Abstract

A portable control loop is provided for current sensing DC-DC converter. The DC-DC converter includes a power circuit, an external circuit, a control circuit and a duty cycle integration circuit. The power circuit comprises at least one controllable switch to regulate current from an input voltage. The external circuit comprises at least one output inductor and a capacitor. The duty cycle integration circuit receives a voltage differential signal across the output inductor and generates a compensation signal based at least on the voltage differential signal. The control circuit receives the compensation signal and feedback from load voltage and generates a control signal to control the controllable switch within the power circuit.
