Abstract
A regulator control circuit which is configured to control a switching regulator: a feedback comparator configured to compare a signal representative of a reference voltage with a signal representative of a voltage output of the switching regulator and to output a control signal for controlling the operation of the switching regulator dependent on the signals received by the feedback comparator; and a current feedback controller connected to the feedback comparator and configured to receive a signal representative of a current output by the switching regulator and determine whether the regulator control circuit adopts a first or second mode of operation based on the signal representative of a current output, such that, in the first mode of operation, the control signal is for controlling the switching regulator in accordance with a constant voltage control scheme and, in the second mode of operation, the control signal is for controlling the switching regulator in accordance with a constant current control scheme.
