In addition, this control module detects the level of the first supply voltage VDD, and if this first supply voltage VDD be brought down below particular level, this first supply voltage VDD and generate output signal node-B then boosts.
In addition, as shown in Figure 6, comprise arithmetic logic unit 510, be used for control signal EN and transmission signals are carried out logical operation according to the booster circuit unit of remote controllers of the present invention, and boosting unit 520, be used for generating booster voltage in response to the output signal of this arithmetic logic unit.
In addition, shown in Fig. 6 and 7, the Date Conversion Unit of remote controllers comprises the 5th phase inverter 610 according to the present invention, and this is used for carrying out anti-phase to transmission signals; The tenth MOS transistor 620, its gate terminal links to each other with the output terminal of the 5th phase inverter, and first end links to each other with second source voltage GND; The 11 MOS transistor 630, transmission signals are applied to its gate terminal, and its first end links to each other with second source voltage GND, and second end links to each other with the node that is used to generate output signal node-B; The 12 MOS transistor 640, its first end links to each other with booster voltage, and second end links to each other with second end of the tenth MOS transistor 620, and gate terminal links to each other with the node that is used to generate output signal node-B; And the 13 MOS transistor 650, its first end links to each other with boosting, second end links to each other with the node that is used to generate output signal node-B, and gate terminal connects second end of the tenth MOS transistor 620 and second end of the 12 MOS transistor 640 publicly.
This transmission signals is for corresponding to the internal signal of the button that is pressed, it be generate by button input port unit and be transferred to the destination by infrared LED.
Wherein, as shown in Figure 9, if transmission signals is the GND level, then this infrared LED is in ON (connection) state, and if transmission signals is the VDD level, then this infrared LED is in OFF (disconnection) state.Certainly, this is that it has caused the opposite phase of transmission signals because being suitable for the MOS transistor of Date Conversion Unit is nmos pass transistor.
At this moment, the tenth MOS transistor 620 and the 11 MOS transistor 630 are nmos pass transistor, and the 12 MOS transistor 640 and the 13 MOS transistor 650 are the PMOS transistor.
Below the principle of work that an embodiment of the present invention will be described.If first supply voltage is higher than predetermined specific voltage level, then forbid the output signal EN of this supply voltage detecting unit 322, make can the not boost first supply voltage VDD and because it is a booster voltage and export first supply voltage of this booster circuit unit 321.If the first supply voltage VDD is brought down below specific voltage level, then enable this output signal EN from this point, and this booster circuit unit 321 this first supply voltage VDD that can boost.If the transmission signals of output is the high output signal EN that enables simultaneously, then output signal node-B is transferred to lowly, and the 4th MOS transistor 300 is disconnected, thereby this infrared LED 310 also stops luminous.
At this moment, rest on the level of the first supply voltage VDD as the booster voltage of the output of booster circuit unit 321, and on the contrary, if transmission signals is low, then the booster voltage as the output of booster circuit unit 321 has become booster voltage.Then, this booster voltage has been provided for Date Conversion Unit 323, and like this, as shown in Figure 9, this output signal node-B has just arrived the voltage level after boosting.Therefore, the grid voltage of the 4th MOS transistor 300 becomes and is higher than the first supply voltage VDD, thereby has compared with prior art demonstrated the current characteristics after improving, and wherein in the prior art, grid voltage becomes the level of the first supply voltage VDD.Therefore, compared with prior art, sent stronger light by the infrared LED 310 that improves the after-current driving, and farther transmission range is provided.
When the 9th MOS transistor 524 was disconnected, this first supply voltage VDD was applied to negative (-) end of the 5th capacitor 526.Therefore, be added charging voltage generation booster voltage to the capacitor 526 of the first supply voltage VDD, when wherein transmission signals is high this capacitor 526 charged and this first supply voltage VDD is applied to bearing (-) end, then, with this charging voltage output.
In addition, as shown in Figure 8, as the pullup resistor that is embedded in according to the present invention in the button input port unit, wherein this button input port unit reads the button input from key-press matrix 370, be equal to the polymerization of pull-up resistor, active or N well resistor 830 links to each other with the 15 MOS transistor 810 serially, and wherein the 15 MOS transistor 810 is responsible for switching on and off this pullup resistor.Therefore, the resistance when having reduced low-voltage gathers way, and like this, has just solved the problems of the prior art, that is, the increase of resistance has reached the degree of button off resistance.Therefore, satisfied the work under 1.5V or lower low-voltage, and under the condition of supply voltage 3V, worked.
This is because when the voltage that is applied to node B when being high, the resistance that is applied to field effect transistor (FET) reduces, like this, and only just can be at the enough electric currents of FET 300 acquisitions by the voltage of 1.5V.

This booster circuit unit 321 or 421 uses control signal EN and transmission signals to generate booster voltage.
At this moment, because the first supply voltage VDD is higher than predetermined specific voltage level, therefore when control signal EN is disabled, the signal that passes AND door 512 just is fixed to low, and has nothing to do with the state of transmission signals.The 4th converter 521 with the output signal of AND door 512 anti-phase be high.At this moment, the 7th MOS transistor 522, it is a nmos pass transistor, is switched on, and the 8th MOS transistor 523, it is the PMOS transistor, is disconnected.In addition, owing to the 7th MOS transistor is switched on, so the 9th MOS transistor 524, it is the PMOS transistor, also is switched on as mentioned above.
In addition, by first impact damper 525 output signal of AND door 512 is applied to negative (-) end of capacitor 526 as second source voltage GND, and the first supply voltage VDD that passes the 9th MOS transistor 524 that is switched on is applied to just (+) end, thereby capacitor is charged.Do not have the first boosted supply voltage to be output as booster voltage, it is the output of booster circuit unit 321 or 421.
If this first supply voltage is brought down below specific voltage level and control signal EN is activated, then start working in this booster circuit unit 321 or 421.
At this moment, if transmission signals is high, for low, and therefore, the signal that passes the AND door is fixed to low the signal that then passes the 3rd converter 511 by anti-phase.At this moment, as mentioned above, because the 9th MOS transistor 524 is switched on, therefore the booster voltage as the output of booster circuit unit 321 or 421 is just identical with first supply voltage.
On the other hand, if transmission signals is low, for high, therefore, the signal that passes the AND door becomes height to the signal that then passes the 3rd converter 511 by anti-phase.
At this moment, opposite with above-mentioned situation, the 7th MOS transistor 522, it is a nmos pass transistor, is disconnected, and the 8th MOS transistor 523, it is the PMOS transistor, is switched on.In addition, owing to the 8th MOS transistor 523 is switched on, so the 9th MOS transistor 524, it is the PMOS transistor, is disconnected.
When the 9th MOS transistor 524 was disconnected, this first supply voltage VDD was applied to negative (-) end of electric capacity 526.Therefore, be added charging voltage generation booster voltage to the capacitor 526 of the first supply voltage VDD, when wherein transmission signals is high this capacitor 526 charged and this first supply voltage VDD is applied to bearing (-) end, then, booster voltage is exported.

If transmission signals is high, then the 11 MOS transistor 630 and the 12 MOS transistor 640 are switched on, and the tenth MOS transistor 620 and the 13 MOS transistor 650 are disconnected.Therefore, this first output signal node-B is outputted as low, and the 4th or the 5th MOS transistor 300 or 400 is disconnected.At this moment, the electric current corresponding to the first supply voltage VDD is output as output current.
On the other hand, if transmission signals is low, then the tenth MOS transistor 620 and the 13 MOS transistor 650 are switched on, and the 11 MOS transistor 630 and the 12 MOS transistor 640 are disconnected.Therefore, booster voltage is output as the first output signal node-B, and the 4th or the 5th MOS transistor 300 or 400 is switched on.Therefore, even when the first supply voltage VDD of low-voltage state, also show current characteristics corresponding to high-tension output current.
Though in the description of carrying out the 4th and the 5th MOS transistor 300 and 400 is limited to nmos pass transistor, this is for convenience of explanation, and also can adopt the PMOS transistor according to identical mode.
Fig. 9 is for when first supply voltage is lower than particular level, according to the comparison diagram between the working waveform figure of prior art and output current pumping of the present invention.
Referring to Fig. 9, be understandable that, when the first supply voltage VDD is lower than specific voltage, when transmission signals by anti-phase when low from height, output signal node-A according to prior art is changed into VDD from GND, and output signal node-B according to the present invention is changed into from GND and boosts to the booster voltage that is higher than the first supply voltage VDD.On the contrary, when the first supply voltage VDD was higher than particular level, output signal node-B of the present invention is also the same with output signal node-A of the prior art to change VDD into from GND.
