This disclosure describes techniques for controlling switching regulator switching operations. The techniques include selecting a given one of a plurality of clock signals based on a control signal. The techniques further include generating, by the switching regulator, an output voltage from an input voltage by controlling one or more switches according to a switching frequency that corresponds to the selected given one of the plurality of clock signals. The techniques further include varying the switching frequency of the switching regulator by changing a value of the control signal, used to select the given one of the plurality of clock signals, according to a given one of a plurality of refresh rate control signals that corresponds to the selected given one of the plurality of clock signals having respective values that correspond to respective ones of the plurality of refresh rate control signals.
