ADAPTIVE GATE DRIVE SYSTEMS AND METHODS

摘要

Aspects of the invention pertain to optimization of multi-phase voltage converter efficiency regardless of load conditions. A processor (106) is coupled to different stages (102, 104) of a power control system (100). Input and output voltages to the different stages are monitored and varied by the processor. The processor is also configured to activate or deactivate different phases of the voltage converter in accordance with load current conditions.
