Abstract
A voltage converter system is disclosed. The system has a control unit, a multiphase converter, and a measuring unit. The control unit is configured to generate one or more converter parameter adjustments from a feedback signal. The multiphase converter is configured to selectively generate an output signal at a selected voltage and to adjust one or more converter parameters using the one or more converter parameter adjustments to mitigate generation of spurs in the output signal. The measuring unit is configured to measure the output signal and generate the feedback signal from the output signal.
