Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of electronic circuits, and in particular relates to an oscillator circuit for a PWM controller. Background Art
[0002] Oscillator circuits are key electronic circuits that generate periodic electrical signals (such as sine waves, square waves, or pulse waves) and are widely used in communications, consumer electronics, industrial control, and instrumentation. In communications systems, oscillators generate carrier signals to ensure the stability of wireless transmission. In consumer electronics (such as smartphones and IoT devices), they provide a reference frequency for clock circuits, ensuring the synchronous operation of processors and sensors. In industrial control, oscillators drive PWM controllers to regulate motor speed and power conversion efficiency. In precision instruments (such as medical equipment and test instruments), high-frequency, low-noise oscillators are central to achieving high-precision measurements.
[0003] The current PWM controller oscillator industry is undergoing a technological transition. While traditional RC charging and discharging and ring oscillator architectures remain mainstream, they face new challenges in high frequency, low power consumption, and strong anti-interference. International giants maintain their lead through digital DCO and intelligent spread spectrum technology, while domestic manufacturers are accelerating import substitution in the mid- and low-end markets. With the high-frequency trend brought about by the popularization of GaN / SiC power devices and the stringent high-reliability requirements of automotive electronics and industrial power supplies, the industry urgently needs to break through key technical bottlenecks such as high-precision temperature compensation, ultra-low static power consumption (<10μA), and adaptive EMI suppression while maintaining cost advantages. This will drive the evolution of oscillator architecture towards a mixed-signal "analog core + digital calibration + intelligent control" to meet the differentiated needs of emerging markets such as 5G power supplies and new energy vehicles.
[0004] In existing technology, the oscillator circuit of a PWM controller typically uses an RC charge-discharge or ring oscillator design. Its core function is to generate a stable frequency signal to set the PWM switching period. The following is a brief description of two mainstream technical solutions: ① The first technical solution uses an RC charge-discharge oscillator. The charge and discharge processes of resistor R and capacitor C generate a triangular or sawtooth wave, which, in conjunction with a comparator, generates the clock signal required for PWM. For example, the key components of a typical circuit include a timing resistor RT and capacitor CT, which determine the frequency, and a comparator that compares the triangular wave with a reference voltage to output a square-wave clock. During the charging phase, a current source charges the capacitor through the resistor, causing the voltage to rise linearly. During the discharging phase, when the capacitor voltage reaches an upper threshold, an internal switch, such as a MOS transistor, turns on, rapidly discharging the capacitor to a lower threshold, and the cycle repeats. Advantages of this circuit include a simple structure, low cost, and flexible frequency adjustment via the RC value. Disadvantages include poor frequency stability due to temperature and component accuracy, and significant nonlinear charge and discharge errors at high frequencies. Another technical solution uses a ring oscillator; an odd number of inverter stages (such as three or five) form a feedback loop, generating a square wave through gate-delayed self-oscillation. Key components of a typical circuit include a CMOS inverter chain as the basic oscillation unit and a frequency modulation control circuit, such as a varactor diode or current source. Each inverter stage introduces a delay td, resulting in a total period T = 2 × n × td (n is the number of stages). The frequency can be adjusted by controlling the delay VCD voltage, forming a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO). Advantages of this circuit: Suitable for integrated circuit (IC) design, no external RC required; excellent high-frequency performance (up to MHz); Disadvantages: Frequency is significantly affected by process variations and power supply noise; Area / power consumption is high for low-frequency applications.
[0005] In summary, the PWM controller in the prior art has the following main defects: (1) Weak anti-interference ability: Both traditional solutions are susceptible to external noise (such as power supply ripple and coupling interference). High-frequency EMI (such as di / dt noise of the switching power supply) may be coupled to the RC loop through parasitic capacitance, causing the charge and discharge waveforms to be distorted and destroying the linearity of the PWM duty cycle.
[0006] (2) Slow dynamic regulation response: When adjusting the frequency in real time (such as variable frequency control), the charging and discharging inertia of the RC circuit or the phase-locking delay of the ring oscillator will cause a response lag.
[0007] (3) Poor frequency stability: The values of resistors and capacitors in traditional structures change with temperature (such as the capacitance-temperature characteristics of ceramic capacitors and the TCR of resistors), resulting in oscillation frequency drift.
[0008] (4) Poor frequency adjustability: When the traditional structure oscillator is adjusted over a wide range, the frequency change rate is inconsistent, requiring table lookup or digital compensation, which increases costs.
[0009] (5) High power consumption: Dynamic power consumption is linearly related to frequency. The overall power consumption rises sharply in high-frequency applications. The switching loss is significant. The short-circuit current and gate drive loss during the MOS tube switching process increase with increasing frequency. Summary of the Invention
[0010] The present invention aims to provide an oscillator circuit and a charge pump circuit for a PWM controller. The present invention dynamically adjusts the PWM frequency to match the switching frequency with the load demand, reduces the number of invalid switches, and greatly reduces power consumption. By using constant current charging and discharging instead of resistors, di / dt noise is reduced and frequency stability is improved. The present invention implements a spread spectrum function through frequency jittering or intermittent modulation to slightly modulate the oscillator frequency and disperse EMI energy over a wider frequency band, thereby reducing peak noise.

[0034] As a further explanation of the embodiment of the present invention, a charge-discharge constant current source circuit is also included. The charge-discharge constant current source circuit generates a current source I'ref by mirroring the current mirror.
[0035] The charge and discharge constant current source circuit includes: PMOS transistors P3-P4, NMOS transistors N2-N3, an operational amplifier OP, a temperature compensation resistor r, and a resistor RI; the source of the PMOS transistor P3 is connected to the power supply X2_D, the gate and drain of the PMOS transistor P3 are connected to the source of the PMOS transistor P4, the gate and drain of the PMOS transistor P4 are connected to the drain of the NMOS transistor N2, the gate of the NMOS transistor N2 is connected to the output end of the operational amplifier OP and the gate of the NMOS transistor N3, the source of the NMOS transistor N2 is connected to the source end of the NMOS transistor N3, one end of the temperature compensation resistor r, and the inverting input end of the operational amplifier OP, the non-inverting input end of the operational amplifier OP is connected to the reference voltage Vref, the other end of the temperature compensation resistor r is connected to the grounded resistor RI, and the drain of the NMOS transistor N3 is connected to the current source Iref connected to the power supply X2_D.
[0036] The gate and drain of the PMOS transistor P4 generate a current source Iref5 , the ratio of the current source Iref5 to the current source Iref is Iref5:Iref=1:14.85, and the resistor RI=56KΩ.
[0037] It also includes the following working principles: In the above-mentioned charge and discharge constant current source circuit, an external LDO circuit generates a current source Iref, where Iref = Vref / (RI+r). The current source Iref is copied by a current mirror to obtain a current source I'ref. Then, the current source I'ref is combined with the frequency jittering module to generate a current source Iref0. The current source Iref0 then passes through a current mirror to generate a charge and discharge current.
[0038] The oscillator circuit of the present invention includes the following two operating modes: Normal operating mode: PWM logic control signal X840_SNN is high, data selector MUX selects output signal X1225_Y as signal P872_G. If signal X41_YN is high, transmission gate is closed, current source Iref3 charges capacitor C2, and when signal X41_YN is low, transmission gate is opened, capacitor C2 is discharged until voltage across capacitor C2 is equal to voltage VP44_S. At this time, regardless of whether transmission gate is open or not, voltage VN1_G and voltage VP44_S are always greater than voltage VP45_S. Then the output of comparator COM3 is always high, that is, R input of RS trigger RS2 is always low. At this time, the output of RS trigger RS2 depends only on its S input. When the circuit is just powered on, the voltage VN4_G is at a low level, and the current source Iref1 starts to charge the capacitor C1. When the voltage VN4_G is less than the voltage VL, the output of the RS trigger RS1 is at a low level, and the S-terminal input of the RS trigger RS2 is at a high level. At this time, the RS trigger RS2 outputs a low level.
[0039] When the voltage VL<VN4_G<VH, the RS trigger RS1 outputs a low level, then the S-terminal input of the RS trigger RS2 is a high level, and at this time the RS trigger RS2 outputs a low level, and this state will be maintained until the voltage VN4_G=VH; when the voltage VN4_G>VH, the RS trigger RS1 outputs a high level, then the S-terminal input of the RS trigger RS2 is a low level, and at this time the RS trigger RS2 outputs a high level; and this cycle repeats.
[0040] Hiccup mode: The primary power loss in a switching power supply controller at light or no load comes from switching losses, which are proportional to the PWM frequency. To meet green mode requirements, the chip achieves this by reducing the switching frequency or intermittently switching on and off.
[0041] In this state, the PWM logic control signal X840_SNN is low, and the data selector MUX selects the output signal X1225_Y as signal R720_MINUS. The discharge process in hiccup mode is the same as in normal operation. However, when voltage VN4_G drops below voltage VL, current source Iref1 does not immediately begin charging capacitor C1. Instead, it waits until capacitor C2 is charged to voltage VN1_G > VP45_S, comparator COM3 outputs a high level, and the R input of RS flip-flop RS2 is low. Only then does current source Iref1 begin charging capacitor C1.
[0042] To better achieve EMI characteristics, a frequency dithering function is set inside the chip to make the actual PWM frequency dither within the set value range. The four control signals X1_Q to X4_Q from the external divider control the shutdown of the switches D1 to D4, thereby periodically changing the charge and discharge current.
[0043] In summary, the present invention designs an oscillator module composed of a feedback loop and a current detection circuit to detect the load current / voltage in real time and dynamically adjust the PWM frequency, and cooperates with the frequency jitter module and the hiccup module to reduce electromagnetic interference EMI and improve system efficiency; by adopting a high-precision (Iref5: Iref=1:14.85) temperature-compensated current mirror charge and discharge constant current source circuit, it has the function of supporting a wide range of current regulation such as 1μA~1mA and a temperature drift accuracy within ±1%.
