Introduction
Switching regulators have been with us for many years. They were considered tricky to design
and still are. In 1976 Silicon General (later LinFinity, then Microsemi), introduced the first
monolithic (IC-based) switching controller, the SG1524 “Pulse Width Integrated Circuit”. A little
later, this chip was improved and became the “SG3524” historic industry workhorse. And very soon
thereafter, it was available from multiple chip vendors. Keep in mind that switching stages based on
discrete designs were already gaining ground, particularly in military applications. In fact, some
resourceful engineers had even made “switch-mode power supplies” by adding related circuitry
around one of the highest-selling chips in history: the “555 timer” (sometimes called the “IC Time
Machine”), introduced in 1971 by Signetics (later Philips, then NXP). The SG1524 was however the
first IC in which all the required control functionality was present on a single chip/die. With the
rapidly escalating concurrent interest in switching power supplies at the time, it is no surprise that
as early as 1977 the very first book on the subject, written by the late Abraham Pressman, appeared
on the scene. Together, these events spurred interest in an area well beyond most people’s
expectations, and ushered in the world of switching power conversion as we know it today.
The SG1524/3524 drove a pair of (bipolar) switching transistors with a duty cycle” (ratio of switch
ON-time to the total time period) which was proportional to the “control voltage”. By using switching
transistors to switch the input voltage source ON and OFF into an LC low pass filter, a relatively
efficient voltage regulator was produced. At the heart of this regulator was the “PWM (pulse width
modulator) comparator”. The output pulse-train to drive the transistors with was a result of
applying a (relatively) smooth control voltage on one of this comparator’s input terminals, along
with a “sawtooth” or a “PWM ramp” generated from the clock, on its other input. See Figure 1. This
technique is known as "voltage-mode programming”, or “voltage-mode control” (“VMC”) – since the
duty cycle is proportional to the control voltage. The control voltage is in effect the difference
between the actual output voltage and the “reference” value (the value we want to fix the output at,
i.e. the “setpoint”). We will discuss this figure in more detail shortly.
Another well-known technique today, which has also been around since the 80s, senses the peak
current in the power switch or inductor, and turns the switch OFF at a programmed level of
current. This technique is called current-mode control (“CMC”). Keep in mind it was not brand-
new at the time. In fact it had been discovered years ago, but few had realized its significance till
Unitrode Corp. (now Texas Instruments) came along. It received a huge boost in popularity in the
form of the world’s first current-mode control (CMC) chip, the Flyback controller UC1842 from
Unitrode. In CMC, there is in effect a (fast-acting) “inner” current loop along with the “outer”
(slower) “voltage loop” which carries out the output regulation. See the note on ramp generation
within Figure 1, indicating how this particular aspect is different between VMC and CMC. Prima
