Abstract
A hybrid-mode low-drop out (LDO) voltage regulator with fast transient response performance for IoT applications is proposed in this paper. The proposed LDO regulator consist of two sections. First section is an analog regulator which includes a folded cascode operational amplifier to achieve good PSRR. Second section is current DAC and detectors whitch includes a cource current DAC, sink current DAC, undershoot detectors, and overshoot detectors. The current DAC and detectors are designed to obtain a low drop out and fast transient response. The proposed hybrid-mode LDO voltage regulator has been designed, simulated and layouted in Cadence using TSMC 90 nm CMOS technology. The input range of the LDO regulator is 1.2–2.0 V, and it can produces an output voltage of 1.2V. The LDO regulator achieves 58uA quiescent current, -69 PSRR @ 1 KHz noise frequency and an output voltage drop of around 60mV for a load current step of 100 mA. The final design occupies approximately 0.09 mm2.
期刊介绍:
WSEAS Transactions on Power Systems publishes original research papers relating to electric power and energy. We aim to bring important work to a wide international audience and therefore only publish papers of exceptional scientific value that advance our understanding of these particular areas. The research presented must transcend the limits of case studies, while both experimental and theoretical studies are accepted. It is a multi-disciplinary journal and therefore its content mirrors the diverse interests and approaches of scholars involved with generation, transmission & distribution planning, alternative energy systems, power market, switching and related areas. We also welcome scholarly contributions from officials with government agencies, international agencies, and non-governmental organizations.
