Abstract
Switched-mode power supply (SMPS) integrated circuit including direct current step-down converter, switch, and element for potential energy storage in electric field and having T-On voltage. SMPS configured to: receive DC input current and output through load; operate in boundary conduction mode applying pulse-width-modulated voltage to switch for controlling T-On/T-Off duty cycle; generate regulated T-On current setting maximum T-On; monitor input voltage by reduction to voltage signal range; convert signal voltage to signal current value within current signal range; output T-On modulation current including signal current; combine T-On modulation current with regulated T-On current during T-On period to store potential energy in element while monitoring T-On voltage of element; and initiate T-Off period when potential energy stored in element reaches maximum T-On voltage. Further SMPS's. Method of operating SMPS's.
