The method includes generating an oscillating signal in the form of a series of pulse trains, and randomly changing the switching frequency, or the on-time, or both the switching frequency and the on-time of the switching device.

In a particular embodiment, the method further generates spurious-noise-free power from a switching device by implementing a relationship between the different switching frequencies involved such that spurious-noise-free operation is achieved.
