This application runs a Boost converter to output a regulated voltage at 5VDC through two selectable embedded loads.

A Voltage Mode control loop is applied to this Boost plant presuming a 2.5VDC input voltage.
Such input is obtained by halving the 5V provided by USBPD (or alternative user DC supply), through a Buck converter.
Please, note that this Buck converter is used with constant duty cycle (no control loop).

It's running both a buck and a boost converter. The example is for the boost portion of this. There are other examples for the buck converter.
