost inductor to the load is gradually increased over time. In this manner, the on-resistance of the high-side switch is decreased from a first value to a second (lower) value over time, which advantageously reduces ringing (due to high quality factor or Q) when initially entering the OFF state, while maintaining low conduction losses during the remainder of the OFF state. Further techniques are provided for implementing the high-side switch as a plurality of parallel-coupled transistors.
