  • Buck-boost DC-DC converter
    Patent number: 10763748
    Abstract: Disclosed examples include inverting buck-boost DC-DC converter circuits with a switching circuit to alternate between first and second buck mode phases for buck operation in a first mode, including connecting an inductor and a capacitor in series between an input node and a reference node to charge the inductor and the capacitor in the first buck mode phase, and connecting the inductor and the capacitor in parallel between an output node and the reference node to discharge the inductor and the capacitor to the output node.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 1, 2018
    Date of Patent: September 1, 2020
    Assignee: Texas Instruments Incorporated
    Inventors: Ivan Shumkov, Erich Bayer, Joerg Kirchner, Ruediger Ganz, Michael Lueders, Martin Priess, Nicola Rasera
