开关电源及实现恒定输出电流的开关电源控制器Switching power supply and switching power supply controller for realizing constant output current

技术领域technical field

本实用新型涉及开关电源技术,尤其涉及一种开关电源及实现恒定输出电流的开关电源控制器。The utility model relates to switching power supply technology, in particular to a switching power supply and a switching power supply controller for realizing constant output current.

背景技术Background technique

参考图1,传统的降压结构的LED驱动电路中,功率开关M1导通时,导通时间为Ton,输入电流流经功率开关M1、采样电阻Rcs、电感L1和输出负载电容C1,电感L1上的电流增加,电感L1存储能量,此时,流经输出负载电容C1、输出端的电流与流过采样电阻Rcs的电流相同。当电流达到设定值Vr1/Rcs时,比较器113的输出信号翻转,经逻辑和驱动电路112生成相应的触发信号Reset,使得功率开关M1关断。关断时间Toff由关断时间控制电路111决定,通过外置的电阻R1调节关断时间Toff。在功率开关M1关断后,电感L1上的电流经续流二极管D1续流,流经续流二极管D1以及输出负载电容C1、输出端,电感L1上的电流减小,电感L1释放能量到输出负载电容C1和输出端。Referring to Fig. 1, in the traditional step-down LED drive circuit, when the power switch M1 is turned on, the on-time is Ton, and the input current flows through the power switch M1, the sampling resistor Rcs, the inductor L1 and the output load capacitor C1, and the inductor L1 The current on the capacitor increases, and the inductor L1 stores energy. At this time, the current flowing through the output load capacitor C1 and the output terminal is the same as the current flowing through the sampling resistor Rcs. When the current reaches the set value Vr1/Rcs, the output signal of the comparator 113 is reversed, and a corresponding trigger signal Reset is generated through the logic and driving circuit 112, so that the power switch M1 is turned off. The off-time Toff is determined by the off-time control circuit 111, and the off-time Toff is adjusted by an external resistor R1. After the power switch M1 is turned off, the current on the inductor L1 continues to flow through the freewheeling diode D1, flows through the freewheeling diode D1, the output load capacitor C1, and the output terminal, the current on the inductor L1 decreases, and the inductor L1 releases energy to the output load capacitor C1 and the output.

如图2,功率开关M1导通时,假设流经输出负载电容C1、输出端的平均电值为Iout1;上功率开关M1关断时,假设流经输出负载电容C1、输出端的平均电流值为Iout2,当电路处于电感电流连续模式时,Iout1和Iout2相同。当输出电压固定,由于峰值电流固定为Vr1/Rcs,且关断时间Toff固定,在Toff时间内电感电流下降值就是固定的,从而电流的纹波是确定的,进而可以做到输出电流固定。As shown in Figure 2, when the power switch M1 is turned on, it is assumed that the average current value flowing through the output load capacitor C1 and the output terminal is Iout1; when the upper power switch M1 is turned off, it is assumed that the average current value flowing through the output load capacitor C1 and the output terminal is Iout2 , when the circuit is in the inductor current continuous mode, Iout1 and Iout2 are the same. When the output voltage is fixed, since the peak current is fixed at Vr1/Rcs, and the off-time Toff is fixed, the drop value of the inductor current within the Toff time is fixed, so the current ripple is determined, and the output current can be fixed.

图1中的开关电源实现了输出电流控制,电路简单、成本较低,但是也有缺点。当输出电压变化时,关断时间Toff不变,相同的关断时间Toff内的电感电流下降值就发生了变化,从而平均输出电流发生变化,导致输出电流的负载调整率较差。并且图1的电路中,由于不可避免的电路延迟,从比较器113的输出信号翻转到功率开关M1关断有一段关断延迟时间,而在该关断延迟时间内峰值电流会继续增加,从而导致输入电压变化时,输出电流也会发生变化,即电路的恒流特性不够好,恒流控制的精度不足。The switching power supply in Figure 1 realizes the output current control, the circuit is simple and the cost is low, but it also has disadvantages. When the output voltage changes, the off-time Toff remains unchanged, and the drop value of the inductor current within the same off-time Toff changes, so that the average output current changes, resulting in poor load regulation of the output current. And in the circuit of FIG. 1, due to unavoidable circuit delay, there is a turn-off delay time from the output signal of the comparator 113 to the turn-off of the power switch M1, and the peak current will continue to increase during the turn-off delay time, thus When the input voltage changes, the output current will also change, that is, the constant current characteristics of the circuit are not good enough, and the precision of constant current control is not enough.

具体实施方式Detailed ways

下面结合具体实施例和附图对本实用新型作进一步说明,但不应以此限制本实用新型的保护范围。The utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and accompanying drawings, but the protection scope of the utility model should not be limited thereby.

参考图3,第一实施例中的开关电源主要包括:功率开关M1、电感L1、采样电阻Rcs、续流二极管D1、输出电容C1和开关电源控制器300。Referring to FIG. 3 , the switching power supply in the first embodiment mainly includes: a power switch M1 , an inductor L1 , a sampling resistor Rcs, a freewheeling diode D1 , an output capacitor C1 and a switching power supply controller 300 .

其中,续流二极管D1的负极接收输入电压Vin,输出电容C1的第一端连接续流二极管D1的负极,电感L1的第一端连接续流二极管D1的正极,电感L1的第二端连接输出电容C1的第二端,功率开关M1的第一端连接续流二极管D1的正极,功率开关M1的第二端连接采样电阻Rcs的第一端,功率开关M1的控制端接收开关电源控制器300输出的驱动信号GT,采样电阻Rcs的第一端连接功率开关M1的第二端,采样电阻Rcs的第二端接地,开关电源控制器300接收采样电阻Rcs上的采样电压并输出驱动信号GT至功率开关M1的控制端,用以控制功率开关M1的导通和关断。Wherein, the negative pole of the freewheeling diode D1 receives the input voltage Vin, the first terminal of the output capacitor C1 is connected to the negative pole of the freewheeling diode D1, the first terminal of the inductor L1 is connected to the positive pole of the freewheeling diode D1, and the second terminal of the inductor L1 is connected to the output The second terminal of the capacitor C1, the first terminal of the power switch M1 is connected to the anode of the freewheeling diode D1, the second terminal of the power switch M1 is connected to the first terminal of the sampling resistor Rcs, and the control terminal of the power switch M1 receives the switching power supply controller 300 For the output driving signal GT, the first end of the sampling resistor Rcs is connected to the second end of the power switch M1, and the second end of the sampling resistor Rcs is grounded. The switching power supply controller 300 receives the sampling voltage on the sampling resistor Rcs and outputs the driving signal GT to The control terminal of the power switch M1 is used to control the turn-on and turn-off of the power switch M1.

进一步而言,输出电容C1主要起到输出电流滤波的作用,减小输出电流和输出电压的纹波。而电感L1和输出电容C1之间串联,二者的连接位置可以互换,输出电容C1配置为与负载并联。Furthermore, the output capacitor C1 mainly plays the role of filtering the output current, reducing the ripple of the output current and the output voltage. The inductor L1 and the output capacitor C1 are connected in series, the connection positions of the two can be interchanged, and the output capacitor C1 is configured to be connected in parallel with the load.

功率开关M1导通时,电感L1存储能量,此时流经电感L1的电流与流经输出电容C1和输出端Vout的电流相同,输出电流与流经采样电阻Rcs的电流相同。功率开关M1关断时,流经电感L1的电流经过续流二极管D1到输出电容C1和输出端Vout续流,向负载继续传递能量。当电感L1的电流始终大于零,功率开关M1导通时流经电感L1的平均电流与功率开关M1关断时流经电感L1的平均电流相同,也与流经输出电容C1、输出端Vout的电流相同。When the power switch M1 is turned on, the inductor L1 stores energy. At this time, the current flowing through the inductor L1 is the same as the current flowing through the output capacitor C1 and the output terminal Vout, and the output current is the same as the current flowing through the sampling resistor Rcs. When the power switch M1 is turned off, the current flowing through the inductor L1 continues to flow through the freewheeling diode D1 to the output capacitor C1 and the output terminal Vout, and continues to transfer energy to the load. When the current of the inductor L1 is always greater than zero, the average current flowing through the inductor L1 when the power switch M1 is turned on is the same as the average current flowing through the inductor L1 when the power switch M1 is turned off, and is also the same as that flowing through the output capacitor C1 and the output terminal Vout same current.

开关电源控制器300主要包括:关断时间控制电路311、逻辑和驱动电路312、比较器313以及环路控制模块310。The switching power supply controller 300 mainly includes: an off-time control circuit 311 , a logic and driving circuit 312 , a comparator 313 and a loop control module 310 .

进一步而言,比较器电路313的第一输入端接收第一基准电压Vr1,第二输入端连接采样电阻Rcs的第一端,当采样电阻Rcs上的采样电压高于预设的第一基准电压Vr1时,比较器313的输出信号翻转,输出关断信号Reset至逻辑和驱动电路312。关断时间控制电路311根据环路控制模块310输出的控制电压Vc确定关断时间,在功率开关M1关断时开始计时,当计时达到该关断时间后,输出开通信号Set至逻辑和驱动电路312。逻辑和驱动电路312根据关断时间控制电路311和比较器313输出的关断信号Reset和开通信号Set产生驱动信号GT,用于切换功率开关M1的导通和关断状态,在开通信号Set到来时,驱动信号GT使得功率开关M1导通,在关断信号Reset到来时,驱动信号GT使得功率开关M1关断。环路控制模块310的输入端接收采样电阻Rcs上的采样电压,其输出端产生该控制电压Vc,控制电压Vc用于调节关断时间控制电路311确定的关断时间,以使功率开关M1导通期间的采样电压的平均值和第二基准电压Vr2相等,其中第一基准电压Vr1小于第二基准电压Vr2的2倍。Further, the first input terminal of the comparator circuit 313 receives the first reference voltage Vr1, the second input terminal is connected to the first terminal of the sampling resistor Rcs, when the sampling voltage on the sampling resistor Rcs is higher than the preset first reference voltage When Vr1 is reached, the output signal of the comparator 313 is reversed, and the shutdown signal Reset is output to the logic sum driving circuit 312 . The turn-off time control circuit 311 determines the turn-off time according to the control voltage Vc output by the loop control module 310, starts timing when the power switch M1 is turned off, and outputs the turn-on signal Set to the logic and driving circuit when the timing reaches the turn-off time 312. The logic and driving circuit 312 generates the driving signal GT according to the off-signal Reset and the on-signal Set output by the off-time control circuit 311 and the comparator 313, and is used to switch the on and off states of the power switch M1. When the on-signal Set arrives , the drive signal GT turns on the power switch M1 , and when the shutdown signal Reset arrives, the drive signal GT turns off the power switch M1 . The input end of the loop control module 310 receives the sampling voltage on the sampling resistor Rcs, and its output end generates the control voltage Vc, which is used to adjust the off time determined by the off time control circuit 311, so that the power switch M1 conducts The average value of the sampling voltage during the on period is equal to the second reference voltage Vr2, wherein the first reference voltage Vr1 is less than twice the second reference voltage Vr2.

需要说明的是,由于实际电路中的关断时间延迟,导致实际的功率开关M1关断时的采样电压要稍高于第一基准电压Vr1。It should be noted that, due to the off-time delay in the actual circuit, the sampling voltage when the actual power switch M1 is turned off is slightly higher than the first reference voltage Vr1 .

在第一实施例中,环路控制模块310包括跨导放大器314和第一开关S1。其中,跨导放大器314的第一输入端接收采样电压,跨导放大器314的第二输入端接收第二基准电压Vr2,跨导放大器的输出端连接第一开关S1的第一端,第一开关S1的第二端连接补偿电容C2的第一端和关断时间控制电路311的输入端,第一开关S1的控制端接收驱动信号GT,补偿电容C2的第二端接地。在功率开关M1导通期间第一开关S1导通,在功率开关M1关断期间第一开关S1关断。In the first embodiment, the loop control module 310 includes a transconductance amplifier 314 and a first switch S1. Wherein, the first input end of the transconductance amplifier 314 receives the sampling voltage, the second input end of the transconductance amplifier 314 receives the second reference voltage Vr2, the output end of the transconductance amplifier is connected to the first end of the first switch S1, and the first switch The second terminal of S1 is connected to the first terminal of the compensation capacitor C2 and the input terminal of the off-time control circuit 311 , the control terminal of the first switch S1 receives the driving signal GT, and the second terminal of the compensation capacitor C2 is grounded. When the power switch M1 is turned on, the first switch S1 is turned on, and when the power switch M1 is turned off, the first switch S1 is turned off.

进一步而言,在功率开关M1导通期间跨导放大器314正常工作,跨导放大器314的输出电流Igm是与跨导放大器314的输入电压差值成正比的电流,即与(Vr2-Vcs)成正比的值,具体表示为Igm=Gm*(Vr2-Vcs),其中,Gm是跨导放大器314的跨导,对于确定的电路而言是一个恒定值,Vr2是第二基准电压Vr2的电压值,Vcs是采样电压的电压值。在功率开关M1关断期间,跨导放大器314与补偿电容C2的连接断开。跨导放大器314的输出电流Igm用于向补偿电容C2充放电,从而产生用于调节关断时间的控制电压Vc。Furthermore, the transconductance amplifier 314 works normally during the conduction period of the power switch M1, and the output current Igm of the transconductance amplifier 314 is a current proportional to the input voltage difference of the transconductance amplifier 314, that is, it is proportional to (Vr2-Vcs) The proportional value is specifically expressed as Igm=Gm*(Vr2-Vcs), where Gm is the transconductance of the transconductance amplifier 314, which is a constant value for a certain circuit, and Vr2 is the voltage value of the second reference voltage Vr2 , Vcs is the voltage value of the sampling voltage. When the power switch M1 is turned off, the connection between the transconductance amplifier 314 and the compensation capacitor C2 is disconnected. The output current Igm of the transconductance amplifier 314 is used to charge and discharge the compensation capacitor C2 to generate a control voltage Vc for adjusting the off time.

由环路的负反馈特性可知,当输出电流偏大时,导致跨导放大器314的输出电流偏小并使得控制电压Vc降低,进而使得关断时间控制电路311确定的关断时间变长,从而调节降低输出电流。补偿电容C2对跨导放大器314的输出电流积分,以最终实现跨导放大器314的两个输入端的平均值相等,在环路稳定后,补偿电容C2上的控制电压Vc稳定,关断时间得以确定。It can be seen from the negative feedback characteristics of the loop that when the output current is too large, the output current of the transconductance amplifier 314 is too small and the control voltage Vc is reduced, thereby making the off-time determined by the off-time control circuit 311 longer, so that regulation reduces the output current. The compensation capacitor C2 integrates the output current of the transconductance amplifier 314 to finally realize that the average values of the two input terminals of the transconductance amplifier 314 are equal. After the loop is stabilized, the control voltage Vc on the compensation capacitor C2 is stable, and the turn-off time is determined. .

另外,本领域技术人员应当理解,补偿电容C2可以采用电阻电容的串并联等其他形式的补偿电路来替换,以调节电路的稳定性和动态特性。In addition, those skilled in the art should understand that the compensation capacitor C2 can be replaced by other forms of compensation circuits such as series and parallel connections of resistors and capacitors, so as to adjust the stability and dynamic characteristics of the circuit.

该开关电源的工作原理如下:功率开关M1导通期间,采样电阻Rcs上具有采样电压Vcs,采样电压Vcs输入到跨导放大器314的一个输入端,跨导放大器314的另一输入端连接第二基准电压Vr2,跨导放大器具有如下特性:跨导放大器的输出电流Igm与跨导放大器314的输入差值电压(Vr2-Vcs)成正比,即Igm=Gm*(Vr2-Vcs),Gm即跨导放大器314的跨导,对于确定的电路而言是一个恒定值,跨导放大器314的输出端连接到补偿电路;在功率开关M1关断期间,跨导放大器314的输出端与补偿电路之间的通路断开;补偿电路上的电压决定了功率开关M1的关断时间;采样电压达到设定的第一基准电压Vr1时,功率开关M1关断;为了保证开关电源处于电感电流连续模式,要求第一基准电压Vr1小于2倍的第二基准电压Vr2,环路稳定后,跨导放大器314的输出电流Igm的平均值为零,整个开关电源的恒定输出电流就是第二基准电压Vr2与采样电阻Rcs的比值。The working principle of the switching power supply is as follows: during the conduction period of the power switch M1, there is a sampling voltage Vcs on the sampling resistor Rcs, and the sampling voltage Vcs is input to one input terminal of the transconductance amplifier 314, and the other input terminal of the transconductance amplifier 314 is connected to the second The reference voltage Vr2, the transconductance amplifier has the following characteristics: the output current Igm of the transconductance amplifier is proportional to the input difference voltage (Vr2-Vcs) of the transconductance amplifier 314, that is, Igm=Gm*(Vr2-Vcs), Gm is the transconductance The transconductance of the transconductance amplifier 314 is a constant value for a certain circuit, and the output terminal of the transconductance amplifier 314 is connected to the compensation circuit; The path of the power switch is disconnected; the voltage on the compensation circuit determines the turn-off time of the power switch M1; when the sampling voltage reaches the set first reference voltage Vr1, the power switch M1 is turned off; in order to ensure that the switching power supply is in the continuous mode of the inductor current, it is required The first reference voltage Vr1 is less than 2 times the second reference voltage Vr2. After the loop is stable, the average value of the output current Igm of the transconductance amplifier 314 is zero, and the constant output current of the entire switching power supply is the second reference voltage Vr2 and the sampling resistor. Ratio of Rcs.

图4示出了第二实施例的开关电源的结构,其与图3所示的开关电源类似,仅仅是环路控制模块的具体结构作了调整。如图4所示,第二实施例中的环路控制模块包括跨导放大器314、第二开关S2和第三开关S3。其中,跨导放大器314的第一输入端连接第二开关S2的第一端和第三开关S3的第一端,跨导放大器314的第二输入端接收第二基准电压Vr2,跨导放大器314的输出端连接补偿电路和关断时间控制电路311的输入端,第二开关S2的第二端接收采样电压,第二开关S2的控制端接收驱动信号GT,第三开关S3的第二端接收第二基准电压Vr2,第三开关的控制端接收驱动信号GT的反相信号,在功率开关M1导通期间,第二开关S2导通且第三开关S3关断,在功率开关M1关断期间,第二开关S2关断且第三开关S3导通。更加具体而言,驱动信号GT的反相信号是由反相器315产生的。Fig. 4 shows the structure of the switching power supply of the second embodiment, which is similar to the switching power supply shown in Fig. 3, only the specific structure of the loop control module is adjusted. As shown in FIG. 4 , the loop control module in the second embodiment includes a transconductance amplifier 314 , a second switch S2 and a third switch S3 . Wherein, the first input end of the transconductance amplifier 314 is connected to the first end of the second switch S2 and the first end of the third switch S3, the second input end of the transconductance amplifier 314 receives the second reference voltage Vr2, and the transconductance amplifier 314 The output terminal of the second switch S2 is connected to the input terminal of the compensation circuit and the off-time control circuit 311, the second terminal of the second switch S2 receives the sampling voltage, the control terminal of the second switch S2 receives the driving signal GT, and the second terminal of the third switch S3 receives The second reference voltage Vr2, the control terminal of the third switch receives the inverse signal of the driving signal GT, during the conduction period of the power switch M1, the second switch S2 is conducted and the third switch S3 is turned off, and during the period when the power switch M1 is turned off , the second switch S2 is turned off and the third switch S3 is turned on. More specifically, the inverted signal of the driving signal GT is generated by the inverter 315 .

从效果上看,在功率开关M1导通期间,跨导放大器314的负输入端连接采样电阻Rcs,跨导放大器314的正输入端接收第二基准电压Vr2。在功率开关M1关断期间,跨导放大器314的正输入端和负输入端都接收第二基准电压Vr2(当然,这个电位也可以是其他任意电位),由跨导放大器314的特性可以知道,此时跨导放大器314的输出电流为零,相当于断开了跨导放大器314与补偿电容C2之间的连接,因此其电路功能与第一实施例中的环路控制模块等效。In effect, during the conduction period of the power switch M1 , the negative input terminal of the transconductance amplifier 314 is connected to the sampling resistor Rcs, and the positive input terminal of the transconductance amplifier 314 receives the second reference voltage Vr2 . When the power switch M1 is turned off, both the positive input terminal and the negative input terminal of the transconductance amplifier 314 receive the second reference voltage Vr2 (of course, this potential can also be any other potential), as can be known from the characteristics of the transconductance amplifier 314, At this time, the output current of the transconductance amplifier 314 is zero, which is equivalent to disconnecting the connection between the transconductance amplifier 314 and the compensation capacitor C2, so its circuit function is equivalent to that of the loop control module in the first embodiment.

需要说明的是,图3和图4中给出的仅是示例,实际上只要能够满足跨导放大器在功率开关M1导通期间向补偿电路充放电,在功率开关M1关断期间停止向补偿电路充放电即可。It should be noted that the figures shown in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 are only examples. In fact, as long as the transconductance amplifier can charge and discharge to the compensation circuit when the power switch M1 is turned on, stop charging and discharging to the compensation circuit when the power switch M1 is turned off. Just charge and discharge.

参考图5,图5示出了图3和图4所示开关电源的工作信号波形图。功率开关M1导通时,假设流经输出电容C1、输出端Vout的平均电值为Iout1;功率开关M1关断时,假设流经输出电容C1、输出端Vout的平均电流值为Iout2。当电路处于电感电流连续模式,Iout1和Iout2应当相同,因此本实用新型中通过控制Iout1,相应地控制了整个开关周期的输出电流。Referring to FIG. 5 , FIG. 5 shows a working signal waveform diagram of the switching power supply shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 . When the power switch M1 is turned on, it is assumed that the average current value flowing through the output capacitor C1 and the output terminal Vout is Iout1; when the power switch M1 is turned off, it is assumed that the average current value flowing through the output capacitor C1 and the output terminal Vout is Iout2. When the circuit is in the continuous mode of the inductor current, Iout1 and Iout2 should be the same, so in the present invention, by controlling Iout1, the output current of the entire switching cycle is correspondingly controlled.

在电感电流处于连续模式下,假设输出电流Iout的电流纹波为Ib-Ia,其中Ib为峰值电流,Ia为最小电流,有Ib大于Vr1/Rcs,又有Vr2/Rcs=(Ib+Ia)/2,显然有Vr2/Rcs=(Ib+Ia)/2>Ib/2>Vr1/(2*Rcs),也即可以得到Vr2>1/2*Vr1。因此,本实施例中用作峰值电流比较点的第一基准电压Vr1要小于2倍的用作平均电流控制点的第二基准电压Vr2,以保证电路工作在电流连续模式。When the inductor current is in continuous mode, assume that the current ripple of the output current Iout is Ib-Ia, where Ib is the peak current, Ia is the minimum current, some Ib is greater than Vr1/Rcs, and Vr2/Rcs=(Ib+Ia) /2, obviously Vr2/Rcs=(Ib+Ia)/2>Ib/2>Vr1/(2*Rcs), that is, Vr2>1/2*Vr1 can be obtained. Therefore, the first reference voltage Vr1 used as the peak current comparison point in this embodiment is smaller than twice the second reference voltage Vr2 used as the average current control point to ensure that the circuit works in the current continuous mode.

图6示出了本实施例采用的跨导放大器的具体电路结构,主要包括:电流镜61、电流镜62、电流镜63、三极管Q1、三极管Q2、电阻R1、电阻R2以及电流源I0。6 shows the specific circuit structure of the transconductance amplifier used in this embodiment, mainly including: current mirror 61, current mirror 62, current mirror 63, transistor Q1, transistor Q2, resistor R1, resistor R2 and current source I0.

其中,电流镜61包括MOS晶体管M3和MOS晶体管M7,电流镜62包括MOS晶体管M2和MOS晶体管M4,电流镜63包括MOS晶体管M5和M6。采样电压Vcs输入至三极管Q1的基极,第二基准电压Vr2输入至三极管Q2的基极。假设MOS晶体管M2到MOS晶体管M4的镜像电流比为K2,MOS晶体管M7经由MOS晶体管M3、M5到MOS晶体管M6的镜像比为K1,则流经MOS晶体管M4的电流I4为:I4=K2·I2,流经MOS晶体管M6的电流I6为:I6=K1·I1。整个跨导放大器的输出电流Icomp为:Wherein, the current mirror 61 includes MOS transistors M3 and MOS transistors M7 , the current mirror 62 includes MOS transistors M2 and MOS transistors M4 , and the current mirror 63 includes MOS transistors M5 and M6 . The sampling voltage Vcs is input to the base of the transistor Q1, and the second reference voltage Vr2 is input to the base of the transistor Q2. Assuming that the mirror current ratio of MOS transistor M2 to MOS transistor M4 is K2, and the mirror ratio of MOS transistor M7 to MOS transistor M6 via MOS transistors M3 and M5 is K1, then the current I4 flowing through MOS transistor M4 is: I 4 =K 2 ·I 2 , the current I6 flowing through the MOS transistor M6 is: I 6 =K 1 ·I 1 . The output current Icomp of the entire transconductance amplifier is:

Icomp=I4-I6=K2·I2-K1·I1 I comp =I 4 -I 6 =K 2 ·I 2 -K 1 ·I 1

一般要求K1=K2=K,R1=R2=R,电流源I0提供的电流I0足够大,保证I1和I2都大于零,则有以下关系成立:It is generally required that K1=K2=K, R1=R2=R, and the current I 0 provided by the current source I 0 is large enough to ensure that both I1 and I2 are greater than zero, then the following relationship is established:

II compcomp == KK VV rlrl -- VV cscs RR

即跨导Gm为:That is, the transconductance Gm is:

GmG m == II compcomp VV aa -- VV reflrefl == -- KK RR

在电路稳定以后,输出电流Icomp的电流平均值Icompavg为零,即After the circuit stabilizes, the current average value Icompavg of the output current Icomp is zero, that is

Icompavg=0I compavg =0

因此有输入的采样电压Vcs的平均值与第二基准电压Vr2的平均值相同,采样电压Vcs的平均值除以采样电阻Rcs的电阻值就是开关电源输出电流的平均值,由此开关电源的输出电流的电流值为Vr2/Rcs。Therefore, the average value of the input sampling voltage Vcs is the same as the average value of the second reference voltage Vr2, and the average value of the sampling voltage Vcs divided by the resistance value of the sampling resistor Rcs is the average value of the output current of the switching power supply, thus the output of the switching power supply The current value of the current is Vr2/Rcs.
