Abstract

The invention discloses a dead time control circuit used in a DC-DC converter. In allusion to unnecessary power loss brought by conduction loss and reverse recovery in the DC-DC converter, the dead time control circuit used in the DC-DC converter enables a body diode conduction to be detected quickly along the two edges of PWM signal through a dead time detector, thereby turning off a power tube or a rectifying tube to make the body diode conduction time be reduced to be close to the transmission delay time of a drive unit, reducing the power loss brought by the body diode conduction substantially and improving efficiency substantially. The improved efficiency brought by employing the structure enables a higher switch frequency to be feasible, thereby reducing the size of a passive device. Moreover, the circuit of the invention can adjust the dead time adaptively in accordance with different load currents.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of electronic technology, in particular to a dead-time control circuit used for a DC-DC converter in a power integrated circuit. Background technique [0002] High-efficiency DC-DC converters are often required in battery-powered portable devices, and it is desirable to maximize the time interval between charges. The higher the frequency, the smaller the size of the passive components, so it is generally preferred to use high frequency switching converters. Due to its high efficiency, the synchronous Buck converter is widely used in portable devices. [0003] A typical Buck converter circuit, such as figure 1 shown. In a typical buck circuit mode, the source of the P-type power transistor is connected to the input signal Vin, the gate is connected to the control signal GP, and the drain (SW) is connected to the inductor L, the drain of the N-type rectifier and the negative terminal of the comparator respectively. ...
