Abstract

A switching regulator controller for a buck switching regulator incorporates a multi-mode adaptive modulator configured to automatically select between a first operation mode and a second operation mode as a function of the output voltage being generated. In one embodiment, the switching regulator controller compares the output voltage to a comparator reference voltage and is configured to operate in a selected operation mode based on the output voltage. In this manner, a single switching regulator controller can be used in multiple instances of an electronic system to supply circuitry that may have different operational requirements. In one embodiment, the switching regulator controller is configured to operation in a PWM / PFM mode and a PWM mode as a function of the output voltage, which indicates the circuit application to which the switch regulator controller is used to supply.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of integrated circuits, in particular to a switching regulator with an adaptive PWM / PFM modulator. Background technique [0002] Many consumer electronics products, such as TV set-top boxes and remote control devices, incorporate integrated circuits like electronic systems. These electronic systems typically include integrated circuits forming the core digital logic and integrated circuits forming the input / output (I / O) interface circuits. Traditional electronic systems utilize multiple DC-DC converters to convert the main bus voltage from the mains supply system to the voltage or voltages required to drive these integrated circuits. [0003] A switch-mode power supply or switching regulator, also known as a DC-DC converter, is used to convert an input voltage source to a desired output voltage at a voltage level suitable for integrated circuits in electronic systems. For example, the 12V voltage source of the elect...
