Technical Field
The present invention relates to a dc-dc conversion circuit, and more particularly, to a dc-dc conversion circuit and a time signal generator thereof.
Background
When the dc-dc converter circuit with constant on-time is operated in a heavy-load steady state, since its on-time is constant, the time interval of the time signal provided by the dc-dc converter circuit is shortened (as shown in fig. 1A, the off-on time interval is shortened from TOFF1 to TOFF 2), the switching period is shortened, and the average value of the inductor current passing through the output inductor is increased (as shown in fig. 1B, the inductor current is changed from Iind1 to Iind 2), in order to offset the power conversion loss caused by the parasitic resistance of the elements in the circuit.
However, the short period of the time signal means that the switching frequency of the output stage of the dc-dc converter circuit increases, which results in the power conversion efficiency of the dc-dc converter circuit being deteriorated when the dc-dc converter circuit operates in a heavy load steady state.
