Detailed Description
In order to make the technical means, the creation characteristics, the achievement purposes and the effects of the invention easy to understand, the invention is further described with the specific embodiments.
In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "inner", "outer", "front", "rear", "both ends", "one end", "the other end", and the like indicate orientations or positional relationships based on those shown in the drawings, and are only for convenience of description and simplicity of description, but do not indicate or imply that the referred device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed in a specific orientation, and be operated, and thus, should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
In the description of the present invention, it is to be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "disposed," "connected," and the like are to be construed broadly, such as "connected," which may be fixedly connected, detachably connected, or integrally connected; can be mechanically or electrically connected; they may be connected directly or indirectly through intervening media, or they may be interconnected between two elements. The specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood in specific cases to those skilled in the art.
As shown in fig. 1, when the pulse signal PWM outputted from the comparator is high, the high level control signal HSD _ ON is high, the high level power transistor HSD _ FET is turned ON, and the inductor current IL increases. The time control signal T is applied until the time of the on-time controller is overON_ENDWhen the voltage is high, the HSD _ FET of the high-order power tube is turned off, the LSD _ FET of the low-order power tube is turned on, and the inductive current IL is reduced. Therefore, the output voltage VOUT decreases, the feedback voltage VFB decreases, the sawtooth wave signal SW _ RAMP decreases, the RAMP signal SLOPE of the jitter suppressor of the comparator 114 increases, and when the sum of the voltages at the positive phase input terminal of the comparator 114 is slightly higher (or can be considered to be approximately equal to) the sum of the negative phase input voltages, the pulse signal PWM output by the comparator 114 increases, the high level control signal HSD _ ON also increases, the low level power transistor LSD _ FET turns off, and the high level power transistor HSD _ FET turns ON.
In the conventional ACOT buck converter, when the pulse signal PWM becomes high, it means that the sum of the positive phase input voltages of the comparators is already slightly higher than the sum of the negative phase input voltages. As can be seen from fig. 2, the sawtooth wave signal SW _ RAMP at the negative input end is lower than the RAMP average signal SW _ AVG at the positive input end by the difference Δ VSW. In addition, the SLOPE signal SLOPE input at the non-inverting input terminal has an extra voltage VSLOPE (the extra voltage VSLOPE is added at the non-inverting input terminal to suppress the jitter of the SLOPE signal). Therefore, at the moment of comparator flipping, the feedback voltage VFB should be higher than the reference voltage VREF, so that it can be ensured that the sum of the voltages at the positive phase input terminals is equal to the sum of the voltages at the negative phase input terminals at the moment of comparator flipping. That is:
SW_AVG+VREF+VSLOPE=SW_RAMP+VFB
ΔVFB=VFB-VREF=SW_AVG-SW_RAMP+VSLOPE
the value of feedback voltage VFB higher than reference voltage VREF can be found as:
ΔVFB=ΔVSW+VSLOPE
ideally, the feedback voltage VFB should be equal to the reference voltage VREF. As can be seen from the above equation, the feedback voltage VFB is not equal to the reference voltage VREF. Due to the variation of the input/output voltage, the difference Δ VSW also varies, and the deviation of the feedback voltage VFB becomes uncontrollable.
In order to solve the above problem, the present invention provides an ACOT buck converter, which has a structure as shown in fig. 3, and includes an ACOT controller 11 and a buck converter 12, where the ACOT controller 11 is connected to the buck converter 12.
