Abstract

A non-inverting buck boost DC-DC converter operates with a ripple-hysteretic-current-mode-control including: a first state where control signals close a first high side switch and a second low side switch; a second state where control signals close the first high side switch and a second high side switch; a third state where control signals close a first low side switch and the second high side switch; and a fourth state where control signals close the first low side switch and the second low side switch. Control signal peak voltage and valley voltage are detected. Passing between the first, second, third and fourth states is dependent on peak voltage detection, valley voltage detection, expiration of a variable first time interval following entering the second state, and expiration of a fixed second time interval following entering the third state.
