As shown in fig. 4 to 6, when the voltage signal vdd decreases, the coupling module 130 couples the voltage change to the first pole of the switching transistor M1, so that the potential of the first pole of the switching transistor M1 decreases, thereby increasing the potential difference between the control pole and the first pole of the switching transistor M1, the on current of the switching transistor M1 increases and is output to the current mirror 141, the current mirror 141 feeds back the on current to the control pole of the output switching transistor M2, so that the potential of the control pole G1 of the output switching transistor M2 increases, thereby increasing the conduction degree of the output switching transistor M2, further increasing the on current of the output switching transistor M2, improving the voltage signal vdd output by the output switching transistor M2, realizing the feedback adjustment of the voltage signal vdd, and improving the transient response speed of the low-dropout linear voltage stabilizing circuit.

As shown in fig. 7, the low dropout linear voltage regulator circuit further includes a discharging module 150, a control end of the discharging module 150 is connected to the second control signal input end EN2, a first end of the discharging module 150 is connected to the first potential input end V1, and a second end of the discharging module 150 is connected to the coupling module 130; the second control signal input from the first control signal and the second control signal input terminal EN2 controls the state of the discharging module 150 to be opposite to the state of the response module 140.
Specifically, when the low dropout linear voltage regulator circuit works for the voltage signal vdd, the first control signal controls the response module 140 to be turned on, the second control signal controls the discharge module 150 to be turned off, the response module 140 responds to the voltage output by the coupling module 130 and outputs the voltage to the output module 120, so that feedback regulation of the voltage signal vdd is realized, and the transient response speed of the low dropout linear voltage regulator circuit is improved.

As shown in fig. 9, when the response module 140 includes the switching transistor M1, the type of the switching transistor M1 is opposite to the type of the first transistor T1 when the first control signal input terminal EN1 is multiplexed to the second control signal input terminal EN 2.
Specifically, when the response module 140 includes the switching transistor M1, the switching transistor M1 may be set to be of a type opposite to that of the first transistor T1 such that the first control signal input terminal EN1 is multiplexed to the second control signal input terminal EN2, i.e., the first control signal is multiplexed to the second control signal. When the first control signal controls the switching transistor M1 to be turned on, the first control signal simultaneously controls the first transistor T1 to be turned off.

As shown in fig. 10, the low dropout linear voltage regulator circuit further includes a first inverting unit 160; the first inverting unit 160 includes an odd number of first inverters 161 connected in series; the input terminal of the first inverting unit 160 is connected to the first control signal input terminal EN1, and the output terminal of the first inverting unit 160 is used as the second control signal input terminal EN2, and when the response module 140 includes the switching transistor M1, the type of the switching transistor M1 is the same as the type of the first transistor T1.
Specifically, the odd number of first inverters 161 connected in series may invert the first control signal provided from the first control signal input terminal EN1 and then control the on or off of the first transistor T1 as the second control signal provided from the second control signal input terminal EN 2. Illustratively, the first inverting unit 160 is illustratively shown in fig. 10 as including a first inverter 161. When the first control signal is at a high level, the first control signal is transmitted to the control electrode of the switching transistor M1, and simultaneously the first control signal becomes a low level after passing through the first inverting unit 160, and then is transmitted to the control electrode of the first transistor T1. And the type of the switching transistor M1 is the same as the type of the first transistor T1, the states of the switching transistor M1 and the first transistor T1 are opposite. For example, the switching transistor M1 and the first transistor T1 are P-type transistors, and when the first control signal is at a low level, the first control signal controls the switching transistor M1 to be turned on, and the first control signal changes to a high level after passing through the first inverting unit 160 and controls the first transistor T1 to be turned off as the second control signal. When the first control signal is at a high level, the first control signal controls the switching transistor M1 to be turned off, and the first control signal becomes a low level after passing through the first inverting unit 160 and controls the first transistor T1 to be turned on as a second control signal. By providing the first inverting unit 160 and the switching transistor M1 of the same type as the first transistor T1, the provision of the signal port can be reduced, which is advantageous for simplifying the low dropout linear voltage regulator circuit.

Specifically, an odd number of second inverters 171 connected in series are connected in series between the first control signal input terminal EN1 and the response module 140, so that the first control signal is input to the control terminal of the response module 140 after being inverted. Meanwhile, an odd number of second inverters 171 connected in series are connected in series between the first control signal input end EN1 and the first inverting unit 160, so that the first control signal is inverted twice and then used as a second control signal to control the state of the discharge module 150. Illustratively, the second inverting unit 170 is illustratively shown in fig. 11 as including a second inverter 171. When the response module 140 includes the switching transistor M1, the discharge module 150 includes the first transistor T1, and the types of the switching transistor M1 and the first transistor T1 are the same, the first control signal is inverted by the second inverting unit 170 and then transmitted to the control electrode of the switching transistor M1 to control the state of the switching transistor M1, and meanwhile, the first control signal is inverted by the second inverting unit 170 and the first inverting unit 160 twice and then used as the second control signal to control the state of the first transistor T1, so that when the types of the switching transistor M1 and the first transistor T1 are the same, the first control signal can control the states of the switching transistor M1 and the first transistor T1 to be opposite at the same time through the inverting unit.
