Abstract
In one embodiment, a multiphase power control system uses two control lines from a PWM section to control the switch controllers of the system. The two control signals contain power control information in addition to timing information. The switch controller uses the two control signals to facilitate enabling and disabling a power switch of the multiphase power control system.
