  • Publication number: 20120326688
    Abstract: A switching power supply with a quick transient response is provided. A hysteretic control loop which comprises a hysteretic controller (117) and a control signal gate (116) is added to the original PWM control loop of the switching power supply. The hysteretic controller (117) is used to detect an output voltage (Vout) of the switching power supply and compare the output voltage (Vout) of the switching power supply with a reference voltage (Vref). When a load current (Iout) of the switching power supply is suddenly changed, the output voltage (Vout) of the switching power supply fluctuates. If the output voltage (Vout) of the switching power supply is in a setting range of the hysteretic voltage, output terminals (SELp, SELn) of the hysteretic controller (117) are in a low potential, and the control signal gate (116) selects output signals (Qp1, Qn1) from a PWM controller (101) as input signals of a gate signal drive circuit (106).

  • Publication number: 20120256671
    Abstract: A switch level circuit (110) with dead time self-adapting control, which minimizes the switching loss in a switching power supply converter with synchronous rectification by changing a dead time between a high-side control transistor (10) and a low-side synchronous rectifying transistor (11). The switch level circuit (110) includes the high-side control transistor (10) and the low-side synchronous rectifying transistor (11) which are controlled to be on and off by external control signals, and a waveform with a given duty cycle is outputted at a node (LX) between the two transistors. The switch level circuit (110) also includes a control module for adjusting the dead time.
