Abstract:

A voltage converter is disclosed to include a high-side switch circuit block comprising a plurality of high-side switching elements and a low-side switch circuit block comprising a plurality of low-side switching elements. The voltage converter may include an intermediate node coupled to one or more high-side switching elements and coupled to one or more low-side switching elements. The voltage converter may further include a segmentation circuit block communicatively coupled to the high-side switch circuit block and communicatively coupled to the low-side switch circuit block.
