Abstract
A buck boost converter includes a buck boost converter circuit to generate an output voltage in response to an input voltage, and a mode control logic circuit to generate a mode control signal to control an operation mode of the buck boost converter circuit to operate in one of a buck mode, a boost mode, and a buck-boost mode. The buck boost converter circuit includes an upper buck transistor coupled to an input voltage node, the input voltage node to receive the input voltage, an upper boost transistor coupled to an output voltage node, the output voltage node to output the output voltage, and an inductor coupled between the upper buck transistor and the upper boost transistor. The mode control signal is generated based on a first duty cycle of the upper buck transistor and a second duty cycle of the upper boost transistor.
