LCB - Linear Current Booster -- any reference designs ?

Could some electronics guru please clarify the difference between a linear current booster (LCB) and a buck converter ? Also is there any reference design around ? Googling the topic has not been too helpful.

I don't think I've even heard the term. Where'd you hear it, and what's it supposed to do?

I was curious so I googled it, it does seem that it is basically a buck converter, used to step down the voltage from solar cells so that when running a pump with solar and the sun is low it'll still have enough current to run the pump slow in stead of stalling

I love to cook with wine.     Sometimes I even put it in the food.
