A DC to DC converter includes a comparator, a driver, and a pair of
switches. The comparator compares the output voltage with a reference
voltage signal and generates a PWM signal. The driver drives the switches
so as to force the output voltage to follow the reference signal. In a
multiphase architecture, two or more such converter circuits are
incorporated to minimize the output voltage ripple and further reduce the
recovery time. In a two-phase architecture, two reference signals are
phase-shifted by 180 degrees. In an N-phase architecture, the reference
signals are phase-shifted by 360/N degrees.
