Patent ID: 8706313

Claim:
A method for controlling a power converter the method comprising: initializing one or more coefficients of a compensation function, wherein the one or more coefficients determine a loop gain and respective positions of compensation zeros defined by the compensation function; subsequent to said initializing, operating the power converter according to at least the compensation function, the power regulator generating a regulated output voltage; measuring one or more state variables of the power converter during operation of the power converter; obtaining nominal steady state values of the regulated output voltage based on the measured one or more state variables; determining a first output threshold value based on at least one of the obtained nominal steady state values of the regulated output voltage; adjusting at least a first coefficient of the one or more coefficients of the compensation function until the regulated output voltage exceeds the first output threshold value; and adjusting at least a second coefficient of the one or more coefficients of the compensation function until the regulated output voltage reaches the first output threshold value.
