Abstract: A switching regulator which has load transient quick response ability includes at least one power stage circuit and a control circuit. The control circuit includes a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal generation circuit and a quick response (QR) signal generation circuit. The PWM signal generation circuit generates a PWM signal according to an output voltage and a QR signal, to control a power switch of the corresponding power stage circuit, thus converting an input voltage to the output voltage. The QR signal generation circuit includes a differentiator circuit and a comparison circuit. The differentiator circuit performs a differential operation on a voltage sensing signal related to the output voltage, to generate a differential signal. The comparison circuit compares the differential signal with a QR threshold signal, such that when the differential signal exceeds the QR signal, the PWM signal generation circuit performs a QR procedure.

Abstract: A switching converter includes: a power stage circuit configured to switch at least one switch of the power stage circuit according to a control signal, to convert an input voltage to an output voltage; and a control circuit configured to execute modulation on a pulse width according to a feedback voltage related to the output voltage, to generate the control signal in a heavy load status. In a light load status, and when the switching converter operates at a discontinuous conduction mode (DCM), after an inductor current flowing through the power stage circuit has already become a zero current, the control circuit ceases executing modulation on the pulse width according to the feedback voltage and ceases keeping a compensation voltage correlated with the output voltage at a present level.
