Abstract
A power converter is presented. The power converter may be configured to receive an input voltage at an input node of the power converter and to generate an output voltage at an output node of the power converter. The power converter may comprise an inductor coupled between an inductor node and the output node. The power converter may comprise a flying capacitor coupled between a first capacitor node and a second capacitor node. The power converter may comprise a first switching element coupled between the input node and the first capacitor node. The power converter may comprise a second switching element coupled between the second capacitor node and the inductor node. The power converter may be configured to, during a first phase of a buck operation mode, open the second switching element such that the second capacitor node is isolated from the inductor node.
