Voltage Regulator Module with Interleaved Synchronous Buck Converters and Novel Voltage-Mode Hysteretic Control
نویسندگان
چکیده
Today’s on-board low-voltage, high-current dc-dc voltage regulator module (VRM) requirements for the new generation of IC’s and microprocessors are increasingly becoming stricter than ever as the demand for high dynamic performance and high power density converters continues to increase. A new scheme that combines interleaved technique and voltage-mode hysteretic control approach, by upgrading an existing singlephase chip, will be proposed. It is expected that the new combined approach, with some design tradeoffs, will meet many of today’s VRM requirements.

A High Efficiency Low-Voltage Soft Switching DC–DC Converter for Portable Applications
This paper presents a novel control method to improve the efficiency of low-voltage DC-DC converters at light loads. Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) converters have poor efficiencies at light loads, while pulse frequency modulation (PFM) control is more efficient for the same cases. Switching losses constitute a major portion of the total power loss at light loads. To decrease the switching losses...
