DC-DC converter

An output stage of a switching DC-DC converter (110) includes a pair of transistors (220, 240) and a bias transistor (230) connected between the transistors (220, 240). A voltage regulator (210) generates a bias voltage to bias a control terminal of the bias transistor (230) with a fixed bias voltag...

Zusammenfassung:An output stage of a switching DC-DC converter (110) includes a pair of transistors (220, 240) and a bias transistor (230) connected between the transistors (220, 240). A voltage regulator (210) generates a bias voltage to bias a control terminal of the bias transistor (230) with a fixed bias voltage. The voltage regulator (210) is operable in a full-power mode and a low-power mode. The voltage regulator (210) consumes larger current in the full-power mode than in the low-power mode. At low load currents, the voltage regulator (210) is operated in the low-power mode when both the transistors in the pair of transistors (220, 230) are off, and in the full-power mode otherwise.
