Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a PWM switching regulator control circuit with soft start function. Background technique
[0002] In order to suppress the inrush current or the overshoot of the output voltage when the power is turned on, some PWM switching regulator control circuits provide a soft-start function. Refer to Figure 2 and image 3 , the operation of the conventional soft-start function will be described sequentially from when no supply voltage is present at all.
[0003] First, when the power supply is connected to the PWM switching regulator control circuit, the output voltage VOUT rises from 0V, the current flows from the constant current source 206 into the capacitor 207, and the gate voltage of the n-channel MOS transistor 204 gradually rises. As a result, since the voltage VREF of the reference voltage 203 slowly rises the voltage at the non-inverting input terminal of the error amplifier 208, the rush current and the overshoot of the outpu...
