Abstract: A transient response enhancement circuit for buck-type voltage converters, wherein, the transient load changing detecting module detects the output voltage of the buck-type voltage converter. The first control signal is generated when the increase of the output voltage is detected, and the second control signal is generated when the decrease of the output voltage is detected, thereby self-adaptively detecting the time of the buck-type voltage converter in response to the load changing. The compensation voltage predicting operation module predicts and adjusts the compensation voltage and the adjusted compensation voltage is superimposed on the buck-type voltage converter through the internal active compensation module to adjust the duty ratio of the buck-type voltage converter. The drive controlling insertion logic module can further improve the response speed.

Abstract: A resistorless CMOS low power voltage reference circuit is provided. The start-up circuit is used to prevent the circuit to stay in the zero state and stop working when the circuit gets out of the zero state. The self-biased VPTAT generating circuit generate the voltage VPTAT which has positive temperature coefficient. The square-law current generating circuit generates a square-law current which is proportional to ?T2 through the VPTAT. Finally, the reference voltage VREF is obtained by introducing the square-law current into the reference voltage output circuit. The reference voltage VREF of this application can realize approximative zero temperature coefficient in the temperature range of ?40° C.˜100° C. This application improves temperature characteristic which may be poorer due to temperature nonlinearity of carrier mobility based on the traditional subthreshold reference. This application can reduce the power consumption from ?W level to nW level and realize low power consumption.
