Abstract
A multi-phase power switching converter having first and second states includes a pulse width modulator having an output, a converter output providing an output signal, and a plurality of drivers, each having an output electrically coupled to the converter output and an input. When the converter is in the first state where a duty cycle of the converter is less than or equal to 100 divided by the number of drivers, each of the driver inputs is configured to be sequentially electrically coupled to the pulse width modulator output. When the converter is in the second state where the duty cycle of the converter is greater than 100 divided by the number of drivers, each of the driver inputs is simultaneously electrically coupled to the pulse width modulator output.
