Abstract:
A DC-DC converter, which allows a current to pass through an inductor and rectifies the current through the inductor to convert an input direct current voltage supplied from a direct current power unit into a direct current voltage at a different potential and output the direct current voltage, includes a switching control circuit performing peak-current control procedures including turning on the switching element when the converted direct current voltage drops to a predetermined potential and turning off the switching element when the current through the inductor reaches a predetermined value. The converter includes a copied-current generating circuit generating a current proportional to the output current. The switching control circuit turns off the switching element when the circuit detects that the current through the inductor reaches a predetermined value with reference to a combined current of the copied current generated at the copied-current generating circuit and a predetermined reference current.

Claim (Index 1):
A DC-DC converter that turns on or off a switching element which allows a current to pass through an inductor and rectifies the current through the inductor to convert an input direct current voltage supplied from a direct current power unit into a direct current voltage at a different potential and output the direct current voltage, the converter comprising:\n a switching control circuit performing peak-current control procedures comprising turning on the switching element when the converted direct current voltage drops to a predetermined potential and turning off the switching element when the current through the inductor reaches a predetermined value; and a copied-current generating circuit generating a copied current proportional to the output current, wherein the switching control circuit turns off the switching element when the switching control circuit detects that the current through the inductor reaches a predetermined value with reference to a combined current of the copied current generated at the copied-current generating circuit and a predetermined reference current.
