Abstract:
A digital control system for voltage regulation and a method thereof are disclosed. The digital control system includes an adjustable voltage regulation circuit having multiple discrete conversion ratios, an error generator, a digital controller and a conversion ratio controller. The adjustable voltage regulation circuit, the error generator, the digital controller and the conversion ratio controller form a closed loop control system. The adjustable voltage regulation circuit includes a conversion ratio controlling terminal receiving a conversion ratio signal. The error generator compares an output voltage of the adjustable voltage regulation circuit with a reference voltage to generate an error voltage, and the digital controller outputs a digital control signal to the conversion ratio controller according to the error voltage. The conversion ratio controller outputs the conversion ratio signal to the conversion ratio controlling terminal, so as to use one of the discrete conversion ratios to generate the output voltage.
