Abstract
A single-inductor dual-output (SIDO) step-down DC-DC converter with contin uous conduction mode (CCM) oper- ation is proposed to achieve an area-ef ficient power management module. The low-voltage energy distribution controller (LV-EDC) can simultaneously guara ntee good voltage regulation and low output voltage ripple. With the proposed dual-mode energy de- livery methodology, cross regulation in steady-state output voltage ripple, which is rarely discussed, and cross regulation in load transient response are both effectively reduced. In addition, the energy mode transition operation helps obtain the appropriate energy operation m ode using the energy delivery paths for dual outputs. Moreover, within the allowable output voltage ripple, the automatic energy bypass (A EB) mechanism can reduce the number of energy delivery paths, thereby ensuring voltage regu- lation and further enhancing ef ficiency. The test chip, fabricated in 55-nm CMOS, occupies 1.44 mm and achieves 91% peak efficiency, low output voltage ripple, and excellent load transient response for a high-ef ficiency system-on-a-chip (SoC) integration.
