A load line regulated switched-mode power converter supplies an output
voltage and an output current to a load. The power converter includes an
inductor, a switch coupled to the inductor, a first impedance, a second
impedance, and a power converter controller. The power converter
controller includes a first sense circuit to obtain momentary information
on a first current which flows through the first impedance, and which is
related to the output current. A difference between a zero load voltage
and the output voltage is determined to obtain a difference level. A
second sense circuit supplies further information on a second current
which flows through the second impedance, and which is related to the
first current. An integrator integrates a difference between the further
information and the difference level to obtain a correction signal. A
switch controller receives the difference level, the momentary
information and the correction signal to control the switch to obtain a
substantially zero correction signal in a steady state.
