In this paper, a novel switched-capacitor DC-DC converter with pulse density and width modulation (PDWM) is proposed with reduced output ripple at variable output voltages. While performing pulse density modulation (PDM), the proposed PDWM modulates the pulse width at the same time to reduce the output ripple with high power efficiency. The prototype chip was implemented using 65 nm CMOS proces...

Conventional voltage mode control only offers limited performance for LLC series resonant DC-to-DC converters experiencing wide variations in operational conditions. When the existing voltage mode control is employed, the closed-loop performance of the converter is directly affected by unavoidable changes in power stage dynamics. Thus, a specific control design optimized at one particular opera...

A new technique for solving polynomial nonlinear constrained optimal control problems is presented. The problem is reformulated into a parametric optimization problem, which in turn is solved in a two step procedure. First, in a pre-computation step, the equation part of the corresponding first order optimality conditions is solved for a generic value of the parameter. Relying on the underlying...
