  • Abstract
    In this paper, we propose a power converter synthesis design flow aimed at SOC applications. A buck DC-DC converter and a low dropout (LDO) linear regulator, both with controllers are studied. We apply both the knowledge-based and the simulation-based methods in the proposed flow and they lead to an accurate result when it is compared with the design specification. Demonstration cases validate our work.
