Fig. 1 is PWM/PFM control circuit system 100 circuit diagram in one embodiment among the present invention.Said PWM/PFM control circuit system comprises power-switching circuit 110, feedback circuit 120, error amplifier EA, PWM comparator com, PFM generator PFM, logic control element Control Logic, drive circuit Driver, time difference generation unit 130, time difference amplifying unit TA and oscillator OSC.
Said power-switching circuit 110 converts an input voltage VIN to an output voltage VO.In this embodiment; It is the buck DC-DC voltage conversion circuit; It comprises output transistor MPX and the MNX that is connected between input voltage VIN and the ground; Their grid links to each other with said drive circuit, and the intermediate node of output transistor MPX and MNX is through inductance L 1 and capacitor C 0 ground connection, and the voltage of the intermediate node of inductance L 1 and capacitor C 0 is as output voltage VO.
The said feedback circuit 120 said output voltage VO of sampling also form to reflect the feedback voltage of said output voltage, and it is made up of with R2 the resistance R 1 that is connected between output voltage VO and the ground.Said oscillator OSC generates and output triangular wave oscillation signal Ramp.The error that said error amplifier EA amplifies a reference voltage V REF and feedback voltage obtains the error amplifying voltage.Said PWM comparator is used for more said triangular wave oscillation signal and said error amplifying voltage to export the pwm control signal of corresponding pulsewidth.Said PFM generator is used for generating based on said pwm control signal the PFM control signal T_min of fixed pulse width, and the pulsewidth of said PFM control signal is minimum conducting width.Output pwm control signal and control said power-switching circuit 110 via said drive circuit when said logic control element is used for pulsewidth at pwm control signal greater than the PFM control signal is in the pulsewidth of pwm control signal output PFM control signal and control said power-switching circuit 110 via said drive circuit during less than the PFM control signal.
Said time difference generation unit 130 is used for producing during greater than the pulsewidth of pwm control signal in the pulsewidth of PFM control signal the time difference signal T_dif of difference of pulsewidth of pulsewidth and the pwm control signal of reflection PFM control signal.In this embodiment; Said time difference generation unit 130 comprises inverter INV0 and NOR gate NOR2; Said PFM control signal inserts the input of said NOR gate NOR2 through said inverter IVN0; Said pwm control signal inserts another input of said NOR gate NOR2, and said NOR gate NOR2 exports said time difference signal.

Fig. 3 is the circuit diagram of first embodiment of said time difference amplifying unit.Said time difference amplifying unit comprises charging current source I1, charging control switch S1, discharging current source I2, discharge control switch S2, capacitor C 1 and comparator com1, discharge control logic.
Said charging current source I1 charges to capacitor C 1 via said charging control switch S1; The control end of said charging control switch S1 receives the control of time difference signal T_dif; Connecting said charging control switch S1 at the effectual time (the high level period among Fig. 2) of said time difference signal T_dif makes said charging current source I1 charge to said capacitor C 1; The invalid period (the low level period among Fig. 2) at said time difference signal T_dif turn-offs, and stops the charging to capacitor C 1.
Said discharging current source I2 discharges to said capacitor C 1 via said discharge control switch S2; The control end of said discharge control switch S2 is by the control of discharge control logic; Said discharge control logic output time expand signal T_amp; As shown in Figure 2, it is the time that time difference amplifying signal T_stop prolongs with respect to time difference signal T_dif, and said discharge control logic is when said time difference signal T_dif amplifying signal T_stop of the invalid and said time difference effective (high level among Fig. 2); Control said discharge control switch S2 and connect, turn-off otherwise control said discharge control switch S2.
Said comparator com1 is used for the voltage VC1 of said capacitor C 1 and reference voltage V R1 are compared; Export effective time difference amplifying signal T_stop at the voltage VC1 of said capacitor C 1 during greater than said reference voltage V R1, otherwise export invalid time difference amplifying signal T_stop.

In the present embodiment, the detailed process that the time of time difference signal T_dif is amplified is following.When the T_dif signal is high level (high level is for effective), charging control switch S1 conducting, current source I1 is to capacitor C 1 charging; The control signal T_amp of simultaneously said discharge control logic output is a low level, and discharge control unit S2 turn-offs, and the voltage VC1 of capacitor C 1 increases gradually; When if the voltage VC1 of capacitor C 1 is not charged to greater than said reference voltage V R1; During ensuing next cycle, T_dif can continue the charging to C1 during for high level, up to VC1 greater than VR1.Then, when T_dif is low level since this moment capacitor C 1 the voltage of voltage VC1 greater than reference voltage V R1; So T_stop is a high level, T_amp also becomes high level, discharge control switch S2 conducting; Capacitor C 1 is by discharging current source I2 discharge, and it is lower slightly when some than reference voltage V R1 to be discharged up to the voltage VC1 of capacitor C 1, and T_stop becomes low level; T_amp also becomes low level, and discharge control switch S2 turn-offs.When ensuing T_dif is high level once more, charging control switch S1 conducting, capacitor C 1 begins charging from the voltage of VR1 no better than; When T_dif became low level, charging finished, and C1 begins discharge then; When C1 voltage was discharged to VR1, discharge finished.So working as T_dif is in the time period of high level, charging current source I1 charges to capacitor C 1, when the T_dif step-down, is carved into the T_stop step-down in the time period between the moment, and discharging current source I2 discharges to capacitor C 1.The change in voltage amplitude of electric capacity charging equals the capacitor discharge voltage amplitude, equals VP-VR1, and wherein VP is the crest voltage that capacitor C 1 charging reaches, and VR1 is the valley point voltage of discharge, as among Fig. 2 about the mark of voltage VC1.
According to the capacitor charge and discharge characteristic, discharging and recharging charge conservation can know: I1.Ta=(VP-VR1) .C1=I2.Tb.Like this through setting the ratio of I1 and I2, set charging interval Ta and discharge time Tb ratio.Design I 1/I2=8 for example, Tb=8.Ta then, and Tc=Ta+Tb=9.Ta, Tc is effective duration of time difference amplifying signal T_stop.Therefore can obtain the time of an amplification.
