Patent number: 11909315Abstract: A switching regulator includes a power stage circuit and a controller circuit. The controller circuit includes a first amplification circuit, a second amplification circuit, a ramp signal generation circuit, and a comparator. The first amplification circuit generates an amplification signal according to a difference between a low-pass filtered signal and a feedback signal. The second amplification circuit generates an adjustment signal according to a difference between the feedback signal and a fast response signal. The comparator generates a pulse width modulation signal according to a difference between the amplification signal and a ramp signal to generate a switch control signal. The adjustment signal adaptively adjusts the amplification signal or the ramp signal. The low-pass filtered signal is related to a signal generated by filtering out higher frequency part of the reference signal, and the reference signal is related to a dynamic change of a target level of the output voltage.Type: GrantFiled: January 2, 2022Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: RICHTEK TECHNOLOGY CORPORATIONInventors: Yung-Chun Chuang, Huan-Chien Yang
