Abstract

Switching power converters for regulating voltage at an output of a load include digital control circuitry for sensing an output voltage feedback signal, comparing the sensed feedback signal to a reference at a determined time during a cycling of the switch; and regulating the output voltage by either enabling or inhibiting cycling of a switch by a cycle of a drive signal produced by pulse generation circuitry in response to the comparison.
