  • Method and apparatae for controlling and providing a voltage converter with a pulse-modulated switch
    Patent number: 10581352
    Abstract: An improved apparatus for controlling and providing a pulse-width-modulated signal to a switch operatively arranged between two terminals of a power supply for controlling an output power. A controller provides a pulse-width-modulated gate signal at a frequency to the switch. The controller is arranged to adjust the frequency as a function of a sensed parameter such that the power dissipated in the switch during switch transitions may be adjusted.
