Abstract
A boost regulator that selectively operates in an asynchronous mode, a synchronous mode, or an adaptive mode. In the adaptive mode, the boost mode regulator controls a high side switch according to an adaptive dead time. Adaptive mode allows the boost regulator to operate more efficiently than in asynchronous mode.
