Control scheme for DC-DC power converters with ultra-fast dynamic response
Methods and apparatus for determining a value of a pulse-width modulation (PWM) signal with which to drive a power stage of a DC-to-DC voltage converter having an output inductor coupled between the power stage and an output node that is couplable to a load. A plurality of control schemes for determining a value of a PWM signal with which to drive the power stage are maintained. A value of the PWM signal currently driving the power stage is monitored. A value of an inductor current flowing through the output inductor is monitored. A value of a load current being provided to the load is monitored. One of the plurality of control schemes is selected based on the value of the PWM signal currently driving the power stage, the value of the inductor current, and the value of the load current. The selected control scheme is used to determine a value of a PWM signal with which to drive the power stage.
