Power converter
- Summary
- A fast transient response converter is disclosed which makes use of stepping inductor in a switching converter to speed up output voltage response under fast transient condition. The inductive element in a switching converter is replaced by two series or parallel inductive elements, one of which has a smaller value of inductance than the other. During the fast transient period, the inductor with larger inductance value will be shorted to a voltage source. The total inductance will be greatly reduced and thus allows rapid current change during the transient change.

Title: Power converter
Usefulness: Power converter
Summary: E.g. buck converter, boost converter, flyback converter, forward converter, push-pull converter, resonant converter, full bridge converter, Cuk converter, Sepic converter and half bridge converter used for computer application.
Novelty: Power converter e.g. buck converter for computer application, detects output voltage and accordingly operates MOSFETs to couple transformer winding to low impedance element during transient decrease in output power
