Abstract
Representative implementations of devices and techniques minimize switching losses in a switched capacitor de-de converter. Variable frequency control, including Pulse frequency modulation, is used to control switching based on an existing load. As an example, a system may include a direct current to direct current converter (dc-dc converter) including an energy storage element, switches coupled to the energy storage element, and a digital controller arranged to modulate a switch timing of at least one switch of the switches by adjustment of a transition of a signal pulse provided to adjust an impedance of the at least one switch based on a load coupled to an output of the dc-dc converter.
