Hardware: Teensy 3.6
I am trying to build a custom switch-mode power supply that approximates a variable voltage power source with no ripple (as best as I can). To achieve this, a higher PWM frequency helps reduce the requirements of the analog components. I am aware of the diminishing returns the higher you go but I want to get the most out of this board. From the PWM https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_pulse.html page I found for the teensy 3.6 can produce a PWM frequency of 915.527 Hz at that resolution.
My question would be: How can I increase this frequency?
Own ideas:
1: Overclock the teensy to 240mhz in order to hopefully double this frequency
issue/question: I am not sure whether this affects the timers in the teensy
2: Set the clockdivider value for the timers to a lower number
issue/question: I am not even sure whether this is possible
Edit: Not linear power supply. Variable voltage switch-mode power supply
