Abstract
The start-up trajectory of the operating point of a DC-to-DC converter normally includes a high current locus which must be traversed to reach the steady-state operating point. In the case of a converter powered by a current-limited source, such as a power supply system where one converter powers a plurality of subsequent converters, the subsequent converters may be unable to turn on due to inadequate current drive. By using a control circuit adapted to control the start-up trajectory of a DC-to-DC converter as a continuous function of the input voltage applied to it by the current-limited source, the start-up characteristics are constrained to be compatible to both source and load permitting the converter to proceed to its steady-state operating point.
