摘要： A calibration current load is selectively coupled to an output of a pulse frequency modulated (PFM) DC-DC converter during a calibration operation to increase charge supplied from a battery supplying an input voltage to the converter. A voltage across a sense resistor in series with the battery is integrated during a measurement interval while the calibration current load is coupled to the output. A charge drawn per pulse from the battery is determined based on the sense resistor, the integrated voltage and the number of pulses during the measurement interval. Alternatively, a first PFM frequency is determined with a first calibration current load coupled to the converter output. A second PFM frequency is determined with a second calibration current load. The charge drawn per pulse from the battery is determined based on the first and second PFM frequencies and the first and second calibration current loads.

摘要： The charge drawn from a battery during each switching event (pulse) of a pulse frequency modulated DC-DC converter is determined during a calibration period. based on differences in pulse rate with different current loading. Another approach calibration approach determines charge drawn from the battery by measuring voltage across a sense resistor while measuring the total pulse rate and while adding sufficient load current to ensure that the voltage is much larger than the residual offset of the measurement system. During operation, the system counts number of pulses are counted and the total charge drawn from the battery is determined based, at least in part, on the charge transferred per pulse during calibration, the operational mode, the battery voltage during calibration and operationally and the output voltage. Based on the total charge drawn and temperature (for temperature dependent battery types), the battery state of charge is estimated.

摘要： In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a controller to control a voltage regulator. The controller may have a first comparator circuit to compare a first reference voltage to a feedback voltage. In turn, the first comparator circuit may include: a first comparator having a first input terminal to receive the feedback voltage and a second input terminal to receive the reference voltage and an output node to output an error signal based on the comparison; and a first pre-charge circuit coupled between the first input terminal and the output node configured to pre-charge a first portion of a compensation network to a pre-charge level. The first controller may further include a second comparator circuit coupled to the first comparator circuit compare the error signal to a ramp signal and to generate a first control output to control a power train of the voltage regulator in a first mode of operation.
