The steady-state algorithm may output “high” (e.g., 1) when it decides to set a converter (or multiple converters) to an “on” state and output “l(fā)ow” (e.g., 0) when it decides to set a converter to an “off” state. The oversampling algorithm may output “high” on the second oversampling output when it decides to set the converter to an “on” state, which may include overriding a decision by the steady-state algorithm to set the converter to the “off” state or “agreeing” with a decision by the steady-state algorithm to set the converter to the “on” state. The oversampling algorithm may output “l(fā)ow” on the second oversampling output when it either decides to defer to the decision of the steady-state algorithm, or to set the converter to the “off” state (which, again, may include overriding a decision of the steady-state algorithm to set the converter to the “on” state, or “agreeing” with a decision of the steady-state algorithm to set the converter to the “off” state). The oversampling algorithm may output “high” on the first oversampling output when it decides to defer to the decision of the oversampling controller. The oversampling algorithm may output “l(fā)ow” on the first oversampling output when it decides to set the converter to the “off” state (which, again, may include overriding a decision of the steady-state algorithm to set the converter to the “on” state, or “agreeing” with a decision of the steady-state algorithm to set the converter to the “off” state).
In embodiments in which controllers 516 and 518 are both physical controllers, controller 518 may override or defer to the decision of controller 516 with a more direct circuit that either interrupts or does not interrupt the output of controller 516. However, in some embodiments, the outputs of controllers 516 and 518 may be input into a logic-gate system similar to the logic-gate system discussed above.
