Abstract:
A DC-DC buck converter includes a buck conversion circuit, a PWM control circuit and a light-load control circuit. A switching circuit in the buck conversion circuit includes multiple upper switching elements and lower switching elements. The PWM control circuit is coupled to the buck conversion circuit and output a control signal to control the upper and lower switching elements. The light-load control circuit, coupled to the PWM control circuit and the buck conversion circuit for receiving an output voltage, the control signal and a light-load threshold value. The light-load control circuit is provided to determine whether the DC-DC buck converter is in a light load state and turn off at least one of the upper switching elements and at least one of the lower switching elements in the light load state.

Claim (Index 3):
The DC-DC buck converter in accordance with  claim 1 , wherein the switching circuit includes a first upper switching element, a second upper switching element, a first lower switching element and a second lower switching element, the first and second upper switching elements are configured to receive a input voltage and electrically connect to the LC circuit, and the first and second lower switching elements are electrically connected to the LC circuit and a ground end, wherein the LC circuit is charged by the input voltage when the first or second switching element is turned on, and the LC circuit is discharged when the first or second lower switching element is turned on.
