Abstract
A spread-spectrum switching regulator for eliminating modulation ripple includes high gain amplifier that is responsive to reference voltage and feedback voltage of feedback loop to generate differential voltage, the feedback voltage being one of output voltage of the spread-spectrum switching regulator and a fraction of the output voltage; compensation circuit, coupled to the high gain amplifier, that maintains stability of the feedback loop to generate error level voltage in response to differential voltage; ramp generator that generates ramp waveform with slope adaptable to switching frequency to maintain duty cycle at constant value; pulse width modulator, coupled to compensation circuit and ramp generator, that compares error level voltage and ramp waveform to generate pulsed waveform; driver circuit, coupled to pulse width modulator, that drives the pulsed waveform to alternately switch a pair of transistors; and LC network, coupled to the pair of transistors, to average pulsed waveform to the output voltage.
