Title: Synchronous Buck Converter
Post by skywalker on Mar 1^st, 2006, 10:55am

Hello,
I would like to know much more about the design aspects of a Synchronous Buck regulator,as to how to different is it from a regular Buck apart from the topology- Could not find enough design resources online.Any suggested reading material,IEEE Transaction papers,EDN design ideas would be of great help to this novice!.

Thanks in advance.

I see they are part of TI now.. the appnotes are there..
Also Virginia Polytechnic Institude (Blacksburg, VA) used to run an annual conference on DC-DC design.. might look for papers/articles co-authored by Fred C. Lee..
