Embodiment
For above and other objects of the present invention, feature and advantage can be become apparent, cited below particularlyly go out preferred embodiment, and cooperate appended graphicly, be described in detail below.
For the convenience on illustrating, having function that be equal to or similar will represent with the components identical label.So the element of identical label does not represent that two elements is inevitable identical among the different embodiment.Scope of the present invention should decide with the foundation claim.
Behind the impact damper among the last Fig. 2 a-2c of LDO voltage stabilizer collocation of Fig. 1, the grid voltage variation that can produce problem a: PMOSMP0 is not track to track (rail-to-rail).With the impact damper among Fig. 2 c is example, even if voltage V 1High to supply voltage V with the input power supply InThe same, grid voltage V gAt most also can only be drawn high and be equaled supply voltage V InCut the cut-in voltage V of NPN transistor Be-onIn other words, the grid voltage of the PMOS transistor MP0 among Fig. 1 changes and can't change fully in supply voltage V InAnd between the ground voltage, this can reduce the dynamic operation scope of whole LDO voltage stabilizer.
Fig. 3 is one according to LDO voltage stabilizer that the present invention implemented.Among Fig. 3, as the feedback voltage V on two input ends of transduction amplifier GM comparison of amplifier stage FbWith reference voltage V Ref, and have one first output terminal and one second output terminal.Be connected as the impact damper BUFFER in the buffer stage between first output terminal and PMOS MP0 grid of transduction amplifier GM.Impact damper BUFFER can implement with source follower or emitter follower, as giving an example among Fig. 2 a-2c, also can use the amplifier of category-A, category-B or AB class to implement.Generally, promptly constitute an operation amplifying circuit as the transduction amplifier GM of amplifier stage and as the impact damper BUFFER in the buffer stage.The voltage gain of impact damper BUFFER can be approximately 1.PMOS MP0 in output stage, its grid are also driven by second output terminal of transduction amplifier GM, as shown in Figure 3 except the output terminal that is cushioned device BUFFER drives.The source electrode (source) of PMOS transistor MP0 is connected to supply voltage V In, drain electrode (drain) then provides adjusts back voltage V Out
Fig. 4 is a kind of embodiment of the LDO voltage stabilizer of Fig. 3.Transduction amplifier 20 has differential amplifier 22, relatively feedback voltage V FbWith reference voltage V Ref, a positive output end np and a negative output terminal nn are arranged.Differential amplifier 22 also can be implemented with other differential circuit.Circuit 24 can be considered as a gain circuitry with PMOS MP1 and MP2, has two current output terminals respectively in the drain electrode of PMOS MP1 and MP2.NMOS MN1 and MN2 can be considered as another gain circuitry, have two current output terminals respectively in the drain electrode of NMOS MN1 and MN2.The drain electrode of the drain electrode of PMOS MP1 and NMOS MN1 can be considered as the transduceing pair of output of amplifier 20, and the drain electrode of the drain electrode of PMOS MP2 and NMOS MN2 can be considered as another to output terminal.
Impact damper 26 is the plug-type amplifier of an AB class, and it has NMOS MN3 and MN4 and PMOS MP3 and MP4.The last input end nu of impact damper 26 is connected to the drain electrode of PMOS MP1, and following input end nd is connected to the drain electrode of NMOS MN1.In Fig. 4, NMOS MN3 and MN4 are depletion most (depletion-mode metal-oxide-semiconductor transistor), and other NMOS is enhancement mode (enhance-mode) metal oxide semiconductor transistor.As known to those skilled in the art, enhancement most refers to drain electrode need add the metal oxide semiconductor transistor that voltage just can form with the conductive channel between the source electrode, and the drain electrode that depletion most refers to does not need to add the metal oxide semiconductor transistor of voltage with regard to having formed with the conductive channel between the source electrode.For example, the critical voltage of enhancement mode NMOS (threshold voltage) is then to be 0 or negative value on the occasion of, depletion type NMOS.Because NMOS MN3 and MN4 are depletion type NMOS, so, when the voltage of last input end nu up to supply voltage V InThe time, grid voltage V gAlso can draw high and reach supply voltage V In
The current output terminal (drain electrode of NMOS MN2 and PMOS MP2) that amplifier 20 is led in the output terminal of impact damper 26 (source electrode of NMOS MN4 and PMOS MP4 just) transfer links together, and together drives the grid of PMOSMP0, just control end ng.
Among Fig. 4, it is all little than the output impedance of the output impedance of NMOS MN1 and MN2 and PMOS MP1 and MP2 that the output impedance of impact damper 26 can design.So, impact damper 26 can discharge and recharge control end ng apace, and the higher signal instantaneous velocity of reaction is provided.
When the voltage of the following input end nd of impact damper 26 low to 0 current potential, just during ground connection, because PMOSMP4 is an enhancement most, so impact damper 26 can't be grid voltage V gMove 0 current potential to.At this moment, transduction amplifier 20 can pass through NMOS MN2, grid voltage V gMove 0 current potential to.In other words, though impact damper 26 can't make grid voltage V gReach track to track and change, but, therefore can make grid voltage V because transduction amplifier 20 has the direct drive controlling end ng of an output gReaching track to track changes.
When general operation, as long as feedback voltage V FbDeparted from reference voltage V Ref, the impact damper 26 among Fig. 4 is drive controlling end ng apace just, adjusts the channel impedance of PMOS MP0, raises apace or reduces and adjust back voltage V Out, make feedback voltage V FbApproach reference voltage V RefBecause impact damper 26 is for having the plug-type amplifier of an AB class of two input ends, so impact damper 26 can react the comparative result of differential amplifier 22 apace, with or the mode that pushes away or draw, change the grid voltage V of control end ng apace g
In case grid voltage V gWhen surpassing the driving scope of impact damper 26, transduction amplifier 20, by PMOSMP2 or NMOS is MN2, just direct drive controlling end ng is to reach grid voltage V gTrack to track changes, and keeps whole dynamic operation scope.
Though the present invention discloses as above with preferred embodiment; right its is not in order to limit the present invention; any have in the technical field of the invention know the knowledgeable usually; without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; when can doing a little change and retouching, so protection scope of the present invention is as the criterion when looking appended the claim scope person of defining.
