[specific embodiment]
Integrated low voltage difference (Integrated Low Dropout, ILDO) voltage-stablizer may be that many integrated circuits solve The important component of scheme.Ideally, ILDO voltage-stablizer can be keep low fluctuation and provide while low noise can be with Close to the controllable output-voltage levels of mains voltage level.The load circuit that ILDO voltage-stablizer can be coupled according to its output end The variation of impedance adjusts its output, so that providing in output end constant or close to constant power, voltage or electric current.But It is that typical ILDO voltage-stablizer needs the variation of prior notice loading condition, instruction load impedance can occur in particular point in time Variation is adjusted with providing suitable output.When load circuit needs the electric current that quickly adjustment ILDO voltage-stablizer provides, voltage or function When rate, the ILDO voltage-stablizer with prior notice system possibly can not provide sufficient control.In addition, if prior notice signal It loses or postpones, ILDO voltage-stablizer possibly can not provide correct output voltage, electric current or power level, and load circuit can The voltage that can be received, electric current or power level are insufficient or excessively high.When typical ILDO voltage-stablizer would generally be synchronized to one In the clock period, this may introduce unnecessary delay when changing provided output voltage or electric current, because of ILDO voltage-stablizer Its output voltage is being adjusted, clock edge may be had to wait for before electric current or power level.The present invention describes to have different The ILDO voltage-stablizer of control system is walked, it can be quickly according to the variation of the output of low-dropout regulator (for example, load circuit hinders Anti- variation) adjustment low-dropout regulator output.
Before control system of the invention is discussed, depositing for parasitics in circuit relevant to ILDO voltage-stablizer will be discussed ?.Fig. 1 shows the circuit board 100 including package parts 110 and package outside part 140.Package parts 110 may include coupling To integrated low voltage difference (ILDO) voltage-stablizer 120 of load circuit 130.ILDO voltage-stablizer 120 can output it be supplied to it is negative Carry circuit 130.Package outside part 140 can have parasitic inductance, parasitic capacitance and/or dead resistance and external power supply management collection At circuit (Power Management Integrated Circuit, PMIC).For example, encapsulation dispatch from foreign news agency sensor may be in inductance There is parasitic capacitance between the winding turns of device.In another example, encapsulation external capacitive body may have at various frequencies and post Raw resistance.It is posted in addition, package parts 110 and encapsulation can have with the coupling between encapsulation component by similar mechanism Raw inductance, parasitic capacitance and/or dead resistance.As described herein any or whole ghost effect can change over time.Separately Outside, the impedance of load circuit 130 can change over time.For example, carrying out self coupling if load circuit 130 is coupled to another circuit The reflected umpedance of conjunction can change over time, to change the impedance for the load circuit 130 seen by ILDO voltage-stablizer 120.Another In one example, the impedance 130 of load circuit can change due to the time-varying ghost effect in load circuit 130.In some realities It applies in example, ILDO voltage-stablizer 120 can be designed to provide power, electricity to load circuit 130 in a manner of mitigating ghost effect The variation of pressure or electric current output and load impedance.It should be understood that package outside part 140 shown in Fig. 1 is only example, And package outside part in some embodiments, can not used.In some embodiments, in addition to ILDO voltage-stablizer 120 and negative It carries except circuit 130, does not use on piece package parts.
Load circuit 130 can be from ILDO voltage-stablizer 120 and receive power, any circuit of current or voltage.Due to being permitted Multifactor, the impedance of load circuit 130 can change with the time, the variation for the size that the factor such as loads or parasitism The variation of phenomenon.Therefore, as will be described in further detail below, in some embodiments, ILDO voltage-stablizer 120 can fit Answer the impedance variations of load circuit and the ghost effect of package parts 110 and the outer component 140 of encapsulation.
Fig. 2A shows the embodiment of ILDO voltage-stablizer 200.ILDO voltage-stablizer 200 may include control circuit 260 and open Powered-down road 250.Control circuit 260 can receive feedback signal VFB and reference signal VREF1 at comparator 210.VFB can be with It is to indicate the signal of the voltage level at the output of ILDO voltage-stablizer 200 (that is, VFB can reflect the impedance of load circuit Variation).For example, in some embodiments, VFB can be the output voltage of ILDO voltage-stablizer 200.In other embodiments, VFB The ratio that can be the output voltage of ILDO voltage-stablizer 200 indicates.In other embodiments, it is supplied to the feedback of comparator 210 Signal can indicate the electric current or power that are supplied to load circuit.VREF1 can be reference voltage, can be set in advance in and is In the memory of system, established by the user setting of system, or by any suitable means.In other embodiments, it refers to Signal can be reference current or power.Comparator 210 may compare feedback signal and reference signal and export two signals of instruction Between state change COMP signal.For example, if VFB is initially less than VREF1 and then becomes to be above VREF1, comparator 210 can be generated the first COMP signal that instruction VFB state changes.Optionally, if VFB is initially higher than VREF1 and then becomes Lower than VREF1, then the 2nd COMP signal can be generated in comparator 210, and the 2nd COMP signal designation and the first COMP signal are not The change of same VFB state.For example, the first COMP signal can be with first shape, the first duration and/or the first width The pulse of degree, and the 2nd COMP signal can be with the second shape, the pulse of the second duration and/or the second amplitude.? In some embodiments, the first COMP signal and the 2nd COMP signal can be different and can different shapes with VFB relative to VREF1 State changes (for example, VFB, which drops to or VFB lower than VREF1, rises to VREF1 or more).Although being compared here using voltage as showing Example, it is to be understood that comparison other can be electric current or power in specific implementation.Variation of the VFB relative to the level of VREF1 (for example, VFB, which drops to or VFB lower than VREF1, rises to VREF1 or more) is determined for being provided by ILDO voltage-stablizer 200 To the variation of the level of the output voltage of load circuit.Therefore, its adjustable output voltage of ILDO voltage-stablizer 200 is to compensate Level change of the VFB relative to VREF1.
The output COMP of comparator 210 can be sent to pulse generator 220.The COMP of output can make pulse produce Raw device 220 generates the pulse that can be sent to loop control unit 230.Pulse generator 220 can be suitable for generating and indicate The signal changed by the state that comparator 210 detects.In some embodiments, if the output COMP of comparator 210 is indicated It is higher than VREF1 that VFB, which has changed state, then the pulse of the first kind can be generated in pulse generator 220, if comparator It is lower than VREF1 that 210 output COMP instruction VFB, which has changed state, and the arteries and veins of Second Type can be generated in pulse generator 220 Punching.In some embodiments, pulse generator 220 can generate phase for any state change detected by comparator 210 Same pulse.In such embodiments, comparator 210 can be connected to loop control unit 230 and pulse generator simultaneously 220, so that when loop control unit 230 receives pulse from pulse generator 220, it, which can receive, is generated by comparator 210 COMP signal is to indicate variation of the VFB relative to the level of VREF1 (that is, VFB becomes to be above VREF1, alternatively, VFB becomes low In VREF1).It should be understood that in some embodiments, pulse generator 220, the output of comparator 210 can not used It can be for delivery to loop control unit 230.In such embodiments, it such as will be described in further detail below, the level of COMP signal It can indicate level of the VFB relative to VREF1, and loop control unit 230 is according to the change of the state of the COMP signal, and lead to It crosses using the level of the COMP signal and determines the quantity of enabled or forbidden energy switch in switching circuit 250.
Loop control unit 230 can receive signal PULSE from pulse generator 220 and/or from comparator 210 Signal COMP, and determine the quantity of enabled or forbidden energy switch in switching circuit 250.In loop control unit 230 only from pulse Generator 220 receives in some embodiments of signal PULSE, and signal PULSE can correspond to the shape of the COMP of the output of comparator 210 State.When COMP is in the first level, PULSE can correspond to the first pulse shape, the first amplitude and/or the first duration, when COMP is in second electrical level, and PULSE can correspond to the second pulse shape, the second amplitude and/or the second duration.It is controlled in circuit Device processed receives in some embodiments of both signal PULSE and COMP, and the level regardless of COMP, PULSE can be phase Same pulse shape, and loop control unit 230 can adjust switching circuit based on the level of COMP when receiving signal PULSE The quantity of enabled switch in 250.COMP is received in loop control unit 230 in some embodiments of PULSE, works as signal Enabled number of switches when COMP changes level, in the adjustable switching circuit 250 of loop control unit 230.Switching circuit 250 In enabled switch quantity can correspond to ILDO voltage-stablizer 200 output voltage VO UT level.For example, if circuit is controlled Device 230 processed receives feedback voltage V FB relative to the lower instruction of VREF1, then loop control unit 230 can produce signal to increase The quantity of the switch enabled in switching circuit 250, to increase the output voltage of ILDO voltage-stablizer 200.In such an example, If 5 switches are currently enabled in switching circuit 250, and loop control unit 230 receive and indicate VFB relative to VREF1 be it is low, then loop control unit 230 can produce signal to enable in switching circuit 250 the 6th switch.Alternatively, circuit is controlled Device 230 processed can receive the instruction of the size about the difference between instruction VFB and VREF1, and can be in switching circuit 250 Enable the switch of proportional quantity.In another example, if loop control unit 230 receives indication feedback voltage VFB phase When for VREF1 higher, loop control unit 230 can produce signal with the extra switch in forbidden energy switching circuit 250, to reduce The output voltage of ILDO voltage-stablizer 200.In fig. 2, N number of switch is shown in switching circuit 250, wherein N is greater than 1 Any positive integer.Loop control unit 230 can be the quantity for the switch being adapted to determine that in switching circuit 250 and generate signal with Enable any controller of these switches, such as field programmable gate array (FPGA), microprocessor or hardware logic electric circuit.
Signal from loop control unit 230 can pass through optional buffer circuit before reaching switching circuit 250 240.Buffer circuit 240 may include N number of buffer amplifier, and each buffer amplifier is connected to switch from loop control unit 230 Circuit 250 to inductive switch.Therefore, each buffer amplifier of buffer circuit 240 can be in loop control unit 230 and switch electricity Individual signal path is provided between each switch on road 250.Buffer circuit 240 is adjustable by the defeated of loop control unit 230 The impedance level seen out with the input of switching circuit 250, with the switch of driving switch circuit 250.
Switching circuit 250 may include the N number of switch controlled by loop control unit 230, and N number of switch is for providing height Conducting path between the output VOUT of reference voltage VIN and ILDO voltage-stablizer 200.High reference voltage VIN can be by any Known voltage source provides, such as power supply or battery.As shown in Figure 1, the output VOUT of ILDO voltage-stablizer 200 may be coupled to load Circuit.
Fig. 2 B shows the embodiment of buffer circuit 240 and switching circuit 250.In this example, N is equal to 3, but N can be used It is any be greater than or equal to 2 positive integer.Loop control unit 230 provides three output signals, each is in switching circuit 250 Each switch.Output signal from loop control unit 230 the switch for being connected to switching circuit 250 control terminal (for example, Grid) it before can be by the buffer amplifier in buffer circuit 240.Switch in switching circuit 250 can be connected in parallel, and make (turn on) more Multi- Switch must be connected to generate higher output voltage or electric current at VOUT, and turn off (turn off) More switches to generate lower output voltage or electric current in VOUT.It should be understood that shown in buffer amplifier and The configuration of switch connection is only an example, the switch for allowing to come using loop control unit 230 in control switch circuit 250 Any suitable embodiment can be implemented in the present invention.
In some embodiments, it may be desired to provide multiple reference voltages so that loop control unit it is adjustable with it is multiple The relevant output voltage of reference voltage.Such embodiment can permit output voltage and be maintained at true by multiple reference voltage levels Within the scope of fixed one or in multiple ranges.Fig. 3 is shown to be implemented including another of the first branch 330 and the second branch 340 The ILDO voltage-stablizer 300 of example.Second branch 340 of ILDO voltage-stablizer 300 may include that the second comparator 310 and the second pulse produce Raw device 320.Second comparator 310 can receive the feedback voltage V FB and the second reference voltage VREF2 as input signal. VREF2 and VREF1 is same or different reference voltage.Comparator 310 may compare VFB and VREF2, and pass through signal COMP2 indicates the state change between two signals.For example, if VFB is initially less than VREF2 and then becomes to be above VREF2, then the signal COMP2 of instruction state change can be generated in comparator 310.Alternatively, if VFB is initially higher than VREF2 simultaneously And then getting lower than VREF2, then comparator 310 can be generated the signal COMP2 of instruction state change (VFB be from lower than VREF2 It is changed to above COMP2 and VFB caused by VREF2 and becomes less than COMP2 caused by VREF2 from VREF2 is higher than and may have Different duration, amplitude etc.).The output COMP2 of comparator 310 can reach pulse generator 320 or loop control unit 230。
The state change for being detected and being exported by comparator 310 can make pulse generator 320 generate pulse PULSE2, should Pulse PULSE2 can be sent to loop control unit 230.Pulse generator 320, which can be to be suitable for generating, indicates comparator 310 Any circuit for the signal that detected state changes.In some embodiments, if comparator 310 detects VFB Change state is higher than VREF2, then the pulse of the first kind can be generated in pulse generator 320, and if comparator 310 is examined Measuring VFB to change state is lower than VREF2, then the pulse of Second Type can be generated in pulse generator 320.In some embodiments In, pulse generator 320 can periodically generate pulse or signal PULSE2, except non-comparator 310 detect VFB relative to The state of VREF2 changes.In some embodiments, pulse generator 320 can be for the state detected by comparator 310 Any change generates identical pulse.It should be appreciated that in some embodiments, pulse generator 320 can not used, and compare Output COMP2 compared with device 310 can be for delivery to loop control unit 230.In some embodiments, pulse generator can be used 320, and the output COMP2 of comparator 310 can also be for delivery to loop control unit 230.In such embodiments, if inspection It measures two states to change, then the output combination pulse generator 220 of comparator 210 and 310 can be used in loop control unit 230 Output with 320 determines the priority of controller.For example, if VFB begins lower than VREF1 and VREF2, but then rapidly on Rise with more than VREF1 and VREF2, in this example, VREF2 > VREF1, loop control unit 230 can determine it should handle by The event that second branch 340 generates, i.e. event on the second comparator 310 and the second pulse generator 320, because being based on two Relationship between reference voltage, the event handled in the second branch 340 will inherently meet the event in the first branch 330.
Although showing Liang Ge branch 330 and 340 in Fig. 3, each branch is as reception instruction output voltage or reference The signal chains of the signal of voltage, and loop control unit 230 is transmitted to for generating event detection signal, it is to be appreciated that this hair It is bright to can use any number of branch.The signal for indicating the output voltage can be to have scaling with the output voltage Or voltage or current signal without scaling.It is, for example, possible to use tool, there are three three branches of reference voltage, or Tool can be used in person, and there are four four branches of reference voltage.In addition, if using suitable comparator, single branch can be with Use multiple reference voltages.It should be understood that in some embodiments, single comparator can be with two reference voltages VREF1 is used together with VREF2, without the use of two comparators.The output of comparator can be instruction VFB and join compared to two Tri-state (tristate) signal or comparator for examining the level of voltage can have two outputs, and each output indicates VFB phase Compared with the level of one of them in two references.
There are two the ILDO voltage-stablizers 300 of branch can be used for monitoring output voltage VO UT and hold it in predetermined threshold for tool It is interior.For example, VREF1 can be set to lower voltage limit, and VREF2 can be set to upper limit voltage.If regulation is being The VOUT that should be between VREF1 and VREF2 during system operation increases due to various ghost effects or load effect, so that VFB is more than upper limit voltage VREF2, then comparator 310 is by trigger event, and sends the change of instruction state to loop control unit 230 and/or pulse generator 320.If comparator 310 sends signal to pulse generator 320, pulse generator 320 will It subsequently generates and sends the pulse for corresponding to the change of state of the comparator to the loop control unit 230.Loop control unit 230 By the quantity of the subsequent switch for reducing and being connected in switching circuit 250 to reduce output voltage VO UT.The quantity of deactivated switch can To be fixed amount (for example, loop control unit is directed to one additional switch of each event forbidden energy), or can be proportional Amount (for example, loop control unit forbidden energy and VOUT compared to the difference of reference voltage (that is, amount VOUT bigger than reference voltage) at The multiple switch of ratio).If VOUT declines due to various ghost effects or load effect, so that VFB rations the power supply under dropping to VREF1 is pressed hereinafter, then comparator 210 is indicated by trigger event, and to loop control unit 230 and/or the transmission of pulse generator 220 The signal that state changes.If comparator 210 sends signal to pulse generator 220, pulse generator 220 will then be generated The pulse of state change corresponding to comparator 210 simultaneously sends it to loop control unit 230.Loop control unit 230 will be subsequent Increase the quantity of the switch of the conducting in switching circuit 250 to increase output voltage VO UT.The quantity of switch switched on can be with It is fixed amount (for example, loop control unit is that each event enables an additional switch), or can be proportional amount (for example, loop control unit forbidden energy is proportional compared to the difference of reference voltage (that is, amount VOUT smaller than reference voltage) to VOUT Multiple switch).
In some embodiments, it may be desired to control output voltage relative to time reference.If output voltage is kept It is longer than the reference time in the time of a fixed level, then may needs to adjust output-voltage levels to provide to output voltage The accurate control of level.Such as, if it is desired to output-voltage levels be 0.70V, and output-voltage levels are maintained at 0.69V Time be longer than scheduled time quantum, even if then it may be desirable to increase the obtained level of output-voltage levels be higher than 0.70V, this Sample for a period of time in average output voltage close to 0.70V.
Fig. 4 shows single branch ILDO voltage-stablizer 400 that circuit 410 is checked including timer.Timer checks circuit 410 It may include time comparison circuitry and running timer.In some embodiments, running timer can check electricity with timer Road 410 separates, and timer checks that circuit 410 can receive timing signal from running timer.When comparator 210 is based on instead The comparatively detection of feedthrough voltage VFB and reference voltage VREF1 are to event (that is, feedback voltage V FB and reference voltage VREF1 Relative value changes, for example, VFB is changed to above VREF1 or VFB and becomes less than from higher than VREF1 from lower than VREF1 When VREF1), (wherein, comparator 210 can check circuit 410 and pulse generator 220 and loop control unit 230 to timer Pulse generator 220 and loop control unit 230 at least select one) send instruction event signal.Timer checks circuit 410 The value and threshold time T1 of the running timer when receiving from the event of comparator 210 can be compared, if operation meter When device value be greater than threshold time T1, then it represents that output voltage VO UT is maintained at the overlong time of single undesirable level, then Timer checks that circuit 410 can trigger the quantity that loop control unit 230 correspondingly adjusts the switch of conducting in switching circuit 250 (for example, when comparator true 210 detects that feedback voltage V FB becomes higher than reference voltage VREF1 from lower than reference voltage VREF1, And the value of running timer is greater than threshold time T1, then timer checks that circuit 410 can trigger loop control unit 230 and correspondingly drop The quantity of the switch of conducting in low switch circuit 250;On the contrary, when comparator true 210 detects feedback voltage V FB from than reference Voltage VREF1 high becomes lower than reference voltage VREF1, and the value of running timer is greater than threshold time T1, then timer inspection Circuit 410 can trigger the quantity that loop control unit 230 correspondingly increases the switch of conducting in switching circuit 250;).In this reality It applies in example, whenever switching circuit 250 adjusts its internal conducting according to the value of running timer and the comparison result of threshold time T1 Switch quantity after, or after timer checks that circuit 410 compares value and the threshold time T1 of running timer, timing Device checks that the running timer in circuit 410 can be reset;Or when changing the comparison result of comparison circuit, timing Device checks that the running timer in circuit 410 can be reset.Running timer can be any suitable timing circuit, such as shake Swing device, clock input or counter.Threshold time can be preset time with the movement of regulating loop controller 230.In addition, meter When device check circuit 410 can with or optionally from comparator 210 or directly receive feedback electricity from the input of ILDO voltage-stablizer 400 Press VFB.Therefore, if the time that timer checks that circuit 410 detects that VFB is in constant unexpected level is more than threshold value T1, then timer checks that circuit 410 can trigger the switch for the conducting that loop control unit 230 correspondingly adjusts in switching circuit 250 Quantity, even if comparator do not cause event (for example, if timer check circuit 410 detect that VFB is in constant mistake The time of low voltage level is more than T1, then can trigger loop control unit 230 and correspondingly increase the conducting in switching circuit 250 The quantity of switch;On the contrary, if timer checks that circuit 410 detects that VFB is in the time of constant excessively high voltage level More than T1, then it can trigger the quantity that loop control unit 230 correspondingly reduces the switch of the conducting in switching circuit 250;).It is based on The control of time can be to the output voltage VO UT progress finer control for allowing system, specific practice are as follows: pass through first Using the output voltage VO UT is changed based on the voltage level of comparison, it is then based on timer control at any time again Adjust the voltage level of the output voltage VO UT.Therefore, in embodiments of the present invention, timer checks that circuit can be used for preventing Only output voltage VO UT is maintained at single undesirable level and is longer than the determining period.For example, output voltage is in a short time Slightly above or below desired output voltage is acceptable, but output voltage is maintained at this higher or lower than desired water Flat voltage level is undesirable.
Fig. 5 shows double branches ILDO voltage-stablizer 500, wherein there is timer to check circuit for each branch.Wherein, it wraps Include comparator 210, timer checks the work of circuit 410, pulse-generating circuit 220 and the first branch of loop control unit 230 Principle is identical as Fig. 4, herein without repeating.The present embodiment, which is only discussed, checks circuit 510, arteries and veins including comparator 310, timer The working principle of the second branch of generation circuit 320 and loop control unit 230 is rushed, specifically, when comparator 310 is based on feedback The comparatively detection of voltage VFB and reference voltage VREF2 are to event (that is, the phase of feedback voltage V FB and reference voltage VREF2 Change to value, for example, VFB from lower than VREF2 be changed to above VREF2 or VFB from be higher than VREF2 become less than VREF2) When, comparator can send the signal for the event that indicates to timer and check circuit 510 and pulse generator 320 and circuit control Device 230 (wherein, at least one transmission can be selected in pulse generator 320 and loop control unit 230) processed.Timer checks electricity The value of running timer when event from comparator 310 can be received by road 510 is compared with threshold time T2, such as The value of fruit running timer is greater than threshold time T2, then it represents that output voltage VO UT is maintained at the time of single undesirable level Too long, then timer checks that circuit 510 can trigger loop control unit 230 and correspondingly adjust opening for conducting in switching circuit 250 The quantity of pass is (for example, when comparator true 310 detects that feedback voltage V FB becomes comparing reference voltage from lower than reference voltage VREF2 VREF2 high, and the value of running timer is greater than threshold time T2, then timer checks that circuit 510 can trigger loop control unit 230 Accordingly decrease the quantity of the switch of the conducting in switching circuit 250;On the contrary, when comparator true 310 detects feedback voltage V FB Become lower than reference voltage VREF2 from higher than reference voltage VREF2, and the value of running timer is greater than threshold time T2, then counts When device check that circuit 510 can trigger the number that loop control unit 230 correspondingly increases the switch of conducting in switching circuit 250 Amount;).In the present embodiment, whenever switching circuit 250 is adjusted according to the value of running timer and the comparison result of threshold time T2 After the quantity of its internal switch be connected, or when timer checks that circuit 510 compares the value and threshold value of running timer Between after T2, timer checks that the running timer in circuit 510 can be reset.Running timer can be any suitable timing Mechanism, such as oscillator, clock input or counter.As described above, threshold time can be preset time with regulating loop control The movement that device 230 processed is taken.In addition, timer checks that circuit 510 can also or optionally receive feedback electricity from comparator 310 VFB is pressed, or directly receives feedback voltage V FB from the input of ILDO voltage-stablizer 500.Therefore, if timer checks circuit 510 The time for detecting that VFB is in constant unexpected level is more than threshold value T2, then timer checks that circuit 510 can trigger circuit Controller 230 correspondingly adjusts the quantity of the switch of the conducting in switching circuit 250, even if comparator does not cause event (example Such as, it if the time that timer checks that circuit 510 detects that VFB is in constant too low voltage level is more than T2, can touch Hair loop control unit 230 correspondingly increases the quantity of the switch of the conducting in switching circuit 250;On the contrary, if timer inspection The time that circuit 510 detects that VFB is in constant excessively high voltage level is more than T2, then can trigger 230 phase of loop control unit Reduce the quantity of the switch of the conducting in switching circuit 250 with answering;) however, checked in circuit in multiple timers, it can be set Multiple timers check that the movement that regulating loop controller 230 is taken is carried out at the interval of circuit.For example, if T1 is less than T2, In the case where running timer reaches T1 and VOUT is in undesirable horizontal, loop control unit 230 can be by conducting The quantity of switch is set as the first configuration.If running timer reaches the time between T1 and T2 and VOUT is in undesirable Level, then loop control unit 230 can set the second configuration for the quantity of the switch of conducting.Although being shown in FIG. 5 Two sseparated timers check circuit 410 and 510.It should be understood that two timers check that circuit can be implemented as having There is the single timer of multiple inputs and threshold value to check circuit.Although also, it should be understood that showing two points in Fig. 5 Branch.Any amount of branch can be used and timer checks circuit to provide the finer control to output voltage VO UT.
In addition, in another embodiment, there are two the ILDO voltage-stablizers 500 of branch can be used for monitoring output voltage VO UT for tool And it holds it in predetermined threshold.For example, VREF1 can be set to lower voltage limit, and VREF2 can be set to Voltage limit.If regulation should be at the VOUT between VREF1 and VREF2 due to various ghost effects or be born during system operatio It carries effect and increases, so that VFB is lower than lower voltage limit VREF1, then comparator 210 is by trigger event, and sends instruction state Change to timer and checks that circuit 410 and loop control unit 230 and pulse generator 220 (wherein, pulse generator 220 and return Road controller 230 at least selects one).Timer checks when the event from comparator 210 can be received by circuit 410 The value of running timer is compared with threshold time T1, if the value of running timer is greater than threshold time T1, then it represents that defeated Voltage VOUT is maintained at the overlong time of certain undesirable level lower than VREF1 out, then timer checks that circuit 410 can trigger Loop control unit 230 correspondingly increases the quantity of the switch of the conducting in switching circuit 250.In the present embodiment, whenever switch After circuit 250 adjusts the quantity of its internal switch be connected according to the value of running timer and the comparison result of threshold time T1, Or after timer checks that circuit 410 compares value and the threshold time T1 of running timer, timer checks circuit 410 In running timer can be reset.If regulation should be at during system operatio VOUT between VREF1 and VREF2 due to Various ghost effects or load effect and increase so that VFB is more than upper limit voltage VREF2, then comparator 310 is by trigger event, And change to the timer for sending instruction state checks circuit 510 and 320 (wherein, arteries and veins of loop control unit 230 and pulse generator It rushes generator 320 and loop control unit 230 and at least selects one).Timer checks that circuit 510 can will come from comparator 310 The value of running timer of event when being received be compared with threshold time T2, if the value of running timer is greater than threshold value Time T2, then it represents that output voltage VO UT is maintained at the overlong time of certain undesirable level greater than VREF2, then timer is examined Looking into circuit 510 can trigger the quantity that loop control unit 230 accordingly decreases the switch of conducting in switching circuit 250.In this reality It applies in example, whenever switching circuit 250 adjusts its internal conducting according to the value of running timer and the comparison result of threshold time T2 Switch quantity after, or after timer checks that circuit 510 compares value and the threshold time T2 of running timer, meter When device check circuit 510 in running timer can be reset.In the specific implementation, threshold time T1 and T2 can be identical or not Together.
