Abstract:
A method includes generating a first ramp signal for controlling a first portion of a converter, generating a second ramp signal for controlling a second portion of the converter, controlling a state of a first switch of the first portion through comparing the first ramp signal to a control signal and a state of a first switch of the second portion through comparing the second ramp signal to the control signal and determining a switching cycle of the converter through comparing a current flowing through an inductor of the converter to a threshold.

Claim (Index 19):
A converter comprising:\n a buck converter portion, an inductor and a boost converter portion connected in cascade; and a controller configured to compare a current flowing through the inductor to a current threshold and determine a switching cycle of the converter through comparing the current flowing through the inductor to the current threshold.
