20100156375 | CONTROL DEVICE FOR A SWITCHING CONVERTER - A control device for a switching converter, the converter having at least one transistor supplied by an input voltage and adapted to supply a load by means of an output voltage. The converter also including a circuit adapted to turn on and off the at least one transistor. The control device includes an operation circuit adapted to change the state of the at least one transistor from turned on to turned off or vice versa, respectively when the output voltage goes down or goes up by a first voltage of a given value by defining a first state; the operation circuit including a further circuit adapted to generate a ramp signal and to change the first state of the at least one transistor from turned on to turned off or vice versa when the ramp voltage is equal to the output voltage of the converter. | 06-24-2010 |

20100072968 | CONTROL SYSTEM FOR SWITCHING DC-DC CONVERTERS - A control system for a switching DC-DC converter is proposed. The converter includes an input terminal for receiving an input voltage from a source, a control terminal adapted to receive a switching control signal, and an output terminal for providing to a load an output voltage generated from the input voltage according to the control signal. The control system includes detecting means for detecting a reaching condition of a predetermined value by a current provided to the load by the converter and control means for controlling the control signal according to the output voltage. The control system further includes disabling means for disabling the supply of the control signal to the control terminal according to the detection of the reaching condition. The disabling means includes selection means for controlling the disabling according to a time relationship between the detection of the reaching condition and the control signal. | 03-25-2010 |
