Problems solved by technology

For lower output voltages, if the resistance of the gold wire in the package remains the same, its voltage drop will cause more relative voltage drop and worse load regulation
Of course, gold wire packages with larger diameters can also be used, but this will increase the packaging cost, and some packages do not support gold wires with other diameters

Embodiment Construction

[0041] In the present invention a low dropout voltage regulator is proposed which has very low load regulation. In the low-dropout voltage regulator of the present invention, the output voltage of the output transistor MPass is increased to make up for the resistance caused by the packaged gold wire by drawing a replica current proportional to the load current from a specific node in the voltage divider circuit. The impact of the voltage drop, which in turn reduces the load regulation rate of the final output voltage of the low dropout voltage regulator.

[0042] figure 2 A first embodiment of the low dropout voltage regulator of the present invention is shown. The low dropout voltage regulator includes an output transistor MPass, a voltage divider circuit, a current replica circuit and an error amplifier circuit EA. The output transistor MPass receives the input voltage VCC and generates an output voltage Vo according to the control of the error amplifier. The voltage div...

Abstract

The invention discloses a low-dropout voltage regulator, including an error amplifier, an output tube and a feedback circuit; wherein, the output tube receives an input voltage and generates an output voltage under the control of the error amplifier; the feedback circuit provides a feedback voltage which can reflect the output voltage; the error amplifier controls the output tube according to the difference value between a reference voltage and the feedback voltage. The output voltage provides a voltage for loading by a wire resistance. The low-dropout voltage regulator further includes a current copy circuit which can generate a copy current which is in proportion to the current of the output tube, the copy current is led out from the feedback circuit to swig up the output voltage so as to make up the voltage drop of a load current on the wire resistance. Therefore, the load regulation rate of the low-dropout voltage regulator is lowered.
