Problems solved by technology

But these two modes have an obvious disadvantage: the switching frequency of the power tube changes with the change of the load, which limits its application in some fields, such as the RF (radio frequency) field

Abstract

The present invention relates to integrated circuit technology, in particular to a load self-adaptive segmented driving circuit, and its application in a step-down voltage stabilizing circuit (also called a BUCK circuit). The invention discloses an adaptive section driving DC-DC converter. The present invention uses m PMOS power tubes and NMOS power tubes connected in parallel to form a switching conversion circuit, and drives different numbers of power tubes for switching conversion according to different load currents. It reduces the power of the power tube, thereby reducing the driving loss and switching loss under light load conditions. The invention changes the drive mode of the power tube, and changes the number of power tubes turned on by detecting the change of the load current, thereby minimizing the sum of the conduction loss and the driving loss of the power tube, thereby improving the efficiency of the DC-DC converter, especially Efficiency under light load. The invention is particularly suitable for use in a step-down voltage stabilizing circuit.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to integrated circuit technology, in particular to a load self-adaptive segmented driving circuit, and its application in a step-down voltage stabilizing circuit (also called a BUCK circuit). Background technique [0002] The integrated step-down voltage converter (BUCK) circuit structure is as figure 1 As shown, it includes an energy conversion unit 1 , a drive unit 2 and a feedback control unit 3 . The energy conversion unit 1 usually includes a switch conversion circuit composed of two power transistors, a PMOS (P-channel metal oxide semiconductor) power transistor and an NMOS (N-channel metal oxide semiconductor) power transistor, figure 1 are marked as PMOS and NMOS respectively. Under the control of the output signal of the drive unit 2, the PMOS power transistor and the NMOS power transistor work in the switching state, and convert the input high-voltage direct current Vdd into a square wave signal output, and fin...
