ABSTRACT:
A switching regulator includes a reference voltage generator and a switching-regulating module. The reference voltage generator receives a digital control signal and generates a reference voltage according to the digital control signal. The switching-regulating module is connected to the reference voltage generator and generates an output voltage according to the reference voltage. The value of the digital control signal is gradually increased to make the reference voltage being gradually increased at the initial stage of the activation of the switching regulator.
