چکیده

This paper presents a delta-sigma control loop for a buck-boost dc-dc converter with fractional gains. The charge pump used to convert the input voltage acts as a D/A converter in the loop, and its output ripple is frequency shaped by the loop, which also provides the pulsefrequency modulation needed for the conversion. A test chip realised in a 0.72-μm CMOS process and clocked at 1MHz provided suppression of tones up to 50dB in the 0-500kHz range. The target output voltage may be from 1.8V to 4V for loads up to 150mA. The input voltage range is 3V to 5V.

13th Int'l Symposium on Quality Electronic Design

Experimental results of an active filter based onchip hybrid voltage converter are described in this paper. The area of the voltage converter is significantly less than the area of a conventional passive filter based DC-DC voltage converter or a low-dropout (LDO) regulator. Hence, the proposed circuit is appropriate for point-of-load voltage regulation for the noise sensitive portions of an int...

Exploration of Charge Recycling DC-DC Conversion Using a Switched Capacitor Regulator

The increasing popularity of DVFS (dynamic voltage frequency scaling) schemes for portable low power applications demands highly efficient on-chip DC-DC converters. The primary aim of this work is to enable increased efficiency of on-chip DC-DC conversion for near-threshold operation of multicore chips. The idea is to supply nominal (high) off-chip voltage to the cores which are then “voltage-s...

Active Filter-Based Hybrid On-Chip DC-DC Converter for Point-of-Load Voltage Regulation

An active filter-based on-chip DC–DC voltage converter for application to distributed on-chip power supplies in multivoltage systems is described in this paper. No inductor or output capacitor is required in the proposed converter. The area of the voltage converter is therefore significantly less than that of a conventional low-dropout (LDO) regulator. Hence, the proposed circuit is appropriate...

ERRATUM Power harvesting with PZT ceramics and circuits design

Power generated from a piezoelectric material usually comes with poor characteristics such as high voltage, low current and high impedance. In order to drive the embedded sensor circuit, piezoelectric power needs to be characterized and regulated. In this paper, we present an analysis on the power generation characteristics and the efficiency of power conversion of the stiff lead zirconate tita...
