Abstract
A voltage converter for converting an input voltage to an output voltage is disclosed. The voltage converter includes a voltage converter circuit having a set of switches, a switch driver connected to the voltage converter circuit, a controller connected to the switch driver and the output voltage, a target output voltage connected to the controller, a control signal generated by the controller for the switch driver that includes a duty ratio based on the target output voltage and the output voltage. The switch driver is configured to apply the control signal to the set of switches and the voltage converter circuit generates the output voltage based on the duty ratio to match the target output voltage.
