Abstract:
A digital regulator includes a voltage comparison circuit, a counter, a decoder and a switch circuit. At an initialization phase, the voltage comparison circuit is configured to compare the reference voltage signal and a first signal to output a first level signal, and the counter is configured to initialize and output an initialization signal as a control signal according to the first level signal. At an operation phase, the voltage comparison circuit is configured to compare the reference voltage signal and an output terminal of the switch circuit to output a second level signal, and the counter is configured to count according to the second level signal and output the control signal. The decoder is configured to turn on the plurality of switch units according to the control signal from the counter.

Claim (Index 1):
A digital regulator, comprising:\n a voltage comparison circuit having an input terminal, a feedback input terminal, and an output terminal, wherein the input terminal of the voltage comparison circuit receives a reference voltage signal; a counter having an input terminal electrically coupled to the output terminal of the voltage comparison circuit; a decoder having an input terminal electrically coupled to an output terminal of the counter; and a switch circuit comprising a plurality of switch units, wherein the switch circuit has an input terminal electrically coupled to an output terminal of the decoder; wherein the voltage comparison circuit is configured to, at an initialization phase, receive a first signal at the feedback input terminal, and compare the reference voltage signal and the first signal to output a first level signal, and at an operation phase, connect the feedback input terminal to an output terminal of the switch circuit, and output a second level signal by comparing the reference voltage signal with an output voltage of the switch circuit; and wherein the counter is configured to, at the initialization phase, initialize a control signal as an initialization signal according to the first level signal and output the control signal, and at the operation phase, count according to the second level signal and output the control signal; and wherein the decoder is configured to turn on the plurality of switch units according to the control signal from the counter.
