초록

본 논문에서는 모바일 응용에 적합한 고효율의 빠른 응답 특성을 가지는 히스테리틱 벅 변환기를 제안한다. 기존 히스테리틱 변환기의 문제점인 큰 출력 전압 리플과 작은 용량의 전력 인덕터 사용의 어려움을 삼각파 신호 발생기를 통해 해결하였다. 그리고 부하 전류에 따라 가변하는 스위칭 주파수를 PLL(Phase Locked Loop)구조를 사용하여 일정하게 함으로써 주변 IC에 미치는 EMI(Electro Magnetic Interference)잡음을 최소화 하였다. 이 회로는 BCDMOS 0.35um 2-poly 4-metal 공정으로 제작되었으며, 측정 결과 입력전압 3.7V, 출력전압 1.2V 부하 전류 50~500mA 범위에서 20mV 이하의 출력 전압 리플을 나타내며 170mA 이상의 부하 전류를 구동하는 경우 2MHz의 고정된 스위칭 주파수에서 동작하였다.

An efficient fast response hysteretic buck converter suitable for mobile application is propoesed. The problems of large output ripple and difficulty in using of small power inductor that conventional hysteretic converter has are improved by adding ramp generator. and the changeable switching frequency with load current is fixed by adding a delay time control circuit composed of PLL structure resulting in decrease of EMI noise. The circuits are implemented by using BCDMOS 0.35um 2-polt 4-metal process. Measurement results show that the converter operates with a switching frequency of 1.85MHz when drives 80mA load current. As the converter drives over 170mA load current, the switching frequency is fixed on 2MHz. The converter has output ripple voltage of less 20mV and more than efficiency 85% with 50~500mA laod current condition.
