摘要:
A practical method and system for oversampled digitally controlled DC-DC converters is presented. To minimize the switching losses while maintaining all advantages of the oversampling, “glue logic” and application specific oversampling digital pulse-width modulator are introduced. Experimental results demonstrate transient response with 50% smaller deviation than that of conventional controllers, allowing for proportional reduction in the size of the power stage output capacitor.

A switched mode power can use a digital controller to control the switching of the at least one switch of the switched mode power supply. The current through the power inductor can be estimated using a self-tuning digital current estimator.

Embodiments of the present invention concern a multiphase switch-mode power supply. The multiple phase switch-mode power supply can have at least one switch and a digital controller to control the switching of the at least one switch. During a calibration period, the digital controller can freeze the current of all of the multiple phases except for a phase being calibrated. This can be done by fixing the current reference of the phases except for the phase being calibrated.

In embodiments, a new analog-to-digital converter (ADC) architecture can be used with switch-mode power supplies (SMPS) operating at switching frequencies higher than 10 MHz. Analog-to-digital converter embodiments can achieve very low power consumption, fast conversion time, and can be implemented with a simple hardware. Another noteworthy benefit is that certain ADC embodiments feature a non-linear gain characteristic that provides improved load transient response for digital controllers.

摘要:
A multiphase hybrid digital pulse width modulator can comprise a counter that is selectable between at least two different numbers of states to indicate a first portion of a switching period. Unclocked logic can indicate a second portion of the switching period. The unclocked logic can include a delay line.
