    摘要: An integrated circuit. The integrated circuit comprises a timebase generator and a switch mode direct current-to-direct current (DC-to-DC) voltage converter coupled to the timebase generator. The timebase generator comprises a first linear feedback shift register (LFSR), a signal generator having an input coupled to an output of the first LFSR; and a digital divider comprising a second LFSR and a programmable digital divider, wherein a clock input of the programmable digital divider is coupled to an output of the signal generator, wherein an output of the programmable digital divider is coupled to a clock input of the first LFSR and is coupled to a clock input of the second LFSR, and wherein an output of the second LFSR is coupled to a program input of the programmable digital divider.
