Transient processing mechanisms for power converters. Error generation
circuitry in a power converter may generate an error signal based on the
difference between a power converter output voltage and a reference
voltage. Transient detection circuitry may detect whether the error
signal exceeds at least a first threshold. If the first threshold is
exceeded, timing control logic may generate a low band correction pulse
to adjust the power converter output voltage, and thereby adjust the
error signal to a level within the first threshold. If the error signal
exceeds a second threshold, the timing control logic may generate a high
band correction pulse to adjust the power converter output voltage, and
thereby adjust the error signal to a level within the second threshold.
The timing control logic may initiate a low band blanking period
following the low band correction pulse and high band blanking period
following the high band correction pulse.
