Abstract
We present a high-stability regulation circuit to ensure the safety of a device within a wide range of the back-sink current for a USB Type-C interface application. The proposed adaptive linear pole–zero tracking compensation can linearly compensate for the changes in the back-sink current, thereby adaptively canceling the pole–zero changes caused by the current changes. The simulation results show that the phase margin remains greater than 60°. Meanwhile, the loop bandwidth changes between 45 kHz and 135 kHz, when the current increases from 0 A to 1 A, ensuring excellent loop stability. The high-stability regulation circuit is realized in a standard 180 nm CMOS process with an area of 0.4 mm × 0.6 mm. The chip regulates an output voltage from 4.5 V to 5.5 V with 1 A current capacity and 100 mV maximum dropout voltage with the help of the adaptive linear pole–zero tracking compensation.
