Fuzzy logic controlled monolithic switching regulator in BCD technology

A monolithic architecture to realize a high-performance switching regulator with nonlinear fuzzy logic control is introduced. An overview of the main issues related to PWM DC/DC conversion in continuous mode is reported and an introduction to nonlinear fuzzy logic control is given. The main analog fuzzy logic blocks are illustrated and the overall architecture presented with the main results obtained.
