Abstract

A method of controlling a power converter having at least one switching device for supplying an output voltage and a load current to a load is disclosed. The method includes sensing the output voltage and sensing the load current. The method further includes controlling a duty cycle of the switching device according to the sensed output voltage and a voltage control loop when a rate of change of the load current does not exceed a threshold level. The method also includes adjusting the duty cycle of the switching device set by the voltage control loop when the rate of change of the load current exceeds the threshold level.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to US Provisional Application No. 60 / 997,051 filed September 28,2007. The entire disclosures of the aforementioned applications are incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to power converters. Background technique [0004] This section provides information related to the background of the present invention which may not necessarily constitute prior art. [0005] Many modern electronic systems require high current slew rates. This fast transient step load requires careful design of the power converter's voltage control loop and output filter to keep voltage overshoot and undershoot within required specifications. This often results in reduced output inductors and increased switching frequency. [0006] In a typical PFC boost pre-regulator, large voltage swings in large power supplies are an important factor for sizing the bulk capacito...
