Overview
This presentation will give a brief history of analog control followed by the recent trends of mixed-signal control of power converters, often just called Digital-Control. The focus will be on switching dc-dc converters and no prior experience in digital power systems is required. Key concepts will be explained in an intuitive manner, leaving out the detailed mathematics to best understand the concepts.
