Circuit and method for switching PFM and PWM

摘要

The switching method between pulse frequency modulation and pulse width modulation signals is first based on an output voltage of a power transistor to generate a corresponding pulse frequency modulation signal. Next, it is determined whether the corresponding pulse frequency modulation signal has reached its maximal frequency. If so, the initial pulse width modulation signal is adjusted to have the same width as the pulse frequency modulation signal. Thereafter, the adjusted pulse width modulation signal is outputted.
