发明名称 CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR MONITORING AND MAINTAINING A BOOTSTRAP VOLTAGE IN AN N-CHANNEL BUCK REGULATOR
摘要 A control circuit is incorporated in a switching regulator for monitoring and maintaining a bootstrap voltage to allow the switching regulator to operate at or near 100% duty cycle. The control circuit includes a circuit receiving the bootstrap voltage and generating a monitor voltage, a comparator circuit receiving the monitor voltage and a first voltage indicative of a switching output voltage and generating an output signal having a first state when the monitor voltage is equal to or less than the first voltage, a logic circuit receiving the output signal and generating drive control signals to driver circuits driving the high-side and low-side power switches. The logic circuit generates the drive control signals in response to the output signal of the comparator circuit having the first state to cause the high-side power switch to turn off and the low-side power switch to turn on, thereby recharging the bootstrap voltage.
