Abstract: In an example, a device for operating a switching converter is configured to receive a composite command duty cycle value. The device is further configured to generate an effective duty cycle value based on a voltage at a switching node. The device is further configured to generate a duty cycle mismatch value using the composite command duty cycle value and the effective duty cycle value so as to generate a plurality of duty cycle mismatch values. Each duty cycle mismatch value of the plurality of duty cycle mismatch values corresponds to a candidate natural frequency value of the converter. The device is further configured to output a candidate natural frequency value of the converter that corresponds to a maximum duty cycle mismatch of the plurality of duty cycle mismatch values.

Abstract: In some examples, a device can be used for measuring the impedance of a first battery cell. The device includes a first analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and a second ADC. The device also includes a multiplexer configured to connect the first ADC to the first battery cell in a first instance and to connect the second ADC to a current sensor in the first instance. The current sensor is configured to sense current through the first battery cell. The multiplexer is also configured to connect the first ADC to the current sensor in a second instance and to connect the second ADC to the first battery cell in the second instance or in a third instance.

Abstract: A control system, and corresponding method, for a Multi-Level Hybrid Flying Capacitor (MLHFC) converter. The control system includes a controller configured to control an output of the MLHFC converter; a feedback region detector configured to detect a change in a feedback region of the MLHFC converter; and a controller adjuster configured to, in response to the detected change, adjust the control system to counteract instability.

Abstract: In an example, a device for operating a switching converter is configured to determine a set of perturbed duty cycle values for a converter. A perturbation sequence is superimposed simultaneously onto a duty cycle value for each phase of the converter to form the set of perturbed duty cycle values. The device is further configured to determine an output voltage of the converter that occurs when the converter operates based on the set of perturbed duty cycle values, determine a coefficient vector of system parameters for the converter based on the output voltage and the set of perturbed duty cycle values, and tune a controller based on the coefficient vector. The duty cycle value for each phase of the converter is based on a respective command duty cycle value of a set of command duty cycle values output by the controller.
