Abstract
This paper presents a new digital current-mode control technique for single-inductor multiple-output converters in continuous-conduction mode. This predictive control method can calculate all the required duty cycles corresponding to the outputs for the next switching cycle. Since the calculation is based on every current reference representing the load current, all current control loops corresponding to different outputs are theoretically independent, which can greatly reduce the cross regulation. To avoid subharmonic oscillation, proper predictive digital current control is adopted. Inductor current estimation is used to remove the current sensing circuit, and corresponding calibration techniques are presented. Simulation and experimental results are given to verify the effectiveness of this control technique.
