    Abstract: A direct current (DC) voltage converter configured to transition between operation modes is disclosed. A voltage selection circuitry is provided in a DC voltage conversion circuit to control a buck-boost converter that generates a DC output voltage. As opposed to conventional methods of switching the buck-boost converter between a buck mode and a boost mode based on a single switching threshold, the voltage selection circuitry is configured to switch the buck-boost converter between the buck mode and the boost mode based on multiple voltage thresholds. Each of the multiple voltage thresholds defines a respective range for the DC output voltage. By controlling the buck-boost converter based on multiple voltage thresholds, it is possible to provide a smoother transition between the buck mode and the boost mode, thus reducing voltage errors in the DC output voltage and improving reliability of the DC voltage conversion circuit.

The second switching transistor element and the fourth switching transistor element are coupled in series between a second power source and the first downstream circuit. A voltage swing at the first gate and a voltage swing at the second gate are both about equal to a first voltage magnitude. A voltage swing at the third gate and a voltage swing at the fourth gate are both about equal to a second voltage magnitude.

    Abstract: A direct current (DC)-DC converter, which includes an open loop ripple cancellation circuit, a switching supply, and a parallel amplifier, is disclosed. During a calibration mode, the parallel amplifier provides a parallel amplifier output current to regulate a power supply output voltage based on a calibration setpoint. The switching supply drives the parallel amplifier output current toward zero using a switching control signal, such that during the calibration mode, an estimate of a current gain is based on the switching control signal. Further, during the calibration mode, the open loop ripple cancellation circuit is disabled. During a normal operation mode, the open loop ripple cancellation circuit provides a ripple cancellation current, which is based on the estimate of the current gain.
