Abstract

The invention provides a voltage drop reduction circuit and an operation method thereof. The voltage drop reduction circuit includes a voltage detector circuit, a driver controller circuit, and a PSH group. The voltage detector circuit is used to detect a voltage drop in the supply voltage received by the first load. The driver controller circuit is to drive the PSH group in response to detecting a voltage drop. Each PSH group includes at least one power switch, each power switch having an input for receiving a secondary voltage, a gate terminal for receiving a drive signal from a driver controller, and an output for pulling up a voltage drop in the supply voltage, where the secondary voltage is higher than the supply voltage. According to the invention, the voltage drop in the power supply voltage provided for the load can be reduced, and the power supply integrity of the equipment is improved, so that the overall performance of the equipment is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electronic circuit for managing the power supplied to a load. Background technique [0002] As process technologies continue to shrink in size, transistors on a die operate at lower voltages and higher current densities. The increase in processing speed and current charge means that the rate of change of current (ie, di / dt) may increase significantly at certain operating points. For example, a circuit (i.e., a load) draws a large current when awake, which causes the supply voltage to drop. A drop in supply voltage (called a voltage droop) can result in a loss of performance. [0003] In circuit design, power integrity aims to ensure that the required voltage and current are met from the source to the destination. Power integrity can be the deciding factor in the success or failure of an electronic product. One of the issues with power integrity is delivering a regulated voltage to the load (eg, processor) on the die. Po...
