Includes bibliographical references (p. 119-120). The new buck regulator proposed in this thesis was designed to operate with only a few micro-amps of supply current during no load output conditions, while maintaining low output voltage ripple. The regulator also has high efficiency for current loads above an amp to make the converter useful in a variety of applications. The specifications will be achieved by implementing a control scheme similar to the one used in the LT3481 buck regulator. The converter will use burst mode, pulse frequency modulation, and pulse width modulation to achieve control over the entire load range. The capabilities of a full BiCMOS process technology will be taken advantage of to enable implementation of good control dynamics at low currents. This micropower buck regulator was designed, fabricated, and tested in silicon to measure its characteristics as compared to simulation and desired specifications. by John Underhill Gardner.
