Abstract
A system includes a pulse width modulator and a shift generator. The pulse width modulator receives a saw-tooth signal and generates pulse width modulated pulses based on the saw-tooth signal to regulate an output voltage of a DC-to-DC converter. The shift generator generates a DC voltage in response to a change in an input voltage of the DC-to-DC converter and shifts the saw-tooth signal by the DC voltage to regulate the output voltage of the DC-to-DC converter.
