Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a DC-to-DC converter that converts a DC voltage from a power line to a desired output voltage. The converter includes two switching circuits that are controlled by pulse control signals. One switching circuit is connected between the power line and the output terminal, while the other is connected between the output terminal and ground.

The converter also includes a pulse control signal generation circuit that receives two input levels: a first level associated with the output voltage and a second level of a reference voltage. If the second level is higher than the first level, the pulse control signal generation circuit generates a first pulse control signal to increase the output voltage. On the other hand, if the second level is lower than the first level, the circuit generates a second pulse control signal.

In summary, the DC-to-DC converter adjusts the output voltage based on the input levels and generates the appropriate pulse control signals to control the switching circuits.


Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed is a DC-to-DC converter which includes a first switching circuit connected between a power line receiving a DC voltage and an output terminal of the DC-to-DC converter and switched based on a first pulse control signal, a second switching circuit connected between the output terminal and a ground and switched based on a second pulse control signal, a pulse control signal generation circuit that receives a first level of a first voltage associated with an output voltage and a second level of a first reference voltage, wherein, in response to the second level being higher than the first level, the pulse control signal generation circuit is configured to generate the first pulse control signal to increase the output voltage and wherein, in response to the second level being lower than the first level, the pulse control signal generation circuit is configured to generate the second pulse control signal.
