The purpose of this paper is to present a novel trajectory prediction method for proximate time-optimal digital control DC-DC converters. The control method provides pre-estimations of the duty ratio in the next several switching cycles, so as to compensate the computational time delay of the control loop and increase the control loop bandwidth, thereby improving the response speed. The experiment results show that the fastest transient response time of the digital DC-DC with the proposed prediction is about 8/μs when the load current changes from 0.6 to 0.1A.
