Abstract: A voltage converter includes a driving device unit, a current sensing unit and a switching control circuit. The driving device unit charges an input power supply voltage in an inductor, connected between a switching node and an output node, in response to a first driving control signal, and discharges the inductor in response to a second driving control signal. The current sensing unit generates first and second sensing signals based on a first sensed current, a second sensed current, a voltage at the switching node and a ground voltage.

The switching control circuit adaptively adjusts off-time when the switching control circuit performs the PFM.
