A power supply system, which has a switched-tank converter with an adjustable conversion ratio, includes a first-stage power converter, a second-stage power converter, and a controller. The first-stage power converter converts a supply voltage to a first output voltage, and modulates the first output voltage according to a modulation signal. A second-stage power converter converts the first output voltage to a second output voltage, and generates a power signal according to the output power of the second output voltage. The controller determines, according to the power signal, whether the output power exceeds a threshold to generate the modulation signal.

Power supply system, a switched tank converter, and methods thereof

A multi-phase power supply for stepdown system includes a plurality of first stage voltage converters, a plurality of second stage voltage converters and a controller. The first stage voltage converters are under open-loop control, and the second stage voltage converters are under close-loop voltage regulation control. The first stage voltage converters convert an input voltage to generate a midway voltage. The second stage voltage converters convert the midway voltage to generate an output voltage. The controller receives the output current of each phase of the first stage voltage converters and the second stage voltage converters, the input voltage, the midway voltage of each phase and the output voltage. The controller adjusts a number of enabled phases and balances the output current according to the output currents, and outputs stable power according to the input voltage, the midway voltage and the output voltage.
