Abstract

This paper proposes a DC-DC Buck-Converter with DT-CMOS (Dynamic Thresholdvoltage MOSFET) Switch. The proposed circuit was evaluated and compared with a CMOS switch by both the circuit and device simulations. The DT-CMOS switch reduced the output ripple and the conduction loss through a low on-resistance. Overall, the proposed circuit showed excellent performance efficiency compared to the converter with conventional CMOS switch. The proposed circuit has switching frequency of 1.2MHz, 3.3V input voltage, 2.5V output voltage, and maximum current of 100mA. In addition, this paper proposes a SCP (Short Circuit Protection) circuit to ensure reliability.
