Current mode hysteretic buck converter with auto-selectable frequency locking circuit
A current mode hysteretic buck converter employing an auto-selectable frequency locking circuit is disclosed. The auto-selectable frequency locking type buck converter include a current mode hysteretic buck converter for converting an input DC voltage into a lower DC voltage, and a frequency locking unit for locking a switching frequency of the current mode hysteretic buck converter wherein the switching frequency is locked through adjusting a locking value of the switching frequency to be a predetermined value according to a size of a load. The buck converter is, based on the current mode hysteretic control, related to a circuit that locks the switching frequency of the converter to reduce the difficulty of designing electromagnetic interference (EMI) filters in the converter. In addition, the buck converter can improve the efficiency at light load by adjusting the switching frequency which is locked according to the load current.
