In the design of the state-of-the-art electronic products, power management circuits play a very important role for the enhancement of overall system efficiency. Switched mode DC-DC converter is an increasingly popular power management circuit due to its superior power conversion efficiency. This thesis introduces two efficiency optimization techniques for switched mode power electronic circuits. One is dead-time optimization. This technique can automatically adjust the dead-time on-the-fly according to the circuit operating conditions. Second, an energy conservation based high-efficiency dimmable multi-channel LED driver is discussed. An auxiliary power switched is use to allow free wheeling of the inductor current during the load disconnect period. The sequential burst mode PWM current sharing scheme with dimming capability can effectively reduce design complexity and cost. The proposed LED driver provides a practical solution for the realization of LED BLU in the flat panel TVs with local dimming capability according to the video content.
