Figure 2: Valley Current Mode Control. Hold on tight — we're not done yet! Emulated current mode control (ECMC) Emulated peak current mode control (Fig. 3) is the new kid on the block. It combines the ...

Figure 1 shows the basic working principle of a current-mode regulator. ... All in all, the advantages of current-mode control in switching regulators outweigh the disadvantages for most applications.

(Part 1 of this article provides an overview of basic current-mode control (CMC) circuits and demonstrates the need for slope compensation). Let's assume a typical application where V out and L are ...

Switch-mode power supplies can use digital current-mode techniques for protection against peak currents, magnetic field "ratcheting," and input-voltage variations. Digital control of switch-mode ...

4th course in the Modeling and Control of Power ElectronicsInstructor: Dragan Maksimovic, Ph.D., Professor The course is focused on current-mode control techniques, which are very frequently applied ...
