Abstract
In accordance with an embodiment, a DC-DC converter is provided comprising a single regulation loop that drives a control circuit, wherein the control circuit selects between operation in a pulse width modulation operating mode and a pulse frequency modulation operating mode, the single regulation loop including a compensation loop, and wherein biasing of the compensation loop is maintained in response to selecting between the pulse width modulation and the pulse frequency modulation operating modes.

A converter, comprising:
- an analog loop control circuit having a first input and a first output;
- an operating mode control circuit having a first input and a first output, the first input of the operating mode control circuit coupled to the first output of the analog loop control circuit;
- and
- an output stage having a first input and a first output, the first input of the output stage coupled to the first output of the operating mode control circuit and the first output of the output stage coupled to the first input of the analog loop control circuit.
