  • CHARGE PUMP TIMING CONTROL
    Publication number: 20180006554
    Abstract: Cycle timing of a charge pump is adapted according to monitoring of operating characteristics of a charge pump and/or peripheral elements coupled to the charge pump. In some examples, this adaptation provides maximum or near maximum cycle times while avoiding violation of predefine constraints (e.g., operating limits) in the charge pump and/or peripheral elements.

  • STEP-UP/STEP-DOWN (BUCK/BOOST) SWITCHING REGULATOR CONTROL METHODS
    Publication number: 20070285065
    Abstract: A step-up/step-down switching regulator control method for a regulator having an inductor with first and second leads, a first switch for controllably coupling the first lead to a source of power, a first device between the first lead and a circuit ground, a second switch for controllably coupling the second lead to the circuit ground, and a second device between the second lead and a regulator, the method comprising operating the switches in a sequence of phases when the source of power has a voltage exceeding the regulator output and in the same sequence of phases when the source of power has a voltage less than the regulator output, the phases being phase 1 with the first and second switches closed, phase 2 with the first switch closed and the second switch open, and phase 3 with both switches open. The first and second devices may be switches or diodes. Various embodiments are disclosed.
