[0002] Charge pump circuit is a commonly used power management circuit, which can realize the function of voltage boosting compared with linear voltage regulator, and has high efficiency and load current. Compared with switching power management circuit, charge pump circuit has small output voltage ripple, and can not use inductor, which has certain advantages. In the starting process of the conventional power management circuit, soft start circuit is often used, for example, by slowly increasing the reference voltage or current limiting method, the charging speed of the output capacitor is controlled to avoid the output current out of control and cause voltage or thermal damage to the chip.
[0003] For the charge pump circuit for powering the audio amplifier, the output power supply needs to be able to switch quickly with the input signal to avoid the voltage peak clipping distortion caused by the power supply failing to follow the input signal. Fast switching requires fast current injection, and while ensuring sufficient power input, the current and power for charging the output capacitor need to be controlled so that the power of each switch is not too large to avoid large current glitches on the parasitic inductance, which will damage the chip when the voltage peak exceeds the voltage withstanding of the device.

[0035] For better understanding, the following will be combined with Figures 1-6 The working principle of the adaptive charge pump circuit of the present application is described.
[0036] When the charge pump is in 1 times mode, the first switch signal S1 input to the gate of the first switch tube MP1, the second switch signal S2 input to the gate of the second switch tube MP2, and the fourth switch signal S4 input to the gate of the fourth switch tube MN4 are connected to low potential, and the third switch signal S3 input to the gate of the third switch tube MP3 is connected to high potential. At this time, the first switch tube MP1 and the second switch tube MP2 are both turned on, and the power supply voltage is connected to PVDD, so the voltage value of the output voltage PVDD is VDD.
[0037] When the charge pump is in 2 times mode, the switch tube has two switch phases: charging phase ph1 (i.e. the first phase signal phase1 described above) and discharging phase ph2 (i.e. the second phase signal phase2 described above). When in the charging phase ph1, the first switch signal S1 input to the gate of the first switch tube MP1 is at low potential, the second switch signal S2 input to the gate of the second switch tube MP2, the third switch signal S3 input to the gate of the third switch tube MP3 and the fourth switch signal S4 input to the gate of the fourth switch tube MN4 are at high potential, the power supply voltage VDD charges the flying capacitor Cfly through the first switch tube MP1 and the fourth switch tube MN4, and at this time the output capacitor Cout discharges the load. When in the discharging phase ph2, the first switch signal S1 input to the gate of the first switch tube MP1 is at high potential, the second switch signal S2 input to the gate of the second switch tube MP2, the third switch signal S3 input to the gate of the third switch tube MP3 and the fourth switch signal S4 input to the gate of the fourth switch tube MN4 are at low potential, and at this time the flying capacitor Cfly supplies power to the load and the output capacitor Cout simultaneously.
[0038] In 1 times mode, the voltage of the flying capacitor Cfly and the voltage of the output capacitor Cout are both equal to VDD. When switching from 1 times mode to 2 times mode, the charge pump is in the discharging phase ph2, the second switch tube MP2 and the third switch tube MP3 are open, and since the voltage of the flying capacitor Cfly does not change abruptly, the voltage at the CN end of the output capacitor Cout is 0, at this time the Vds (drain-source voltage) of the third switch tube MP3 is VDD and the Vgs (gate-source voltage) is VDD. According to the transfer characteristic curve of the MOS tube, at this time the Id (drain current) of the third switch tube MP3 is very large, and the current in this working state needs to be limited to prevent damage to the device.
[0039] When the charge pump is in the ph1 state of 2 times mode, the fourth switch signal S4 is at high potential, the fourth switch tube MN4 and the first power switch tube MNN4 are turned on, the power tube current information is sampled to the sixth transistor MP12 through the first operational amplifier OP1 and a certain proportion of the current mirror, converted into voltage on the first resistor R1 and input to the reverse input end of the first comparator Comp1. When the sampled current is greater than a certain threshold value, the voltage at the positive end of the first resistor R1 is greater than the reference voltage Vref1, at this time the reverse overcurrent signal OCZ output by the first comparator Comp1 is low, and the current limiting signal CL output by the logic circuit 4 is high.
[0040] When the charge pump is in the ph2 state of 2 times mode, the third switch signal S3 is low, the third switch tube MP3 and the first power switch tube MPP3 are turned on, the power tube current information is sampled to the sixth transistor MP12 through the second operational amplifier OP2 and a certain proportion of the current mirror, is converted into voltage on the first resistor R1 and is input to the reverse input end of the first comparator Comp1. When the sampled current is greater than a certain threshold, the voltage at the positive end of the first resistor R1 is greater than the reference voltage Vref1, at this time, the reverse overcurrent signal OCZ output by the first comparator Comp1 is low, and the current limiting signal CL output by the logic circuit 4 is high.
[0041] When the charge pump is in 2 times mode, if the output voltage PVDD is lower than 1.5 times of VDD, UV is high, at this time, no matter whether the reverse overcurrent signal OCZ is high or low, the output CL of the logic circuit 4 is high; if PVDD is greater than 1.5 times of VDD, UV is low, at this time, when OCZ is low, CL is high, and when OCZ is high, CL is low.
[0042] When CL is high, CLZ is low, the twelfth transistor MN14 and the eleventh transistor MP13 are turned on. Since the third switch tube MP3 and the ninth transistor MCLP constitute the first current mirror, the fourth switch tube MN4 and the tenth transistor MCLN constitute the first current mirror, therefore the currents of the switch tubes MN4 and MP3 are respectively affected by the limiting currents flowing through the transistors MN14 and MP13, and the current sources ICLN and ICLP are used to replace the limiting currents.
[0043] Figure 7 The waveform diagram of the charge pump circuit of the application is shown in the figure, when the charge pump is switched from 1 times mode to 2 times mode, in the initial charging period, when the PVDD voltage sampled by the under-voltage judgment circuit 3 is less than VDD, UV is high, the CL output by the logic circuit 4 is high, the current limiting circuit 5 limits the current at the end of the flying capacitor Cfly and the capacitor CN, the charge pump does not need to wait for the sampling result of the overcurrent sampling, and is directly in the current limiting working state. When the PVDD voltage sampled by the under-voltage judgment circuit 3 is greater than 1.5 times of VDD, UV is low, the current sampling circuit 2 and the under-voltage judgment circuit 3 detect that the current exceeds the overcurrent threshold, OCZ is low, at this time, the CL output by the logic is high, and the charge pump is in the current limiting working state. If PVDD is higher than 1.5 times of VDD and the output load is small, CL is low, the charge pump works normally, the gate voltage of MP3 can be as low as 0, and the gate voltage of MN4 can be as high as VDD.
[0044] The application can transform the working mode according to the size of the audio input signal: when the amplitude of the input audio signal is small, the required output power is small, a high output voltage is not needed, the output and input voltages of the charge pump are equal, and the switch group of the charge pump is configured in 1 times mode. When the amplitude of the input audio signal is large, the required output power is large, the output of the charge pump is twice the input voltage, and the switch group of the charge pump is configured in 2 times mode. In this way, the voltage can be fully utilized in the entire input signal range, and the balance between the output power dynamic range and the efficiency is achieved.

The above embodiment of the application can be variously changed. Any simple, equivalent changes and modifications made according to the content of the application claims and the description fall within the scope of the application.
