The traditional digital LDO consists of a comparator, a bidirectional shift register and a PMOS switch array. The clock comparator is used for comparing the output voltage VOUT with the reference voltage VREF, and providing a comparison result to the bidirectional shift register to control the shift direction of the register. The bidirectional shift register controls the conducting number of the PMOS switch array, and plays a role in adjusting output voltage.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention. In addition, the technical features involved in the embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
Example one
As shown in fig. 1, a digital LDO circuit for reducing voltage ripple includes: the digital LDO circuit L1 is connected with the voltage ripple reduction circuit L3; the mode control circuit is used for controlling the voltage ripple reduction circuit to be started when a signal that the resistance sent by the load is not changed is received; the turned-on voltage ripple reduction circuit is used for keeping the switching state of each switch in the switch array at the turning-on moment and latching the input voltage from each output end in the parallel output ends to the switch array.
The present embodiment uses additional circuitry to stop the change of the switch array in the digital LDO to make it approximate a constant current source. Thus, when the load is stable, the voltage ripple can be completely eliminated. This embodiment may be used to power a load that remains constant for a period of time, such as a circuit that goes into a sleep mode but is not powered down. In addition, the scheme of the embodiment can also reduce the power consumption of the digital LDO in operation and prolong the service time of the digital LDO circuit. The main principle is to reduce the switching times of the MOS tube array and the switching loss of the MOS tube, thereby reducing the power consumption and prolonging the service life.
(1) Principle for voltage ripple reduction
The reference voltage is an ideal output voltage of the digital LDO circuit, and the degree of deviation between the output voltage and the reference voltage determines what state the digital LDO circuit is in at the next time.
The mode control circuit L2 is substantially used to adjust the system operation mode according to the current output voltage (the operation mode includes the normal operation mode of the LDO or the operation mode in which the voltage ripple reduction circuit intervenes to reduce the ripple), when the output voltage has a large ripple (indicating that the resistance changes), the digital LDO circuit can enter the normal conventional adjustment state to adjust the output voltage to be near the reference value quickly; when the output voltage is stabilized near the reference value, the digital LDO circuit may enter a stable state, and at this time, the mode control circuit L2 and the voltage ripple reduction circuit L3 intervene to cancel the ripple of the output voltage.
(2) About digital LDO circuit body
The digital LDO circuit body comprises a clock comparator, a bidirectional shift register and a switch array which are connected in sequence; the negative input end of the clock comparator is used for inputting reference voltage, and the positive input end of the clock comparator is used for inputting output voltage; the switch array is connected with the voltage ripple reduction circuit. Preferably, the switch array is a PMOS transistor switch array. Preferably, the PMOS transistor switch array comprises a plurality of PMOS transistors connected in parallel.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, the digital LDO circuit body includes a clock comparator, a bidirectional shift register, and a switch array. The clock comparator is used for outputting the voltage VOUTAnd a reference voltage VREFComparing and providing the comparison result Compout to the bidirectional shift registerThe sel terminal of (1). The bidirectional shift register is composed of an alternative data selector and a D trigger to form a basic unit, an address input end sel of the data selector controls the shifting direction, and when sel is equal to 1, the shift register shifts to the right; when sel is 0, the shift register moves to left, the shift register can only control the on or off of one PMOS tube in one clock period, and the output Q [0: n ] of the shift register]The number of conducting tubes in the switch array is determined, and the function of regulating the output voltage is achieved. Switch array MP [0: n]Composed of PMOS tubes with same size, and the gates PG [0: n ] of the PMOS tubes in the switch array]And the output end Q [0: n ] of the bidirectional shift register]And connecting, wherein under normal work, the conducted switching tube works in a linear region, and the low-voltage working characteristic of the digital LDO is realized.
The working principle of the shift register is as follows: most of shift registers in the digital LDO circuit adopt an alternative data selector and a D edge trigger as basic units. The working principle of the D edge trigger is as follows: the output signal Q depends on the state of the rising edge coming time D; the specific operation principle of the data selector, which determines the shift condition of the register by selecting the high and low levels of the input signal of the port, can be described as follows in conjunction with fig. 3 and 4:
first, all the shift register outputs are set to 1, so that the register controlled transistors are turned off before the valid clock signal comes.
② the 1 end of the lowest bit and the 0 end of the highest bit are respectively Grounded (GND) and power supply (VDD), which is the basic connection condition of the shift register.
When the first valid clock signal Clk arrives, Q0 is 0, and the outputs Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4, Qn …, Qn 1 of the remaining shift registers; when the second valid clock signal Clk comes, Q0-Q1-0, and the outputs Q2-Q3-Q4-Qn … -Qn-1, … … of the remaining shift registers, and when the nth valid clock signal Clk comes, the outputs of the n-bit shift registers are all 0.
When the first valid clock signal reaches zero after all the transistors are turned on, i.e., when all the outputs of the shift register are 0, Qn is 1, Qn-1 is Qn-2 is … … is Q2 is Q1 is 0. When the second valid clock signal comes, Qn-1 is 1, and the outputs Qn-2, … …, Q2, Q1 are 0, … … of the rest of the shift registers, until when the nth valid clock signal comes, all the outputs of the shift registers are 1.
In summary, the following steps: macroscopically, the operating principle of the shift register is that when Compout is 1, every time an effective clock signal comes, in the clock period, the shift register moves one bit to the right, and a port with one bit output of 0 is added, so that the turned-on power tube in the one-bit power array can be added. When Compout is equal to 0, every time an active clock signal comes, the shift register is shifted to the left by one bit, so that the port of the shift register with 1 output is increased, and the conducting power tube in one power array can be turned off. For an n-bit shift register, when all output ends are 1, n effective clock signals are needed to set all output ends to be 0; similarly, on the premise that all the output terminals are 0, n clock signals are also needed to set all the output terminals of the shift register to 1. From the above analysis of the operating principle of the shift register and the operation of the 8-bit shift register described in fig. 4, it can be known that: within an effective clock range, the shift register either moves one bit to the right or one bit to the left, so that within one clock cycle, the shift register only controls the on or off of one power tube.
Referring to fig. 5, the working principle of the clock comparator is as follows: (1) vOUT>VREFWhen clk is 0, A, B point is charged, raising the voltage at A, B point. When CLK is 1, the discharge starts at A, B two points, but the discharge speed is different due to the difference between the gate voltages of the two MOS transistors, and the discharge speed at a point is higher than that at B point. After the voltage at point a is rapidly changed to a low voltage, Compout becomes 0 after passing through the latch. (2) VOUT<VREFWhen clk is 0, point A, B starts charging, and the voltage at these two points rises. When clk is 1, the discharge starts at point A, B, but at this time, the discharge rate at point B is greater than that at point a, and after passing through the latch, CompOUT is 1.
In summary, the control mechanism of the digital LDO circuit is: with reference to the schematic block diagram of fig. 2, when the output voltage vout > vref, the output signal Compout of the clocked comparator is equal to 0, and at this time, the shift register moves to the left by one bit, and the number of conductive transistors in the switch array controlled by the shift register is decreased by one, so that the output voltage vout becomes smaller; when the output voltage vout is smaller than vref, the output signal Compout of the clocked comparator is equal to 1, and at this time, the shift register moves one bit to the right, and the number of the turned-on transistors in the switch array is increased by one, so that the output voltage is increased, and the purpose of voltage stabilization is achieved.
(3) The mode control circuit comprises two voltage comparators with different reference voltages and an exclusive-OR gate. The input voltage of one of the voltage comparators is the output voltage of the digital LDO and a fixed voltage higher than the reference voltage of the digital LDO, and the input voltage of the other voltage comparator is the output voltage of the digital LDO and a fixed voltage lower than the reference voltage of the digital LDO. The input end of the exclusive-OR gate is the output result of the two voltage comparators and outputs a control signal.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 6, the mode control circuit comprises two voltage comparators for detecting the output voltage V of the digital LDO voltage in real timeOUTAnd generating a control signal according to the detection result through an exclusive-or gate, thereby controlling whether the voltage ripple reduction circuit operates. Let the input voltages of the two voltage comparators be Vref+And Vout,Vref-And VoutWhen V isref+>Vout>Vref-The input of the exclusive or gate is 0, 1. The output is 1 and the voltage ripple reduction circuit is started.
The voltage ripple reduction circuit includes the same number of latches as the output ports of the bidirectional shift register. The input end of each latch is respectively connected with the output end of the bidirectional shift register, the output end of each latch is connected with the switch array, and the control end of each latch is uniformly connected with the output end of the mode control circuit.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 7, the operating principle of the voltage ripple reduction circuit is as follows: when the mode control circuit outputs a low level signal, the latch transmits an output signal of the bidirectional shift register to the switch array, and the digital LDO works normally. When the mode control circuit outputs a high level signal, the latch stops transmitting the output signal of the bidirectional shift register to the switch array, and the switch array keeps the current state and becomes a constant current source. When the load is not changed, the voltage ripple can be completely eliminated.
Example two
The difference from the first embodiment is the condition that the voltage ripple reduction circuit is turned on.
The control signal finally output by the mode control circuit is jointly determined by the following parts: a load change signal provided by the load, a voltage ripple detection circuit (voltage comparator) consisting of the circuit shown in fig. 6, and an and gate. The input ends of the AND gates are respectively connected with a load change signal O1 provided by the load and an output signal O2 of the voltage ripple detection circuit, and the output ends of the AND gates are used as the integral output of the mode control circuit. If and only if both are 1, the mode control circuit outputs a high level and starts the ripple reduction circuit. The load change signal O1 provided by the load should be set to 0 when the load changes. The voltage ripple detection circuit is responsible for comparing the output voltage Vout of the LDO with two reference voltages Vref +, Vref-. The output signal O2 of the voltage ripple detection circuit will be set to 1 if and only if Vref + > Vout > Vref-. When the load changes, the load change signal O1 is set to 0, turning off the ripple reduction circuit. After a period of time, when the voltage ripple detection circuit detects that the output voltage will reach a relatively stable state again, the ripple reduction circuit is started again at this time to thoroughly eliminate the ripple.
It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the invention, and that any modification, equivalent replacement, or improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the scope of the present invention.
