Abstract:
Aspects of various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to applications utilizing voltage regulation. In certain embodiments, an oscillator circuit is configured to generate an oscillating signal having a frequency specified by a frequency control signal. A switching power converter is configured to regulate a voltage at an output node according to a target value. The switching power converter enables a path that provides a current to the output node for cycles of the oscillating signal in which the output voltage is below (or above) a first threshold voltage. The switching power converter prevents the path from being enabled for cycles of the oscillating signal in which the output voltage is above (or below) a second threshold voltage. A control circuit adjusts the frequency control signal based on the number of cycles of the oscillating signal in which the path is presented from being enabled.
