Abstract
A configurable control loop arrangement for forming a control loop of a DC-DC converter that is configured to generate a control signal to control the DC-DC converter, the configurable control loop arrangement comprising: a digital-to-analog converter; a comparator; a timer configured to provide a timing-signal for controlling one or more of: the comparator in the determination of the comparison signal; the application of the comparison signal to a configurable-event-generation-logic-module; and the operation of the configurable-event-generation-logic-module; wherein the configurable-event-generation-logic-module comprises a flip-flop circuit, and wherein the configurable-event-generation-logic-module, when implemented in the control loop, is configured to provide for generation of the control signal based on the comparison signal, the timing-signal and a selected mode of the flip-flop circuit, and wherein the control signal is for application to one or more switches of the DC-DC converter.
