A system and method are disclosed for providing switch size management in
a direct current to direct current (DC-DC) converter circuit for a radio
frequency (RF) power amplifier. An output voltage reference signal is
provided to a DC-DC converter that comprises a first switch circuit and a
second switch circuit. The output voltage reference signal is compared to
a threshold voltage. If the output voltage reference signal is lower than
the threshold voltage, control circuitry selects a first switch size. If
the output voltage reference signal is higher than the threshold voltage,
then the control circuitry selects a second switch size. Selecting an
appropriate switch size improves the operating efficiency of the DC-DC
converter.
