Abstract

Voltage conversion methods, circuits and devices. In some embodiments, a method for performing voltage conversion can include converting an input voltage to an output voltage, and comparing a feedback signal based on the output voltage and a reference voltage, to generate an error signal based on the comparing. The method can further include generating a feedforward signal based on the input voltage, with an operation of a current mirror. The method can further include adjusting the converting based at least in part on the feedforward signal.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method for performing voltage conversion, the method comprising:
 converting an input voltage to an output voltage;   comparing a feedback signal based on the output voltage and a reference voltage, and generating an error signal based on the comparing;   generating a feedforward signal based on the input voltage, with an operation of a current mirror; and   adjusting the converting based at least in part on the feedforward signal.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1  wherein the adjusting is further based on the error signal. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1  wherein the generating of the feedforward signal is based at least in part on a change in the input voltage.
