Integrated circuit for controlling power converter by frequency modulation and pulse width modulation

摘要

An integrated circuit contains the gate drivers and the control components for constructing a DC power supply in any of the most popular converter topologies. Multi-function elements in the control circuit minimize the area of the chip. The integrated circuit drives both the upper and lower switches of a half-bridge converter and separately regulates two power supply output voltages, one by pulse width modulation and the other by frequency modulation.
