Abstract | A novel cascoded flipped voltage follower (CAFVF) based output-capacitorless low-dropout (LDO) regulator is proposed and implemented in 0.18-μm CMOS technology. With a cascode current source (CCS) embedded into the CAFVF structure, the proposed LDO regulator achieves 58.6-dB DC gain in heavy loading condition (100 mA), which is 44-dB for the conventional CAFVF counterpart under identical conditions. The cascode compensation technique is introduced to widen the loop bandwidth and reduce the minimal loading requirement. With a 5-pF compensation capacitor, the minimum load current to keep the proposed LDO regulator stable is reduced to 50 μA. In addition, the unity-gain frequency (UGF) is extended from 1.51 MHz to 2.36 MHz in 100-mA loading condition. Moreover, an accurate stability analysis without ignoring any channel resistance has been presented in this work. Simulation results show that the LDO regulator consumes an ultra-low quiescent current (Iq) of 14 μA for input voltage ranging from 1.2 V to 1.8 V, with a dropout voltage (Vdrop) of 200 mV. |
