[0050] To help better understand the solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application, before introducing the methods provided by the embodiments of the present application, the application scenarios of the solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be introduced first.

[0051] The bandgap reference circuit (BANDGAP) is a basic circuit in analog circuits and is used to generate a reference voltage that does not change with the power supply voltage and temperature. The index for measuring the stability of the reference voltage generated by the bandgap reference circuit under the change of the power supply voltage is the power supply rejection ratio (PSRR). The smaller the power supply rejection ratio, the better the stability of the reference voltage of the circuit under the change of the power supply voltage.

[0052] See Figure 1 , this figure is a schematic structural diagram of a bandgap reference circuit. As Figure 1 shown, in this bandgap reference circuit, the power supply voltage is connected to the bandgap reference module, the bandgap reference module is connected to the low-dropout linear voltage regulator module, and the low-dropout linear voltage regulator module outputs the reference voltage. See Figure 2, This figure is a PSRR schematic diagram of the reference voltage of a bandgap reference circuit. As Figure 2 shown, the power supply voltage is connected to the bandgap reference module (Bandgap, BG), BG is connected to the low dropout regulator module (Lowdropout regulator, LDO), the LDO outputs the reference voltage Vout, and the BG outputs the voltage VBG. The PSRR of the output VBG of BG is equal to the PSRR of BG, which is a.

[0053] With the wide application of portable electronic products, the requirements for chip accuracy are getting higher and higher. In order to improve the PSRR of the bandgap reference circuit, additional enhancement circuits and bias circuits need to be added to the bandgap reference circuit. These additional circuits not only increase the complexity of the entire bandgap reference circuit, but also generate additional power consumption during use, increasing the production cost and usage cost of the bandgap reference circuit.

[0054] To solve the above technical problems, an embodiment of the present application provides a power supply circuit, which includes: a low dropout regulator module and a bandgap reference module. The low dropout regulator module is used to output an output voltage according to the reference voltage output by the bandgap reference module; the bandgap reference module is used to adjust the reference voltage output by itself according to the output voltage output by the low dropout regulator module.

[0055] It can be seen from this that in the power supply circuit provided by the present application, the input end of the low dropout regulator module is connected to the output end of the low dropout regulator module through the bandgap reference module, forming a feedback circuit. In this way, the reference voltage in the technical solution of the present application is VBG. The PSRR of VBG = ab / (1 - a / β). Since a is much smaller than 1, the PSRR is approximately ab. And since b is less than 1, the PSRR (ab) of the reference voltage in the solution provided by the present application is less than the PSRR (a) in the traditional solution. At the same time, since the solution provided by the present application does not add additional enhancement circuits or bias circuits, it will not increase the production cost and usage cost of the bandgap reference circuit.

[0056] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present application more obvious and understandable, the following further details the embodiments of the present application in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0057] See Figure 3 , This figure is a schematic diagram of the structure of a power supply circuit provided by an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 3 shown, the power supply circuit provided by an embodiment of the present application includes: a low dropout regulator module 100 and a bandgap reference module 200.

[0058] The low dropout regulator module 100 is used to output an output voltage according to the reference voltage output by the bandgap reference module.

[0059] The bandgap reference module 200 is used to adjust the reference voltage output by itself according to the output voltage output by the low dropout linear regulator module.

[0060] See Figure 4 , which is a PSRR schematic diagram of a power supply circuit provided by an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 4 shown, in the embodiment of the present application, the reference voltage VBG output by BG is the reference voltage, and the reference voltage is often used to provide a stable calibration voltage. The PSRR of the output VBG of BG is PSRR = ab / (1 - a / β). Since a is much smaller than 1, the PSRR is approximately ab. And since b is less than 1, the PSRR (ab) of the reference voltage in the solution provided by the present application is less than Figure 2 the PSRR (a) in

[0061] It should be noted that the solution provided by the embodiment of the present application can not only reduce the PSRR of the reference voltage VBG provided by the power supply circuit, but also reduce the PSRR of the output voltage Vout provided by the power supply circuit. In practical applications, the output voltage Vout is often used to provide voltage for the load.

[0062] As Figure 2 shown, the forward gain A of the LDO is much greater than 1, and the feedback coefficient β is less than 1. The reference voltage Vout output by the LDO = 1 / β * VBG. The PSRR of VBG is determined by the PSRR of BG and is a. Therefore, the PSRR of Vout in the traditional solution = a * A / (1 + βA) + b. Since A is much greater than 1, the PSRR of Vout can be approximated as a / β + b. As Figure 4 shown, the PSRR of Vout of the power supply circuit provided by the embodiment of the present application = b / (1 - a / β). Since a is much smaller than 1, the PSRR is approximately PSRR = b. Therefore, the PSSR (b) of Vout provided by the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application is less than Figure 2 the PSRR (a / β + b) of Vout in the traditional solution shown in

[0063] In the embodiment of the present application, considering that the LDO cannot be started before the output of BG is established, as a possible implementation manner, the first voltage judgment module. See Figure 5 , which is a schematic diagram of a power supply circuit structure provided by an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 5As shown in the figure, the power supply circuit provided by the embodiment of the present application may further include: a first voltage judgment module 300, configured to receive the power supply voltage and the reference voltage output by the bandgap reference module 200, and when the reference voltage is less than a preset voltage, output a first reference voltage according to the power supply voltage; a low dropout linear regulator module 100, specifically configured to output an output voltage according to the first reference voltage; the first voltage judgment module 300 is further configured to, when the reference voltage is greater than the preset voltage, output a second reference voltage according to the reference voltage; the low dropout linear regulator module 100 is further configured to output an output voltage according to the second reference voltage.

[0064] It can be understood that in the embodiment of the present application, a voltage is required to start the LDO before the reference output by BG is established. As a possible implementation manner, the first voltage judgment module can be used to judge whether the reference voltage output by BG is established. When it is judged that the reference voltage output by BG is not established, that is, when the reference voltage is less than the preset voltage, a first reference voltage is output through the power supply voltage, so that BG establishes an effective reference voltage. When it is judged that the establishment of the reference voltage output by BG is completed, that is, when the reference voltage is greater than the preset voltage, the output circuit of the first voltage judgment module is switched, so that the first voltage judgment module outputs a second reference voltage according to the reference voltage.

[0065] In the embodiment of the present application, as a possible implementation manner, the first voltage judgment module is specifically configured to, when the reference voltage is less than the preset voltage, output the preset voltage as the first reference voltage according to the power supply voltage. In the embodiment of the present application, as a possible implementation manner, the first voltage judgment module is specifically configured to, when the reference voltage is greater than the preset voltage, output the reference voltage as the second reference voltage.

[0066] See Figure 6 , this figure is a schematic structural diagram of a first voltage judgment module provided by the embodiment of the present application. As Figure 6 shown, in the embodiment of the present application, as a possible implementation manner, the first voltage judgment module includes: a preset voltage unit, a comparator and a two-way selector switch; the preset voltage unit is connected to the power supply voltage; two input ends of the comparator are respectively connected to the preset voltage unit and the reference voltage; the output end of the comparator controls the two-way selector switch; two input ends of the two-way selector switch are respectively connected to the preset voltage unit and the reference voltage; the output end of the two-way selector switch is connected to the low dropout linear regulator module; the preset voltage unit is configured to output a preset voltage according to the power supply voltage; the comparator is configured to control the two-way selector switch to output the larger value of the preset voltage and the reference voltage.

[0067] Further, as Figure 6As shown in the figure, the preset voltage unit provided by the embodiment of the present application includes: a reference switching switch P; the first voltage judgment module further includes a delay unit; the input end of the delay unit is connected to the output end of the comparator; the output end of the delay unit controls the reference switching switch P; the delay unit is configured to send a power supply switching signal to the power supply switching P switch after a first preset time when the output signal of the comparator indicates that the reference voltage is greater than the preset voltage; the reference switching switch P is configured to switch the power supply circuit in the preset voltage unit to reduce the preset voltage when the power supply switching signal is obtained.

[0068] Among them, as Figure 6 shown in the figure, the preset voltage unit provided by the embodiment of the present application further includes: a first diode Q and a second diode W; the first diode Q and the second diode W are connected in series in the forward direction between the power supply voltage and the ground wire; both ends of the reference switching switch P are respectively connected to the ground wire and the middle of the first diode Q and the second diode W; the reference switching switch P is specifically configured to close when the power supply switching signal is obtained.

[0069] In the embodiment of the present application, as a possible implementation manner, the power supply circuit may further include: a second voltage judgment module. The second voltage judgment module is configured to receive the power supply voltage and the reference voltage output by the bandgap reference module, and output a first reference voltage according to the power supply voltage when the time of receiving the power supply voltage is less than a second preset time; the low dropout linear voltage regulator module is specifically configured to output a reference voltage according to the first reference voltage; the second voltage judgment module is further configured to output a second reference voltage according to the reference voltage when the time of receiving the power supply voltage is greater than the second preset time; the low dropout linear voltage regulator module is further configured to output a reference voltage according to the second reference voltage.

[0070] Further, the second voltage judgment module may include: a preset voltage unit, a digital counter, and a two-way selector switch. The preset voltage unit is connected to the power supply voltage; two input ends of the digital counter are respectively connected to the preset voltage unit and the reference voltage; the output end of the digital counter controls the two-way selector switch; two input ends of the two-way selector switch are respectively connected to the preset voltage unit and the reference voltage; the output end of the two-way selector switch is connected to the low dropout linear voltage regulator module; the preset voltage unit is configured to output a preset voltage according to the power supply voltage; the digital counter is configured to control the two-way selector switch to output the reference voltage after a preset time when the reference voltage is greater than the preset voltage.

[0071] It can be understood that in the embodiment of the present application, it is possible to judge whether the reference voltage output by BG is established through the first voltage judgment module or the second voltage judgment module. Of course, the method provided by the embodiment of the present application can judge whether the reference voltage output by BG is established through other judgment modules, and the embodiment of the present application does not make any limitation here.

[0072] In summary, in the power supply circuit provided by the present application, the input end of the low dropout linear regulator module is connected to the output end of the low dropout linear regulator module through the bandgap reference module to form a feedback circuit. Thus, the reference voltage in the technical solution of the present application is VBG. The PSRR of VBG is ab / (1 - a / β). Since a is much smaller than 1, the PSRR is approximately ab. And since b is less than 1, the PSRR (ab) of the reference voltage in the solution provided by the present application is less than the PSRR (a) in the traditional solution. At the same time, since the solution provided by the present application does not add an additional enhancement circuit or bias circuit, it will not increase the production cost and usage cost of the bandgap reference circuit.
