Description

High-precision low-dropout linear regulator with quick transient response
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of power management, and relates to a design of a low dropout regulator, which can be used for supplying power to a circuit inside a chip.
Background
Low Dropout Regulator (Low Dropout Regulator-LDO) has the characteristics of Low cost, Low noise, simple structure, strong input noise rejection, Low power consumption, etc., and compared with a switching Regulator, the LDO becomes another important power management chip, and is widely applied to consumer electronics scenes such as portable devices. Compared with a common voltage reference, the LDO has a strong loading capability, and fig. 1 shows a conventional LDO structure with a large off-chip capacitor, which mainly comprises an Error Amplifier (EA), a power tube (MP), a feedback network, and an output filter capacitor.
The performance index of the LDO mainly includes static characteristics and dynamic characteristics. The static characteristics of the LDO mainly include a load regulation rate and a linear regulation rate, which measure the operating accuracy of the LDO, and the larger loop gain of the LDO as a feedback system usually represents higher accuracy. The LDO is used as a power supply module, and its load and linear transient performance, especially the load transient performance, are the most important dynamic characteristics.
In order to improve the transient performance of the LDO, whether to add off-chip capacitors is an important condition besides the limitation of the bandwidth and slew rate of the negative feedback loop; the off-chip load large capacitor is used as a temporary 'charge bank', and can provide or store charges during the transient period, so that the fluctuation of the output voltage is reduced; however, in terms of loop stability, the low frequency output pole caused by the off-chip filter capacitor often conflicts with the pole of the Error Amplifier (EA) output, resulting in instability of the feedback loop.
In order to solve the problem of stability of a negative feedback loop of an off-chip large capacitor LDO, the conventional off-chip large capacitor LDO is usually compensated by using a load capacitor or an extra ESR (equivalent series resistance) resistor. But the resistance value of the ESR resistor fluctuates along with the external environment; in addition, during a transient period, a current flows through the ESR, which causes a large output voltage fluctuation, and conversely, deteriorates transient performance.

The error amplifier provided by the invention comprises three parts, namely an input pair unit, a transconductance enhancement structure and a folding sleeve output stage, wherein in the input pair unit of the error amplifier, an input pair transistor is a second PMOS transistor M4And a third PMOS transistor M5Second PMOS transistor M4And thirdPMOS tube M5The load of (1) is composed of a dynamically biased folded Voltage Follower (FVF structure), and the FVF structure comprises a first NMOS tube M1The first PMOS transistor M3The fifth PMOS transistor M7And a second NMOS transistor M2A second PMOS transistor M4And the fourth PMOS transistor M6Compared with the traditional common differential structure, the FVF structure can not only overcome the problem that the slew rate of EA is limited by a tail current source, but also improve the transconductance of input geminate transistors; in addition, tail tube (i.e. fifth PMOS tube M) of FVF structure is used7And a sixth PMOS transistor M8) Equivalently sampling a second PMOS tube M of the input pair tubes4And a third PMOS transistor M5The characteristics of AC (alternating current) information, and the seventh PMOS tube M is reused9And eighth PMOS transistor M10Carrying out mirror image and simultaneously utilizing a third NMOS tube M11And the fourth NMOS tube M12The fifth NMOS transistor M13And a sixth NMOS transistor M14The negative resistance of the latch structure (i.e. the equivalent AC resistance with opposite phase to the common resistance due to the positive feedback) amplifies the mirrored AC current and then passes through the seventh NMOS transistor M15And an eighth NMOS transistor M16Mirror these two AC currents with the common input pair transistor second PMOS transistor M4And a third PMOS transistor M5The AC currents are superimposed and summed together at the output node of the EA, thereby achieving the transconductance enhancement effect.
It is noted that all nodes of the transconductance enhancement path are low-impedance nodes, and the third NMOS transistor M is effectively adjusted11And the fourth NMOS tube M12The fifth NMOS transistor M13And a sixth NMOS transistor M14And a seventh NMOS transistor M15And the eighth NMOS transistor M16The values of a and β of the transistor sizes are equal, so that a transconductance enhancement effect and a frequency band of a parasitic pole can be balanced, and the EA is represented as a transconductance amplifier (OTA) with high transconductance and high bandwidth, and the transconductance and the gain of the EA can be simply expressed as:

let the third NMOS transistor M11And a sixth NMOS transistor M14The size alpha of the NMOS transistor is larger than that of the fourth NMOS transistor M12And a fifth NMOS transistor M13The dimension beta ensures that the lacth structure as a whole still has positive resistance (namely, the third NMOS tube M)11And a sixth NMOS transistor M14The fourth NMOS transistor M is a positive resistor12And a fifth NMOS transistor M13Exhibiting negative resistance). Specific values of a and β are considered as follows, the closer β is to a, and VB in fig. 31Node and VB2The higher the AC impedance of the node, and thus the greater the magnitude of the transconductance enhancement, but now at VB for the signal path1Node and VB2The bandwidth of two nodes is smaller, so that the transconductance enhancement and the bandwidth compromise need to be considered. Let the seventh NMOS transistor M15And an eighth NMOS transistor M16Has a size of k, and VB if a and β are smaller compared to the value of k1Node and VB2The lower the bandwidth (i.e., the frequency of the equivalent pole) at the node is, the lower k may be, alpha + β or another ratio, and since the parasitic pole is often required to be larger than the loop bandwidth of the LDO, the influence on the signal transmission speed and the loop stability is avoided, so that the selection may be performed according to the loop bandwidth requirement of the specific LDO.
