A dual loop DC-to-DC converter is provided that includes a first control loop that maintains a DC output voltage (VOUT) less than or equal to a desired maximum value of the VOUT, a second control loop that operates simultaneously with the first control loop and maintains a DC input voltage (VIN) greater than or equal to a desired minimum value of the VIN, and a duty cycle selection module. The first control loop generates a first clock signal having a first duty cycle, and the second control loop generates a second clock signal having a second duty cycle. The duty cycle selection module continuously determines which one of the first duty cycle and the second duty cycle has a lower duty cycle value, and continuously generates a PWM output signal having a modulated duty cycle equal to the lower duty cycle value.
