Abstract

See full text

A voltage regulator comprises switching circuitry for generating a phase voltage at a phase node responsive to an input voltage and switching control signals. An inductor is connected to the phase node and an output voltage node. A capacitor is connected between the output voltage node and ground. An error amplifier generates an error voltage responsive to an output voltage from the output voltage node and a reference voltage. Switching control circuitry generates switching control signals to the switching circuitry responsive to the error voltage, a ramp voltage and an established voltage level. The switching control circuitry operates the voltage regulator in a pulse frequency modulation mode of operation after sampling the error voltage and setting the established voltage level and exits the pulse frequency modulation mode of operation when the error voltage falls below the established voltage level.
