This paper presents a digitally controlled boost converter IC for high output voltage and fast transient applications. Thus, it is well applicable in automotive and industrial environments. The 3V-to-6V input voltage, 6.3V output voltage, 1A boost converter IC is fabricated in a 180nm BCD technology. Digital control enables cost savings, advanced control concepts, and it is less parameter sensitive compared to common analog control. A 90 ns latency, 6-bit delay line ADC operates with a window concept, meeting high resolution requirements, e.g. in car battery applications. An output voltage live tracking is included for extending the ADC conversion window. A charge pump DAC provides high resolution, monotonicity, and short 128 ns conversion time. Further, a standard digital PI controller is enhanced by a simple but effective ΔV/Δt-intervention control. It results in 2.8x reduced output voltage deviations in case of load steps, scaling down the output capacitor value by the same factor.
Drei Stufen geben Sicherheit
(2018)
GaN-Transistoren bieten ein enormes Potenzial für kompakte Leistungselektronik, indem sie die Größe von passiven Bauelementen verringern. Allerdings bringt das schnelle Schalten Herausforderungen für den Gate-Treiber mit sich. Ein vollständig integrierter Treiber mit drei Spannungsstufen hilft, diese zu lösen.
