Abstract:
A method of generating a plurality of supply voltages for a plurality of subscriber line channels includes generating a first target VBAT value for a first associated linefeed driver from a first VBAT control. A second target VBAT value for a second associated linefeed driver is generated from a second VBAT control. A selected target VBAT value is generated based upon the first and second target VBAT values. A magnitude of the selected target VBAT value is not less than any maximum of a magnitude of the first and second target VBAT values. A switching regulator is controlled to provide a first generated VBAT corresponding to the selected target VBAT value, wherein the switching regulator provides a second generated VBAT having a pre-determined proportional relationship (p) to the first generated VBAT.

Abstract:
A method of controlling a switching regulator includes setting a current limit (ILIM) to a first value, ILIM1. An error voltage (VERR) is computed as a difference between an output voltage VOUT of the switching regulator and a reference voltage VREF of the switching regulator. The switching regulator current limit is set to a second value ILIM2, if the error voltage is greater than a first threshold voltage, VTH1. The switching regulator current limit is set to the first value, if the error voltage does not exceed a second threshold value, VTH2.
