Embodiment
In order to make object of the present invention, technical scheme and advantage clearly understand, below in conjunction with drawings and Examples, the present invention is further elaborated.Should be appreciated that specific embodiment described herein only in order to explain the present invention, be not intended to limit the present invention.
Shown in Fig. 1, implement by the present invention included by LDO hardware calibration hardware circuit.Mainly comprise LDO, LDO hardware Trimming module and storage unit flash.The function of each circuit unit is as follows:
LDO: after meeting supply voltage VDD, the trimming value sent according to LDO hardware Trimming module produces the LDO output voltage LDO_VDD for Flash.
LDO hardware Trimming module: read the LDO key, the LDOtrimming value that are stored in Flash, provide LDOTrimming value to LDO, thus change LDO_VDD.
Storage unit Flash: the LDOtrimming value corresponding to center voltage be used for depositing LDO key, making LDO_VDD equal Flash normally to work.
