Abstract
A power converter includes first to fourth switches, a flying capacitor, an inductor, an output capacitor and a control circuit. The first to fourth switches are sequentially coupled in cascode. The first switch is used to receive an input voltage. The flying capacitor is coupled across the second switch and the third switch, the inductor is coupled to the second switch, the third switch and the output capacitor. The output capacitor is used to output an output voltage. When the input voltage is less than an input voltage threshold, the control circuit is used to switch the first to fourth switches according to a resonant frequency. When the input voltage exceeds the input voltage threshold, the control circuit switch is used to the first to fourth switches according to a regulated frequency exceeding the resonant frequency.
