Abstract:
A circuit, comprising a trapezoidal generator that comprises digital logic configured to couple at a first input to a loop controller and at a second input to a buck-boost region detector and a driver coupled to an output of the digital logic and configured to couple to at least one power transistor of a power converter.

Claim (Index 16):
A method, comprising:\n controlling a power converter to generate an output voltage according to a power transistor on-time (Ton) in which an inductor associated with the power converter is configured to charge and a power transistor off-time (Toff) in which the inductor associated with the power converter is configured to discharge; determining whether the power converter is operating in a buck-boost region based at least partially on two of a input voltage of the power converter, the output voltage, or an inductor current of the inductor associated with the power converter; continuing to control the power converter according to Ton and Toff when the power converter is not operating in the buck-boost region; and controlling the power converter, when the power converter is operating in the buck-boost region, to generate the output voltage according to Ton, Toff, and at least one common mode time (COM) in which an input terminal of the power converter at which the input voltage is present is shorted to an output terminal of the power converter at which the output voltage is present.
