  • Abstract
    A single-inductor multiple-output switching converter operates in pseudo-CCM/DCM. It requires freewheeling of the inductor current during the instants when the n switch and all output p switches are off. It is fabricated in a 0.5 /spl mu/m CMOS n-well process with Voa=2.5 V and Vob=3.0 V. With 1 /spl mu/H inductor, converter efficiency is 84.7% at 1 MHz.
