Abstract
An electronic device has a modulator circuit, a pulse adjustment circuit, and a pulse generator circuit. The modulator circuit generates a comparator output signal based on a sensed inductor current signal of a power converter, an error amplifier output voltage signal, and a ramp signal to regulate an output voltage signal of the power converter. The pulse adjustment circuit generates an adjusted pulse signal based on the comparator output signal and the error amplifier output voltage signal, and to generate an adjusted clock signal based on an input clock signal and the error amplifier output voltage signal. The pulse generator circuit generates a switching control signal to control a transistor of the power converter based on the adjusted pulse signal and the adjusted clock signal.
