    摘要: A constant on-time switching converter includes a switching circuit, an on-time control circuit, a comparing circuit and a logic circuit. The switching circuit has a first switch and is configured to provide an output voltage to a load. The on-time control circuit generates an on-time control signal to control the on-time of the first switch. The comparing circuit compares the output voltage of the switching circuit with a reference signal and generates a comparison signal. The logic circuit generates a control signal to control the first switch based on the on-time control signal and the comparison signal. When the switching frequency of the switching circuit approaches an audible range, the switching converter enters into a sleep mode, the on-time control signal is reduced to increase the switching frequency of the switching circuit.

    摘要: A switching converter has four switches and a control circuit. The control circuit provides a first drive signal to control a first switch and a second drive signal to control a second switch based on a first set signal, and provides a third drive signal to control the third switch and a fourth drive signal to control the fourth switch based on a second set signal. When an output voltage is larger than an input voltage, an on-time period of the third switch is adaptively adjusted according to the input voltage, the output voltage and a first parameter. When the output voltage is less than the input voltage, the on-time period of the third switch is adaptively adjusted according to the input voltage, the output voltage and a second parameter.
