A switching converter, control method control circuit thereof are disclosed. The switching converter converts a DC input voltage into a DC output voltage. The control circuit comprising: a compensation module, generating a ramp signal; a comparator, compares a first superimposed signal related to the DC output voltage with a second superimposed signal related to an error signal between the DC output voltage and the ramp signal; a first RS flip-flop generates a pulse width modulation signal in accordance with a set signal and a reset signal, obtains a constant on time in accordance with the reset signal, and obtains an off time related to the DC output voltage; and a driving module which converts the pulse width modulation signal into a switching control signal, wherein the compensation module adaptively adjusts the slope of the ramp signal. The control circuit adopts an adaptive ramp signal to perform compensation.

Switching converter, and control method and control circuit thereof

In one embodiment, a battery management system includes a charger controller for controlling a charging current of a battery according to a status of a load which is powered by the battery, and a counter coupled to the charger controller for determining a charging time according to such status. Advantageously, a first charging current is selected when the load is off. A second charging current that is less than the first charging current is selected when the load is on. Furthermore, a frequency of the counter is set to a first frequency when the load is off. The frequency is set to a second frequency that is less than the first frequency when the load is on.
