Abstract
A PWM controller of a DC-DC converter is provided. The DC-DC converter converts an input voltage into an output voltage and comprises an output inductor coupled between an output of the DC-DC converter and a phase node. A first sense circuit senses a signal from the phase node to generate a first signal corresponding to the input voltage. A second sense circuit senses the signal from the phase node to generate a second signal corresponding to the output voltage. A PWM generator controls a first transistor and a second transistor of the DC-DC converter according to the first and second signals. The first transistor is coupled between the input voltage and the phase node, and the second transistor is coupled between the phase node and a ground.
