A conversion control circuit is configured to generate a PWM (pulse width modulation) signal to control a power switch for switching an inductor to convert an input voltage to an output voltage. The steps of generating the PWM signal includes: enabling the PWM signal at a rising edge of a clock signal to turn on the power switch; disabling the PWM signal to turn off the power switch when an on-time exceeds a predetermined minimum on-time and the output voltage has reached an output level; triggering a next rising edge of the clock signal when the off-time exceeds a predetermined minimum off-time, the output voltage has not reached the output level, and a present cycle period of the clock signal has reached a predetermined cycle period.

Switching power converter circuit and conversion control circuit and method thereof

A switching power converter includes: a power stage circuit, including at least one transistor which is configured to operably switch an inductor to convert an input power to an output power; and an active EMI filter circuit, including at least one amplifier, wherein the at least one amplifier is configured to operably sense a noise input signal which is related to a switching noise caused by the switching of the power stage circuit, and amplify the noise input signal to generate a noise cancelling signal, wherein the noise cancelling signal is injected into an input node of the switching power converter, so as to suppress the switching noise and thus reducing EMI, wherein the input power is provided through the input node to the power stage circuit.
