Power chips in power supply devices (such as buck chips, boost chips, etc.) can achieve precise regulation of the output voltage through the internal feedback control loop. Specifically, the output voltage can be sampled through the feedback pin of the power chip and compared with the reference voltage inside the power chip, thereby dynamically adjusting the switching duty cycle to ensure the stability of the output voltage.

Thus, features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the described features.

In order for any person skilled in the art to implement and use the present application, the following description is provided. In the following description, details are set forth for purposes of explanation. It should be understood that those of ordinary skill in the art can recognize that the present application can be implemented without the use of these specific details. In other instances, well-known structures and processes are not elaborated in detail to avoid obscuring the description of the present application with unnecessary details. Therefore, the present application is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and features disclosed in the present application.

[0047] In a first aspect, as Figure 1 shown, in one embodiment, the present application provides an output voltage regulation circuit. The output voltage regulation circuit includes a power supply chip U1, a controller 2, a voltage follower U2, a voltage division module 1, and the controller 2. Among them, the power supply chip U1 includes a power input terminal, a feedback terminal for providing a reference voltage, and a power output terminal for outputting an output voltage. The controller 2 is configured to output a voltage control signal; the voltage follower U2 is connected to the controller 2 and is configured to transmit the voltage control signal. The voltage division module 1 is connected to the voltage follower U2, the power output terminal, and the feedback terminal, and divides the voltage control signal, the output voltage, and the reference voltage to establish a linear mapping relationship between the output voltage and the voltage control signal; wherein, the controller 2 adjusts the voltage control signal based on the linear mapping relationship to regulate the output voltage.

[0048] As an example, the target voltage value of the output voltage can be set by the controller 2, and the linear mapping relationship is stored in the controller 2 so that the controller 2 can substitute the target voltage value into the linear mapping relationship to obtain a voltage control signal corresponding to the target voltage value.

[0049] As an example, the magnitude of the reference voltage is related to the model of the power supply chip U1, and the reference voltages of different power supply chips U1 are different. For example, the reference voltage can be 0.8v or 1.2v.

[0050] In the above embodiments, first, the controller 2 can dynamically adjust the voltage control signal based on a linear mapping relationship. Subsequently, the voltage division module 1 performs voltage division processing on the voltage control signal, the output voltage, and the reference voltage. When the voltage control signal is adjusted, the voltage division ratio of the voltage division module 1 changes accordingly, and the voltage division module 1 is directly connected to the feedback terminal of the power supply chip U1. Therefore, by adjusting the voltage control signal, the adjustment of the output voltage output by the power supply chip U1 can be achieved, and the adjustment range of the output voltage follows the constraint of the linear mapping relationship, thereby making the adjustment of the output voltage more accurate.

[0051] Referring to Figure 2 , as an embodiment of the voltage follower U2, the voltage follower U2 includes a first input terminal connected to the controller 2, an output terminal connected to the voltage division module 1, and a second input terminal.

[0052] As an example, the first input terminal of the voltage follower U2 can be the non-inverting input terminal, and the second input terminal can be the inverting input terminal. A feedback resistor is also connected in series between the second input terminal and the output terminal of the voltage follower U2 to adjust the gain of the voltage follower U2 to 1, thereby reducing the output impedance.

[0053] Referring to Figure 2 , as an embodiment of the voltage division module 1, the voltage division module 1 includes a first resistor R1, a second resistor R2, and a third resistor R3; the first end of the first resistor R1 is connected to the power output terminal of the power supply chip U1, and the second end is connected to the feedback terminal of the power supply chip U1 and the first end of the second resistor R2 at a voltage division node. The second end of the second resistor R2 is grounded; the first end of the third resistor R3 is connected to the voltage division node, and the second end is connected to the output terminal of the voltage follower U2; wherein, the linear mapping relationship is set according to the reference voltage, the resistance values of the first resistor R1, the second resistor R2, and the third resistor R3.

[0054] As an example, the voltage division node and the feedback terminal of the power supply chip U1 are equipotential points, and the potential of the output terminal of the voltage follower U2 is the same as that of its first input terminal. When the voltage control signal is greater than or equal to the reference voltage, the potential of the second terminal of the third resistor R3 is greater than that of its first terminal. Therefore, the conduction direction of the third resistor R3 is from the second terminal of the third resistor R3 to the first terminal. At this time, the shunt value of the second resistor R2 is equal to the sum of the shunt values of the first resistor R1 and the third resistor R3, that is, VFB / R20 = (VOUT - VFB) / R10 + (VDAC - VFB) / R30; where, R10 is the resistance value of the first resistor R1, R20 is the resistance value of the second resistor R2, R30 is the resistance value of the third resistor R3, VOUT is the output voltage, VFB is the amplitude of the reference voltage, and VDAC is the amplitude of the voltage control signal; VFB / R20 is the shunt value of the second resistor R2, (VOUT - VFB) / R10 is the shunt value of the first resistor R1, and (VDAC - VFB) / R30 is the shunt value of the third resistor R3. Rearranging the above formula, we can get: VOUT = (VFB * R10) / R20 - (VDAC - VFB) * R10 / R30 + VFB = -VDAC * R10 / R30 + VFB * (R10 / R20 + R10 / R30 + 1).

[0055] When the voltage control signal is less than the reference voltage, the potential of the second terminal of the third resistor R3 is less than that of its first terminal. Therefore, the conduction direction of the third resistor R3 is from the first terminal of the third resistor R3 to the second terminal, and the second terminal of the third resistor R3 is grounded through the inside of the voltage follower U2. At this time, the shunt value of the first resistor R1 is equal to the sum of the shunt values of the second resistor R2 and the third resistor R3, that is, (VOUT - VFB) / R10 = VFB / R20 + (VFB - VDAC) / R30; Rearranging the above formula, we can get: VOUT = (VFB * R10) / R20 + (VFB - VDAC) * R10 / R30 + VFB = -VDAC * R10 / R30 + VFB * (R10 / R20 + R10 / R30 + 1).

[0056] It can be seen from this that regardless of the magnitude relationship between the voltage control signal and the reference voltage, VOUT = -VDAC * R10 / R30 + VFB * (R10 / R20 + R10 / R30 + 1) is always satisfied. Combining Figure 3 , the slope of the linear mapping relationship between the output voltage and the voltage control signal is -R10 / R30, that is, it is negatively correlated with the ratio of the resistance value of the first resistor R1 to the resistance value of the third resistor R3. The translation range of the linear mapping relationship can be adjusted by the reference voltage, the resistance value of the first resistor R1, the resistance value of the second resistor R2, and the resistance value of the third resistor R3.

[0057] In the above embodiments, different reference voltages can be set by selecting different power supply chips U1. The resistance values of the first resistor R1, the second resistor R2, and the third resistor R3 can also be determined according to actual needs, so that the voltage division module 1 can flexibly establish a linear mapping relationship between the output voltage and the voltage control signal.

[0058] Referring to Figure 4 , as a further embodiment of the power supply voltage adjustment circuit, the power supply voltage adjustment circuit further includes a current acquisition module; the current acquisition module includes a current acquisition chip U3 and an operational amplifier U4. Among them, the input end of the current acquisition chip U3 (such as a Hall current sensor) is connected to the power output end of the power supply chip U1; the input end of the current acquisition chip U3 is connected to the power output end of the power supply chip U1; the first input end of the operational amplifier U4 is connected to the output end of the current acquisition chip U3, and the second input end and the output end are connected to the controller 2, and are used to generate a current sampling signal according to the output voltage; the controller 2 is also used to adjust the voltage control signal according to the current sampling signal to adjust the output voltage.

[0059] In the above embodiments, first, the current acquisition chip U3 acquires the current information of the output voltage and converts it into a current sampling signal, and then transmits it to the controller 2. Secondly, the controller 2 can judge whether the output voltage is in an overcurrent state according to the received current sampling signal. When the controller 2 detects that the output voltage is in an overcurrent state, the controller 2 can adjust the voltage control signal, so as to effectively adjust the output voltage and avoid the occurrence of overcurrent phenomena.

[0060] Referring to Figure 5 , secondly, in an embodiment, the present application provides an output voltage adjustment method. Based on the above power supply voltage adjustment circuit, the method is applied to the controller 2, and the method includes step S101-step S103, which will be introduced in detail below.

[0061] Step S101: Obtain the set target voltage value.

[0062] As an example, the target voltage value input externally can be received through the communication module of the controller 2 so that the user can set the target voltage value.

[0063] Step S102: Obtain the linear mapping relationship between the output voltage formed by the voltage division module 1 and the voltage control signal.

[0064] Step S103: According to the linear mapping relationship, determine the voltage control signal corresponding to the target voltage value, and output the voltage control signal to the voltage follower U2 to adjust the voltage division ratio of the voltage division module 1, so that the power supply chip U1 adjusts the output output voltage to the target voltage value.

[0065] In some embodiments, the linear mapping relationship is negatively correlated, and as the amplitude of the voltage control signal increases, the output voltage value gradually decreases.

[0066] In some embodiments, the linear mapping relationship is VOUT = -VDAC * R10 / R30 + VFB * (R10 / R20 + R10 / R30 + 1). Wherein, R10 is the resistance value of the first resistor R1, R20 is the resistance value of the second resistor R2, R30 is the resistance value of the third resistor R3, VOUT is the output voltage, VFB is the reference voltage, and VDAC is the amplitude of the voltage control signal.

[0067] Combined with Figure 3 , the amplitude of the voltage control signal can be adjusted between 0 and VFB * (R30 / R20 + R30 / R10 + 1), so that the output voltage varies between VFB * (R10 / R20 + R10 / R20 + 1) and 0. That is, when the amplitude of the voltage control signal is 0, the amplitude of the output voltage is maximally VFB * (R10 / R20 + R10 / R20 + 1), and when the amplitude of the voltage control signal is VFB * (R30 / R20 + R30 / R10 + 1), the amplitude of the output voltage is zero. In this way, linear regulation between the voltage control signal and the output voltage is achieved.

[0068] As an example, the linear mapping relationship can be stored in the controller 2. Since the reference voltage, the resistance values of the first resistor R1, the second resistor R2, and the third resistor R3 are known values, after setting the target voltage value, the controller 2 can directly substitute the target voltage value into the linear mapping relationship to obtain the voltage control signal.

[0069] As a further implementation manner of the power supply voltage regulation method, the power supply voltage regulation method further includes step S201 - step S203, which will be introduced in detail below.

[0070] Step S201: Obtain the set current limit value.

[0071] As an example, the current limit value can be set according to the actual application scenario. For example, the current limit value input externally can be received through the communication module of the controller 2 so that the user can set the current limit value.

[0072] Step S202: Obtain the current sampling signal of the voltage.

[0073] Step S203: When the current sampling signal is greater than or equal to the current limit value, adjust the voltage control signal to reduce the current value of the output voltage.

[0074] As an example, when the linear mapping relationship is negatively correlated and the current sampling signal is greater than or equal to the current limiting value, the output voltage current value can be reduced by increasing the voltage control signal.

[0075] As a further implementation of the power supply voltage regulation method, the power supply voltage regulation method further includes: outputting an enable signal to the power supply chip U1 to control the power supply chip U1 to conduct, so that the power supply chip U1 outputs an output voltage with an amplitude of the target voltage value.
