Claim Text:
1. A boost converter circuit, comprising: a power supply; an inductor coupled to the power supply to receive current from the power supply; a diode coupled to receive current from the inductor and coupled to provide current to a load as an output; an inductor switch coupled to a node between the inductor and the diode for selectively switching an inductor current to receive a current to the inductor from the power supply, or output the inductor current to a load; and a ramp circuit coupled to the node between the inductor and the diode, wherein the ramp circuit is configured to selectively sample a voltage at the node between the inductor and the diode via a sampling switch and use the sampled signal to produce a stabilization ramp to stabilize the output.
