Abstract :
This paper proposes a multi-phase voltage regulator module (VRM) based on the buck topology employing the current amplification and absorption technique. Main advantages of the proposed topology are the fast transient response and capability to keep constant the output voltage in case of severe load changes. The design, simulation and experimental results are presented to verify the proposed topology.
