Abstract:
Described examples include DC-DC power conversion systems, apparatus and methods for linearizing a DC-DC circuit conversion gain, including a gain circuit providing an output signal according to a gain value and the difference between a first compensation signal and a threshold signal, and a switching circuit selectively operative when the first compensation signal exceeds the threshold signal to linearize the conversion gain by providing a second compensation signal for pulse width modulation of at least one DC-DC converter switch according to the threshold signal and the gain circuit output signal.

Claim (Index 16):
A circuit, comprising:\n a comparator configured to assert a first mode signal when a first compensation voltage is less than a linearization threshold voltage, and assert a second mode signal when the first compensation voltage is greater than the linearization threshold voltage; and a gain circuit configured to convert the first compensation voltage and the linearization threshold voltage to a first current and a second current respectively, and generate an output current scaling a differential current between the first and second currents by a non-zero gain value; and a switching circuit coupled to the comparator, and configured to:\n select the first compensation voltage when the first mode signal is asserted; and \n select a second compensation voltage when the second mode signal is asserted, the second compensation voltage summing the first compensation voltage with a scaled difference voltage based on the output current.
