Abstract
The ripple-based constant on-time (COT) control with ripple compensation has been widely adopted in buck converters in the recent years because of its simplicity, fast transient response, and high light-load efficiency. However, this control has the potential issues of instability and excessive load transient response with wide input/output voltage range conditions in the power management integrated circuit (PMIC) applications. In this article, an accurate adaptive COT control scheme is proposed to solve these problems. The control scheme achieves accurate output voltage, and nearly constant quality factor and well transient response over a wide-range operation with simple circuit. The small-signal model is also derived based on the describing function (DF) technique for design optimization. Finally, the simulations and experimental verifications were conducted to verify the proposed concepts.
