    摘要: A circuit and method for providing a fully integrated DC-DC converter using on-chip switched capacitors is disclosed. A switched capacitor matrix is coupled as a digitally controlled transfer capacitor. A pair of non-overlapping, fixed frequency clock signals is provided to a switched capacitor circuit including the switched capacitor matrix and a load capacitor coupled to the output terminal. A DC input voltage supply is provided. A hysteretic feedback loop is used to control the voltage at the output as a stepped-down voltage from the input by digitally modulating the transfer capacitor using switches in the switch matrix to couple more, or fewer, transfer capacitors to the output terminal during a clock cycle. A coarse and a fine adjustment circuit are provided to improve the regulation during rapid changes in load power. A method of operating the regulator is disclosed.

    摘要: A hysteretic converter includes an inductor coupled between a source of voltage and a switch node. A low side switch is coupled between the switch node and a reference voltage. A high side switch is coupled between the switch node and the output of the converter. A driver controls the low side and high side switches, wherein the low side switch is turned on until the input current rises to a predetermined set point, the predetermined setpoint can be adapted to input current from the source of voltage.
