Synchronous buck converters have received great attention in low power, low voltage DC-DC converter applications in recent years due to their high efficiency. International Rectifier Inc. has ...

These three analysis methods are linked together, so this section is organized by control method. In contrast to the large-signal transient response that was reviewed in part 2, we will perform ac ...

Why we should use a multiphase buck converter. How to use buck converters in parallel to increase the output current/power. How to derive the small-signal transfer function of a multiphase buck ...

Editor’s note: The following is Part one of a technical white paper by Ericsson with some very educational and practical design information. The paper discusses the Loop Compensator and Capacitor ...

Loop stability analysis usually starts from an open-loop Bode plot of the plant under study such as the power stage of a buck or a flyback converter. In this situation, the designer can extract phase ...
