Abstract
DPWM is the core of digital control switching power supply. To address the conflict between the high resolution of DPWM and the system operating frequency, this paper designs a high-resolution DPWM scheme based on FPGA. A 4ns 14 bit low-resolution delay unit is implemented based on the traditional counter-comparator structure, and a 100ps 7 bit high-resolution delay unit is achieved using a carry delay chain. The novel hybrid structure proposed in this paper can independently adjust the high-resolution delay of the rising and falling edges and has a real-time self-calibration unit to ensure the adjustment accuracy of the delay line and prevent the gradient adjustment from crossing the low-resolution period and causing offset stability issues. This architecture uses a cascaded carry delay chain design and global PWM drive via a BUFG, enabling automatic global routing and improving system portability. Experimental results demonstrate that the high-resolution delay units of this architecture are all below 100 ps, with an average delay of 67 ps, and it has high linearity and monotonicity.
