Abstract

System and methods for a power converter are described. A controller can generate first clock signals and generate pulse width modulation (PWM) signals using the first clock signals to operate a first number of active phases in a power converter to supply power to a load. The controller can determine the load demands a second number, greater than the first number, of active phases to supply the power. The controller can generate pulse signals and combine the pulse signals with the first clock signals to generate second clock signals having a higher frequency than the first clock signals. The controller can generate the PWM signals using the second clock signals to operate the second number of active phases in the power converter to supply power to the load.
