Abstract:
Disclosed examples include inverting buck-boost DC-DC converter circuits with a switching circuit to alternate between first and second buck mode phases for buck operation in a first mode, including connecting an inductor and a capacitor in series between an input node and a reference node to charge the inductor and the capacitor in the first buck mode phase, and connecting the inductor and the capacitor in parallel between an output node and the reference node to discharge the inductor and the capacitor to the output node. For boost operation in a second mode, the switching circuit alternates between connecting the inductor and the capacitor in series between the input node and the reference node to discharge the inductor and charge the capacitor in a first boost mode phase, and connecting the inductor between the input node and the reference node to charge the inductor and connecting the capacitor between the first output node and the reference node to discharge the capacitor to deliver power to the output node in a second boost mode phase.

Claim (Index 13):
The integrated circuit of  claim 12 , wherein:\n the first, second, and third transistors each has a first transistor size based on an absolute output voltage rating associated with the output terminal; the fourth transistor has a second transistor size based on an input voltage rating associated with the input terminal; and the fifth transistor has a third transistor size based on a sum of the input voltage rating and the absolute output voltage.
