The LDO was implemented in a 0.18 μm CMOS technology. The measured result reveals that the LDO s power supply rejection （PSR） is about -58dB and -54dB at 20Hz and 1kHz respectively,the response time is 4μs and the quiescent currentis 20μA. The designed LDO regulator can work with a supply voltage down to 2.0 V with a drop-out voltage of 200 mV at a maximum load current of 240 mA.展开更多

The circuit introduces a multi-vector error amplifier and a programmable oscillator to achieve frequency modulation, which provides a rapid dynamic response and precise output voltage clamping with low power in the entire load. According to the external load variation, the system can modulate the circuit operating frequency linearly, thereby ensuring that the PFC converter can work in frequency conversionmode. Measured results show that the normal operating frequency of the PFC converter is 5-6 kHz, the start-up current is 36 μA, the stable operating current is only 2.43 mA, the efficiency is 97.3%, the power factor （PF） is 0.988, THD is 3.8%, the load adjust rate is 3%, and the linear adjust rate is less than 1%. Both theoretical and practical results reveal that the power consumption of the whole supply system is reduced efficiently, especially when the load varies. The active die area of the PFC converter chip is 1.61 ×1.52 mm^2.展开更多
