In this thesis, We design a new active current sensing circuit and apply this technology fo hysteresis-current-controlled buck/buck-boost converter using active current sensing circuit for portable applications. In the proposed DC-DC converter, the key building blocks includes power MOS, Voltage-current conversion circuit, hysteresis-current comparator, driving circuit, non-overlapping circuit and current sensing circuit. The current sensing circuit can fully sense the inductor current and be used to construct buck/buck-boost converter. The hysteresis-current-controlled can be worked in parallel. The proposed circuits have been designed with TSMC 0.35um DPQM CMOS processes. The experimental results show that the buck/ buck-boost converter works well with the following features: the maximum inductor current up to 750mA; the input voltage range is 3~6V; the output voltage range from 0.45 to input voltage-0.4V; the maximum power efficiency up to 93.6%.
