Dual-Phase Inverting Buck/Boost Supply Gets -5.2 V/15 A From 12 V
The most common use for a synchronous buck controller is high-efficiency conversion of a positive voltage to a lower positive voltage. But it can also produce a negative voltage from a positive voltage. In negative output applications, a buck controller can be configured as an inverting buck/boost device, where the negative output voltage has an absolute value either higher or lower than its positive input. To transform a buck converter to a buck/boost,...
