Description

Control method of voltage stabilizer circuit and voltage stabilizer circuit
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of dynamic zero compensation, in particular to a control method of a voltage stabilizer circuit and the voltage stabilizer circuit.
Background
With the development of semiconductor integrated circuits, portable electronic products mainly powered by batteries play an increasingly important role in daily life, and voltage regulation circuits are required in battery powered systems, so that LDO regulators (Low Dropout Regulator, low dropout regulators) are widely designed and used as one of the core units of the voltage regulation circuits due to their simple structure, fast response speed, strong power supply ripple suppression capability, etc. In LDO voltage regulator systems, the amount of current required by the load varies with the operating state of the load, and the impedance provided by the load varies due to the different load currents, which often results in unstable operation of the closed loop system formed by the LDO voltage regulator and its load.
At present, most of the technical schemes are to use a feedback coefficient reduction method and a zero point compensation scheme for stability compensation of an unstable system: the feedback coefficient reducing method is to reduce the feedback coefficient of the system to make the gain focus of the system move to the left side of the phase focus, so that the system becomes stable from unstable, but the feedback coefficient is reduced to greatly reduce the gain and bandwidth, so that the precision of the LDO voltage stabilizer is reduced; the zero compensation scheme generally uses an ESR (Equivalment SERIES RESISTANCE) zero compensation method, which can generate a compensation zero by utilizing an output capacitor and an equivalent series resistance thereof on the premise of not influencing the output precision of the LDO voltage stabilizer, and the zero is moved to a direction close to an original point by adjusting the output capacitor, so that the phase shift of a system at a unit gain is smaller than-180 degrees, the system is changed from unstable to stable, and the ESR zero compensation method cannot play the role of the system in the LDO voltage stabilizer with a large load variation range.
Most of the existing technical schemes have the following disadvantages:
(1) The load is compensated by a large capacitance, and the used capacitance value needs to be large, so that the system bandwidth of the whole LDO voltage regulator becomes narrow, and the response rate becomes slow;
(2) Zero compensation is carried out on the circuit by relying on the equivalent series resistance of the load capacitor, the equivalent series resistance value of the capacitor is excessively depended, the stability of a loop is influenced by excessively low and excessively high values, the method is influenced by factors such as temperature, load current and the like, and the compensation effect is unstable;
(3) In the traditional zero compensation circuit, the zero frequency of compensation is fixed, and in an LDO voltage stabilizer with large change of a load range, the compensation effect is unstable due to large change of the frequency of an output main pole point, and the circuit still can oscillate under certain conditions.

All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
Most of the technical schemes are to use a feedback coefficient reduction method and a zero point compensation scheme for stability compensation of an unstable system: the feedback coefficient reducing method is to reduce the feedback coefficient of the system to make the gain focus of the system move to the left side of the phase focus, so that the system becomes stable from unstable, but the feedback coefficient is reduced to greatly reduce the gain and bandwidth, so that the precision of the LDO voltage stabilizer is reduced; the zero compensation scheme generally uses an ESR (Equivalment SERIES RESISTANCE) zero compensation method, which can generate a compensation zero by utilizing an output capacitor and an equivalent series resistance thereof on the premise of not influencing the output precision of the LDO voltage stabilizer, and the zero is moved to a direction close to an original point by adjusting the output capacitor, so that the phase shift of a system at a unit gain is smaller than-180 degrees, the system is changed from unstable to stable, and the ESR zero compensation method cannot play the role of the system in the LDO voltage stabilizer with a large load variation range.
Most of the existing technical schemes have the following disadvantages:
(1) The load is compensated by a large capacitance, and the used capacitance value needs to be large, so that the system bandwidth of the whole LDO voltage regulator becomes narrow, and the response rate becomes slow;
(2) Zero compensation is carried out on the circuit by relying on the equivalent series resistance of the load capacitor, the equivalent series resistance value of the capacitor is excessively depended, the stability of a loop is influenced by excessively low and excessively high values, the method is influenced by factors such as temperature, load current and the like, and the compensation effect is unstable;

In the mode, the transient response of the LDO voltage stabilizer can be proved; the LDO voltage stabilizer is ensured to run stably with high precision and does not oscillate; a compensation zero can be generated that follows the main pole.
For the sake of understanding the present embodiment, a detailed description will be given of a control method of a voltage regulator circuit disclosed in the present embodiment.

The voltage regulator circuit of the present embodiment includes: the device comprises a voltage stabilizing circuit, a sampling circuit and a zero point compensation circuit. Wherein the main pole of the voltage regulator circuit is positively correlated with the load current. The voltage stabilizer of the voltage stabilizing circuit can be an LDO voltage stabilizer, and the LDO is a linear voltage stabilizer. Because the voltage in the circuit is unstable, the output voltage of the voltage stabilizing circuit also fluctuates, the output voltage can be divided by a plurality of voltage dividing resistors, the difference between the divided output voltage and the reference voltage is used as an error signal, and the output voltage can be regulated by the error signal so as to enable the divided output voltage to be close to the reference voltage.

Zero drift is a phenomenon that when an input signal of an amplifying circuit is zero, a static working point is changed due to the influence of factors such as temperature change, unstable power supply voltage and the like, and is amplified and transmitted step by step, so that the voltage of an output end of the circuit deviates from an original fixed value and floats up and down.
In order to solve the zero drift, a zero compensation circuit can be added into the circuit, and the zero drift can be compensated by the zero compensation circuit. The zero compensation circuit in this embodiment can generate miller compensation through the compensation resistor and the compensation capacitor, and separate the primary pole and the secondary pole of the voltage stabilizer circuit.
