Abstract

Emerging feature dense portable microelectronic devices pose several challenges, including demanding multiple supply voltages from a single miniaturized power-efficient platform. Unfortunately, the power inductors used in magnetic-based switching converters (which are power efficient) are bulky and difficult to integrate. As a result, single-inductor-multiple-output (SIMO) solutions enjoy popularity, but not without design challenges. This brief describes, illustrates, and evaluates how SIMO dc-dc converters operate, transfer energy, and control (through negative feedback) each of their outputs.
