  • Patent number: 11929680
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes various aspects of adaptive current control in switching power regulators for fast transient response. In some aspects, a clock of a switching power regulator is prevented, in response to detecting a transient load, from affecting application of current to an inductor of the regulator. A first switch device applies current to the inductor of the regulator until inductor current reaches a maximum current level. A second switch device then enables the current to flow through the inductor until the inductor current reaches a current control signal based on an output voltage of the switching power regulator. In some aspects, an offset is also applied to the current control signal to further increase average inductor current. These operations may be repeated without interruption from the clock to quickly increase the inductor current, and thus current provided to the regulator output in response to the transient load.
