New description: [New technical field] This creation provides a voltage regulating circuit, especially a voltage regulating circuit that avoids sudden drop of input voltage. [Prior Art] Generally, the voltage regulating circuit is connected in series between the input voltage signal and the output voltage signal, and functions like a voltage source for converting the input voltage signal into an output voltage signal and providing an output voltage signal. A stable voltage level. Please refer to Fig. 1, which is a circuit diagram of a conventional voltage regulator 10A. The voltage regulator 100 includes a transistor Q1, a feedback circuit 1〇2, an error amplifier OP1, and a uniformity circuit 110. The transistor Q1 can be an N-type field effect transistor (N-MOSFET) or a P-type field effect. A transistor (p_M〇SFET) or a dual-loaded junction transistor (BJT). In the first diagram, the transistor Qj is a p-type field effect transistor (P_MOSFET), and the source and the drain are respectively coupled to the input voltage signal Vin and the output voltage signal Vout, that is, the transistor Q1 is connected in series. Between the input voltage signal Vin and the output voltage signal v〇ut, in addition, the transistor ... is not in the feedback circuit 102, and the feedback circuit of the resistors Ri and R2 causes the feedback circuit to be generated once. The voltage signal is sent, and the feedback voltage signal is sent to the non-inverting input terminal of the error amplifier 0P1; in addition, for the error amplifier OP1, the non-inverting input terminal is secreted by the shouting voltage Wei Vfb, and the anti-her person is wealthy. Test voltage signal vref and another - start pin connection function circuit 11〇, wherein the enable circuit (10) 5 M3 02193 controls whether the control error amplifier OP1 starts to operate according to a start control signal εν, that is, controls the voltage regulation Whether the device 1 is enabled, for example, if the startup control signal EN is turned to a high logic level by a low logic level, 致, the enable circuit 110 will drive the error amplifier OP1 to start operating. The output of the error amplifier 〇p]l is coupled to the gate of the transistor Q1, thereby controlling the voltage signal to control the on-resistance of the transistor Q1; since the error amplifier OP1 functions as an error amplifier in the entire circuit, In other words, the control voltage signal will react back to the difference between the voltage signal and the reference voltage signal Vref to adjust the on-resistance of the transistor Qi, so that the output voltage signal v〇ut can be stabilized and the following is satisfied. Equation (1): — * ^ Equation (1) That is, the voltage regulator 100 achieves the purpose of stably generating the output voltage signal V〇ut-load 104 by the above equation. In addition, in the figure, Cin and c(10) represent the input capacitance and the output capacitance, respectively, for respectively stabilizing the input voltage signal Vin and the output voltage 峨vout. Since its operation and function are well known in the industry, no additional capital is provided. Said. σ月乡..., Fig. 2' Fig. 2 is a diagram showing the voltage regulation circuit 1A shown in Fig. 1. Assume that the input voltage signal Vin is 3.3 volts, the voltage is adjusted, that is, the reference voltage signal mu volt of the circuit 1〇0, and the required voltage signal vQUt is 2.5 volts, so, according to the above parameters The resistance of R2 is determined to form the desired feedback circuit (10). As shown in Figure 2, if the start control signal recording logic level is changed to the high logic level 6 M302193 bit at time T1, the voltage adjustment circuit will start to operate, which makes the reference voltage signal ^ need to be provided to other The line is used, so the reference voltage signal I needs to reach the preset value U5 volt very quickly. In addition, the output voltage of the output voltage signal v(10) is 0 volts at the time, so the feedback 峨% is also Q volt, and the result is an error amplifier. The output voltage of on is low voltage and the transistor is cut in the conduction region; at this time, the input voltage signal Vin (corresponding to a turn-in current signal D through the on-resistance of the transistor W charges the output capacitor c〇ut' due to the small on-resistance (generally about #毫一姆) The instantaneous current value of the input voltage machine Vin will be very large and reach the current limit Ilimit of the transistor Q1. Further, if the voltage regulation circuit is applied to a handheld product (such as a mobile phone, Digital camera, etc.), its input is usually secret to the battery '(4) The internal battery also has its internal resistance, therefore, this - instantaneous large current will cause the loss of η " Vln Voltage sag (v〇ltagedr〇p); in addition, if the sudden drop of the input voltage signal is too serious, it may also affect other systems connected to the battery to produce erroneous operation' and the axis to avoid this severe voltage drop phenomenon The input capacitance Cin of a larger capacitance value can be lightly connected to the wheel input end of the voltage adjustment circuit 100, but in order to use the input capacitance Cin having a larger capacitance value, the wire must be larger and more improved. Overall cost. This is an obvious new content for handheld products. One of the main purposes of this creation is to provide a voltage regulation circuit 1 that avoids input voltage dips and can have a smaller peach area. The problem mentioned above is less. M302193 According to the scope of the patent application of the present invention, a voltage regulating circuit is disclosed for generating an output voltage signal according to an input voltage signal. The voltage regulating circuit comprises a soft start circuit , for providing a soft start voltage signal; and a voltage approximator, consuming the soft start circuit, the input voltage signal and a reference voltage signal The method is configured to selectively compare the soft start voltage signal with one of the reference voltage signals and the output voltage signal corresponding to the output power signal to generate the output voltage signal according to the input voltage Φ signal. Please refer to FIG. 3, which is a circuit diagram of an embodiment of the present voltage regulating circuit 3A. As shown in FIG. 3, the voltage regulating circuit 3 includes a voltage regulator 302 and a soft A soft start circuit 304, wherein the voltage regulator 302 includes a transistor Q, a feedback circuit 303, a uniformity circuit 310, and an error amplification Is 0P2 'where the transistor Q1, the feedback circuit 303, and the enabler The structure and function of the circuit 310 are the same as those of the transistor qi, the feedback circuit 1〇2 and the enabling circuit 110 described in FIG. 1, and therefore will not be described here. Further, in FIG. 3, Cin and Cm respectively represent The input capacitor and the output capacitor are used to stabilize the input voltage signal Vin and the output voltage signal Vout respectively. Since its operation and function are well known in the industry, it will not be described here. The error amplifier OP2 is an error amplifier having three inputs. The non-inverting input is coupled to the feedback voltage signal Vfb, and the two inverting inputs are respectively coupled to the soft start voltage signal vss and the reference voltage signal vref. In this embodiment, after the voltage regulating circuit 300 is started, the error amplifier OP2 can selectively use M302193 to use the soft start voltage signal Vss or the reference voltage signal U. The operating principle of the voltage regulator 3〇2 is as shown in FIG. The operating principle of the voltage regulator 100 is similar. The difference is that the voltage regulator 302 can select one of the soft start voltage signal vss or the reference voltage signal vrefs to control the output voltage signal L and the input voltage signal Vin. Therefore, this embodiment is Defining a predetermined range, and when the voltage difference between the soft start voltage signal V% and the reference voltage tiger vref falls within the predetermined range (that is, whether the soft start voltage is less than or exceeds the reference voltage signal D, the predetermined range is usually one It is similar to the volts, that is, the soft-start voltage signal Vss is expected to be very close to the reference voltage vVref, the voltage regulating circuit 3 The switch from the soft start voltage signal Vss to the reference voltage signal vref to benefit the reference voltage signal Vref to control the output voltage to the output of the load 05 is vout. Please note that the predetermined range can be sighed according to the design requirements. For example, in one embodiment of the present invention, when the soft-start voltage signal VSS is equal to the reference voltage signal ^, the error amplifier is switched from the soft-start voltage signal vss to the reference voltage signal Vref. In addition, the error amplifier (10) _ 1 Select [small light work can be realized by using a multiplexer (mulle), however, any means of achieving selective light connection is the standard mouthpiece of the original error amplifier 0P2. The soft start circuit 3〇4 further includes a power flow U, a capacitor-reset transistor Q2, and a reset control circuit. According to one of the creations, the f source current Iss_ provides a reference current, (4) & is used as charge and discharge, so when the reset transistor is not turned on, the power supply will charge the capacitor L. Therefore, the voltage level of the soft-start voltage signal Vss will gradually be grounded (also That is, 0 volts) and increase. If the reset transistor Q2 is turned on, the power flow U cannot be charged to the capacitor Css and the capacitor & will begin to discharge via the reset transistor, so the soft start voltage is reduced by Vss. The electric freshener gradually reduces the Langqixia level. It is equal to the ground potential (that is, 0 volts). In addition, the reset control circuit 3〇6 is used to determine whether the reset transistor Q2 is turned on, in this embodiment, In order to break the soft-start voltage signal Vss corresponding to the ground potential every time the voltage regulating circuit 3 starts, the ON condition of the reset transistor Q2 is as follows: * · . (1) The start control signal EN is high logic The level shifts to a low logic level to turn off the operation of the error amplifier OP2; or (2) the error amplifier OP2 has been switched from the soft start voltage signal Vss to the reference voltage signal Vrcf. If the start control signal EN transitions from a high logic level to a low logic level before the error amplifier OP2 is switched from the soft start voltage signal Vss to the reference voltage signal Vref, and the operation of the error amplifier ΟΡ2 is turned off, the condition (1) ensures The soft start voltage signal Vss is reset before the next voltage adjustment circuit 300 is started; on the other hand, when the error amplifier OP2 has been switched from the soft start voltage signal Vss to the reference voltage signal Vref, the soft start voltage signal Vss is no longer It is used by the error amplifier OP2, so the reset control circuit 306 can allow the reset transistor Q2 to be turned on to reset the soft-start voltage signal Vss. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, when the error amplifier OP2 is driven by the soft-start voltage signal When Vss is switched to the reference voltage signal Vref, the reset control circuit 306 immediately turns on the reset transistor Q2. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. In addition, when the startup control signal EN transitions from the low logic level to the high logic level, that is, when the voltage regulation circuit M302193 begins to start, the reset control circuit 3〇6 controls the reset transistor (3) to enter the non-conduction state. . HU# refers to the operation timing chart of the voltage adjustment circuit 300 shown in Fig. 4''4'. Assume that the input of the electric signal is in volts. In addition, the reference electric ship number U supplied to the voltage contact is 丨ΜVot and the required wheel voltage reading V〇ut is Μvolt, so it can be based on the above The parameters determine the resistance of the φ-out resistors R1, R2 to form the desired feedback circuit 3〇3. If the control register EN is switched from the low logic level to the high level in time, the voltage domain modulator 300 starts to operate, wherein the reference voltage signal 1 is used by other circuits that need to be supplied, so the reference voltage signal I It is necessary to reach 125 volts very quickly. In addition, it can be seen from the above-mentioned condition of resetting the transistor Q2 that the reset control circuit 3〇6 will be turned on before time ( (that is, before the voltage tuning circuit 3 is started). The transistor Q2' is placed and the capacitor Css is discharged from the reset transistor until the voltage level of the soft-start voltage signal #Vss is 〇V, so the initial voltage level of the soft-start voltage signal % is 〇V at time τ; In addition, since the voltage regulating circuit 300' is activated at time 所以, the voltage level of the feedback voltage signal ^ is 〇V at time T1. At this time, the reset control circuit 3〇6 controls the reset transistor Q2 to be non-conductive. The current source iss starts charging the capacitor css' and the voltage level of the soft-start voltage signal 乂s is gradually increased by 0 volts with the charging time. In one embodiment of this creation, when the soft-start voltage is Vss is equal to the reference signal Vfef (when the predetermined range is (9), the error amplifier OP2 will be switched from the soft start voltage signal % to the reference voltage signal Vref. Therefore, as shown in Fig. 4, the soft start is performed at time Τ2. The voltage signal M3 02193 vss is equal to the reference voltage 峨Vref. At this time, the wheel power-off (4) also climbs linearly to 2.5 volts.
