  • Abstract
    This paper analyzes the losses of a stepping inductor converter in the presence of load transients. Stepping inductor converter is a buck VRM topology which only employs a single phase. Stepping inductor converter is very effective in dealing with fast transient and at the same time it can give better steady state efficiency. Occurrences of transient load current changes are measured in a PC and data are used for the comparison to evaluate the real world performance of the stepping inductor converter and the multiphase interleaved buck converter.
