Abstract

The invention provides a low dropout regulator (LDO) and a voltage stabilization method. The LDO comprises a voltage compensation circuit and a voltage stabilization circuit, and the output end of thevoltage stabilization circuit is connected with external equipment through a circuit board connecting wire; the voltage compensation circuit is used for determining the loss voltage of the circuit board connecting wire and compensating for first reference voltage according to the loss voltage to obtain second reference voltage; the voltage stabilization circuit is used for adjusting the output voltage of the LDO according to the second reference voltage. In the embodiment of the LDO, no matter how a working current of the external equipment changes, in other words, no matter how a load current of the LDO changes, stable input voltage can be obtained at the input end of the external equipment, and accordingly it is ensured that a power supply system is stable and reliable.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of power supplies, in particular to a low-dropout linear regulator and a voltage stabilizing method. Background technique [0002] In the power supply system of the mobile terminal, the PMIC (Power Management IC, power management integrated circuit) provides multiple LDOs (Low dropout regulators, low dropout linear regulators) with different output voltages, and the output of each LDO passes through the PCB (Printed Circuit Board, printed circuit board) traces are connected to external devices to supply power to external devices. [0003] Under normal circumstances, the voltage input from the LDO to the external device is stable. However, due to the resistance of the PCB traces, when the load current of the external device changes, the voltage input to the external device will also change accordingly, thus causing the instability of the power supply system. Contents of the invention [0004] Embodiments ...
