Abstract:
A power converter comprises an inductor coupled between a switching terminal and an output terminal of the power converter, a high side switching element coupled between an input terminal of the power converter and the switching terminal, a low side switching element coupled between the switching terminal and a reference terminal, and a feedback circuit comprising a continuous comparator unit configured to compare a ramp signal with an error signal using a first enable signal, a latched comparator unit configured to compare the ramp signal with the error signal using a second enable signal, wherein the error signal is based on a difference between a reference voltage and an output voltage at the output terminal of the power converter.

Claim (Index 13):
A method for controlling the high side switching element and the low side switching element of a power converter comprising an inductor coupled between a switching terminal and an output terminal of the power converter, wherein the high side switching element is coupled between an input terminal of the power converter and the switching terminal, and the low side switching element is coupled between the switching terminal and a reference terminal, the method comprising:\n providing a latched comparator unit in a feedback circuit of the power converter; and comparing, by the latched comparator unit, a ramp signal with an error signal, wherein the error signal is based on a difference between a reference voltage and an output voltage at the output terminal of the power converter.
