Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is a general purpose programmable logic device
that can be configured by a customer after manufacturing to perform from a simple logic gate …

This article presents a digital current estimator designed for switching converters operating
under light load conditions. The proposed technique can estimate the inductor current for …

In order to solve the low-cost problem of high-speed current sampling in digital buck
controllers, a current estimation method based on the direct current resistance current …

Series capacitor buck (SCB) converters offer high efficiency and high power density even at
a higher step-down ratio by combining a switch capacitor network in a conventional buck …

The current feedback is considered as unavoidable part of most control system driving
power electronic converters. However, it is possible to eliminate the use of current sensor, if …

In this paper, a comparative analysis of the average switch/inductor current between ideal
and non-ideal buck and synchronous buck converters is performed and verified against a …

Nonintrusive current sensors process indirect measurements (eg, voltage) in order to
estimate the current flow through an electrical element. Within dc–dc power electronic …

This article proposes a load current-based adaptive voltage positioning (AVP) control
scheme, which applies the load current as the current injection information directly instead of …

The estimate of inductor equivalent series resistance (ESR) is required for different aspects
of dc-dc converter operation such as power sharing among parallel converters, current …

With the demand for the fast transient response of the voltage regulator module, current
mode controls are used to achieve high-bandwidth control, which brings the need for …
