Abstract

The invention provides a zero-current detecting circuit. The zero-current detecting circuit comprises a first current mirror coupled to two transistors, the first transistor is coupled to a grounding end through a first resistor, and the second transistor is coupled to a detection node through a second resistor. The output of the first transistor is coupled to the negative input end of a first comparator, and the output of the second transistor is coupled to the positive input end of the first comparator. When the voltage level of the positive input end of the first comparator is greater than the voltage level of the negative input end of the first comparator, the first comparator outputs a predetermined signal to indicate appearance of zero currents of the detection node.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a zero current detection circuit and a DC converter using the zero current detection circuit. Background technique [0002] DC converters with upper and lower bridge switches are often used to power CPUs, memory, etc. When the DC converter works in the discontinuous conduction mode (Discontinuous Conduction Mode, DCM), a reverse current is generated due to the effect of the inductance, and the reverse current cannot contribute to the output current and consumes power. Contents of the invention [0003] In view of this, it is necessary to provide a DC converter using a zero current detection circuit to detect and suppress reverse current. [0004] A zero current detection circuit, comprising: [0005] a bias current source; [0006] a current mirror including an input terminal, a first output terminal, a second output terminal and a third output terminal, wherein the input terminal is coupled to the bias current source; ...
