ABSTRACT:
An embodiment of a hysteretic power-supply controller includes a signal generator, frequency adjuster, and signal combiner. The signal generator is operable to generate a switching signal having a first level in response to a control signal being greater than a first reference value and having a second level in response to the control signal being less than a second reference value, the switching signal having an actual frequency and being operable to drive a switching stage that generates a regulated output signal. The frequency adjuster is operable to generate a frequency-adjust signal that is related to a difference between the actual frequency and a desired frequency. And the signal combiner is operable to generate the control signal from the frequency-adjust signal and the regulated output signal. Such a hysteretic power-supply controller may allow one to set the switching frequency to a desired value independently of the parameters of the power supply.
