Zusammenfassung: | The present disclosure provides a switched voltage converter for receiving a source voltage and producing an output voltage. The voltage converter comprises a switch controller and a switched device communicatively coupled to the switch controller. The switch controller adjusts the output voltage by controlling a duty cycle of the switched device. The switched device is sized such that it is characterized by a drain-to-source breakdown voltage greater than or substantially equal to the source voltage and the output voltage and is further characterized by a hot-carrier injection rating less than the source voltage or the output voltage. In further embodiments, the switched device is sized such that it is characterized by a drain-to-source breakdown voltage greater than or substantially equal to a peak operating voltage and is further characterized by a hot-carrier injection rating less than the peak operating voltage. |
