MULTIPHASE CURRENT-PARKING SWITCHING REGULATOR

摘要

A system and method are provided for regulating a voltage at a load. A target current is obtained and a number of regulator phases needed to provide the target current to a load is computed based on an efficiency characteristic of the regulator phases. The regulator phases are configured to provide the target current to the load. A multi-phase electric power conversion device comprises at least two regulator phases and a multi-phase control unit. The multi-phase control unit is configured to obtain the target current, compute the number of the regulator phases needed to provide the target current to the load based on the efficiency characteristic of the regulator phases, and configure the regulator phases to provide the target current to the load.
