ABSTRACT:
In connection with converting power from an input source for delivery to a load, a quantized converter has a switch which is controlled to undergo transitions between conductive and non-conductive states in each of a series of converter operating cycles. A switch controller reduces an error between (i) an actual time of occurrence of a particular one of the transitions in one of the operating cycles and (ii) a desired time of occurrence of the particular transition, based upon information about a prior error in timing which occurred in a previous one of the operating cycles.
