    摘要: A DC-DC converter including a switching buck regulator including a first power switch connected to a first power node, a second power switch connected to a second power node, a driver configured to drive the first and second power switches, an output filtering inductor connected to a node between the first and second power switches, and an output filtering capacitor connected to the output filtering inductor, a controller configured to compensate for an output signal of the switching buck regulator in a time domain using a reference voltage, and a feed forward circuit connected between the switching buck regulator and the controller, and including a first buffer, a second buffer, an RC filter, and an adder may be provided. Accordingly, the DC-DC converter can reduce a delay of a compensation circuit, improve transient response characteristics of the switching buck regulator, and further improve the performance of the DC-DC converter.

    摘要: A direct-current (DC)-DC converter includes a converting circuit including an inductor element. The converting circuit is configured to generate an output voltage from an input voltage based on a switching operation. An inductor current emulator is configured to adjust at least one parameter for changing a current peak value of the inductor element in response to a change in a level of the input voltage and is configured to generate an internal voltage based on the at least one parameter, which is adjusted. The inductor current emulator is configured to generate a control signal for controlling the switching operation such that current of the inductor element has a pattern corresponding to a pattern of the internal voltage.
