Abstract

In datacenter, a single-stage conversion from 12-V VIN to point-of-load PoL is favorable. Hybrid converters with 2:1 pre-stage switch-capacitor (SC), such as Double-Step-Down (DSD) [1] and flying capacitor CF -Cross-Connected (CCC) [2], have higher power density and efficiency than the conventional buck. Additionally, these hybrid converters fits the 12V-to-PoL applications better than those works with more complex SC networks. Meanwhile, to conduct a large load current ILOAD, a multiple-phase MP converter may be mandatory. In this work, we propose CCC-based MP hybrid converter, evolving from the 2-phase (2P) CCC as shown in Fig. 1. The 2P CCC has two CFS (CFA, CFB), two inductors LA, LB, two VIN -stress switches MA2, MB2, four VIN/2-stress switches MA1, MA4, MB1, MB4. We split the VIN-stress switches into two VIN/2-stress, e.g. MA2 befomes MA2' and MA3'. The nodes between the split switches VDCA, VDCB are DC nodes =VIN/2. Then, we connect the DC nodes as VDC, and now the 2P converter has two symmetric sub-converters. Fig. 1 shows that with the same total power switch area, the simulated power conversion efficiency PCE is almost the same before and after the M2 split. This decouples the two phases of the original CCC, and we can extend the number of phases N., Meanwhile, it inherits most CCC's benefits, such as higher efficiency and power density than the MP buck, and fast transient response than DSD [2]. Its sub-converter shares a similar topology to [3], but removes DC capacitor.
