Abstract:
A DC-DC converter includes: a first converter including a pass transistor coupled between the first node and a first output, and a body diode connected in parallel to the pass transistor; a sensor coupled between both ends of the pass transistor and which detects a driving current; and a second converter which outputs a second power voltage lower than the first power voltage to a second output. The second converter includes a master inverting converter which outputs the second power voltage independently of the driving current, a slave inverting converter which outputs the second power voltage when the driving current is greater than a predetermined threshold or when the input power voltage is greater than a predetermined boosting voltage limit, and an inverting converter controller which controls operations of the master and slave inverting converters in first and second drive modes based on the driving current and the input power voltage.

Claim (Index 4):
The DC-DC converter of  claim 2 , wherein each of the master inverting converter and the slave inverting converter comprises:\n a switch circuit including a first switch transistor coupled between the input power and a second node, a second switch transistor coupled between the second node and the second output, and a second inductor coupled between the second node and the ground, wherein the first and second switch transistors are alternately turned on to convert the input power voltage to the second power voltage; and a switch controller which receives the pulse width modulation signal from the pulse width modulation controller and controls an on/off operation of the first and the second switch transistors based on the pulse width modulation signal.
