9 to 5V test (a bad but interesting example)
the control does not work quite as i planned but i got it to work a bit differently (but as so there's no credit it won't fail at certain condition)
(the predecessor) constant load/drive test
the pwm must be set to predict to mach it's effect on input – output voltage + output current draw and the change to the all of previous - - is possible but may complicate the control and add significant power draw . . . it'd also slow down the simulation .. .. .. but i will likely at some point run such . . .
right now buying any available switching controller is a better option

555-s based SMPS test
as is ...
... in practice it requires a sharper or more discrete response for larger errors -- this one could do for relatively steady load -- a bad point here is that increasing the controls' sophistication impacts either on efficiency at light loads - - - or retail tech. such as in SMPS controllers where the dev. of such is expensive and won't pay off for prototype solutions . . .
+ an update to the schematic in the prev. post
no pwm just switching test

SMPS experimental test
MC33063 -- 9V to 5V
Custom -- 9V to 5V with the uni-polar or basically the ON-OFF control
. . . the uni-polar to bi-polar PWM control signal formation block (essential tests)
!! update !!
Random feedback circuitry . . . is "doable" test ::
The bi-polar control circuit -- occasionally skips to 800kHz mode::
With modified MOS-Fet drive stage -- without feedback stays at 166kHz
