Description

Receiving circuit
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of receiving circuit of data driver, and particularly relate to a kind of in order to receive low-swing differential signals (Reduced swing differential signal, receiving circuit RSDS).
Background technology
Fig. 1 shows traditional low-swing differential signals (reduced swing differentialsignal, receiving circuit 100 RSDS).Receiving circuit 100 is in order to reception input data signal D1 and P1, and according to input time pulse signal C1, output output document signal S1 to S4.Wherein, input data signal D1, P1 and input time pulse signal C1 are low-swing differential signals.
Please refer to Fig. 1, comparator 131 receives input time pulse signal C1, and output according to this is time pulse signal C2 relatively.Relatively time pulse signal C2 is sent to flip-flop 117,119,128 and 130 through cabling 132 and buffer 133.Relatively time pulse signal C2 passes through cabling 132, buffer 133 and inverter 134 in addition, transfers anti-phase relatively time pulse signal C2 ' to, is sent to flip-flop 118 and 129.Wherein, flip-flop 117,119,128 and 130 is positive edge triggering.Flip- flop 118 and 129 is negative edge triggering.
Comparator 111 receives input data signal D1, and output according to this is document signal D2 relatively.Relatively document signal D2 is sent to flip- flop 117 and 118 respectively through cabling 112 and buffer 113 to 116.
Flip- flop 117 and 118 according to comparing time pulse signal C2 and anti-phase relatively time pulse signal C2 ', is obtained output document signal S2 and negative edge document signal T1 by comparing document signal D2 respectively.Wherein, the flip-flop 119 that negative edge document signal T1 triggers through positive edge is again adjusted sequential according to comparing time pulse signal C2, obtains exporting document signal S1.
Similarly, comparator 121 receives input data signal P1, and output according to this is document signal P2 relatively.Relatively document signal P2 is sent to flip- flop 128 and 129 respectively through cabling 122 and buffer 123 to 127.Flip- flop 128 and 129 according to comparing time pulse signal C2 and anti-phase relatively time pulse signal C2 ', is obtained output document signal S4 and negative edge document signal T2 by comparing document signal P2 respectively.Wherein, the flip-flop 130 that negative edge document signal T2 triggers through positive edge is again adjusted sequential according to comparing time pulse signal C2, obtains exporting document signal S3.Data comparator 111,121 is identical with the circuit of clock pulse comparator 131.
Because it is excessive that input time pulse signal C1 falls behind the phase difference of input data signal D1, P1, therefore, behind cabling 112 and 122 buffer is set, and comes retardation ratio than document signal D2 and P2.
In addition, because in traditional receiving circuit 100, because the distance of the flip-flop of comparator 111,121 and correspondence is unequal, so the length of cabling 112 and 122 is unequal.Therefore, after relatively document signal P1 and P2 transmitted through cabling 112 and 122 respectively, the time of delay was unequal.Therefore, need to adjust time of delay with the buffer of varying number.For comparing document signal P1, use four buffers 113 to 116.For comparing document signal P2, use five buffers 123 to 127.Thus, relatively document signal P1 is through the time of delay of cabling 112 and buffer 113 to 116, with relatively document signal P2 can be more consistent through the cabling 122 and the time of delay of buffer 123 to 127.
Yet buffer is very responsive to the change of driving voltage, when driving voltage changes, can change the time of delay of buffer.The tradition receiving circuit is should be under different driving voltage, and the time of delay of buffer can be different, so will make the comparison document signal through behind cabling and the buffer, its change time of delay.
Fig. 2 shows traditional receiving circuit under different driving voltage, through behind cabling 112 and the buffer 113 to 116, and received comparison document signal D2 of flip-flop 117 and an example of the graph of a relation of time pulse signal C2 relatively.Please refer to Fig. 2.Curve 201 is for comparing the waveform of time pulse signal.Curve 202 and 203 is respectively that traditional receiving circuit is under 3.3 volts at driving voltage, and relatively document signal D2 is at retention time situation (hold timecondition) and the waveform that time situation (setup time condition) is set.
Curve 204 and 205 is respectively that traditional receiving circuit 100 is under 3.6 volts at driving voltage, and relatively document signal D2 is at retention time situation and the waveform that the time situation is set. Curve 206 and 207 is respectively that traditional receiving circuit 100 is under 2.2 volts at driving voltage, and relatively document signal D2 is at retention time situation and the waveform that the time situation is set.
When time tf, curve 201 forms negative edge.Triggering with negative edge is example, waveform 202,204 and 206 with respect to the 201 formed retention times of curve (hold time) th1, th2, th3 inequality.Formed that time (setup time) ts1, ts2, ts3 are set is inequality with respect to curve 201 for curve 203,205 and 207.As shown in Figure 2, different driving voltage can change the time of delay of buffer, and makes that relatively document signal changes with the phase difference that compares time pulse signal.
Therefore, for comparing document signal D1, after through cabling 112 and buffer 113 to 116, when time that is provided with that time that is provided with that comparison document signal D1 is corresponding with comparing time pulse signal C2 and retention time (hold time) can't meet flip-flop 117 and retention time, flip-flop 117 promptly may be obtained wrong output document signal S2.From the above, when wanting that traditional receiving circuit is applied to different driving voltage, need to consider the influence of driving voltage to buffer, and make use very inconvenient.
In addition, produce anti-phase relatively time pulse signal C2 ' with inverter 134, can make anti-phase comparison time pulse signal C2 ' and comparison time pulse signal C2 produce phase difference, promptly relatively time pulse signal C2 ' makes that with relatively time pulse signal C2 is asynchronous the flip- flop 118 and 129 that negative edge triggers may be by relatively document signal D1 and D2 obtain wrong negative edge document signal T1 and T2.

Embodiment
First embodiment
Please refer to Fig. 3, it shows the circuit diagram according to the receiving circuit of first embodiment.The receiving circuit 300 of first embodiment is in order to reception input data signal A1, and according to input time pulse signal CK1, output output signal Q1.Wherein input data signal A1 and input time pulse signal CK1 be low-swing differential signals (reduced swing differentialsignal, RSDS).Receiving circuit 300 comprises comparator 311 and 321, repeat circuit 312 and 322, with flip-flop 313.In first embodiment, flip-flop 313 is an example with the D type flip-flop (D-flip flop) that positive edge triggers.
Please refer to Fig. 3, comparator 311 is to drive with bias current B1, receives input data signal A1, and output is compared document signal A2 to repeat circuit 312.Relatively document signal A2 inputs to flip-flop 313 by repeat circuit 312.
Comparator 321 is to drive with bias current B2, receives input time pulse signal CK1, and output is compared time pulse signal CK2 to repeat circuit 322.Relatively time pulse signal CK2 inputs to flip-flop 313 by repeat circuit 322.Flip-flop according to comparing time pulse signal CK2, is obtained output document signal Q1 by comparing document signal A2 again.
The one at least of bias current B1 and B2 is adjusted to and makes the comparison document signal A2 of comparator 311 and 321 outputs and relatively time pulse signal CK2 is formed that the time that is provided with and the retention time that time (setup time) and retention time (hold time) are met flip-flop 313 be set.
Because it is excessive that input time pulse signal CK1 falls behind the phase difference of input data signal A1, so need to adjust relatively time pulse signal CK2 and the phase difference that compares document signal A2.Change the time of delay of comparator output because different bias plasma fails to be convened for lack of a quorum, so can adjust comparison time pulse signal and the phase difference that compares document signal by adjusting the bias current that drives comparator.
Therefore, be with different bias current B1 and B2 at the receiving circuit 300 of first embodiment, drive comparator 311 and 321, wherein B2 is greater than B1.After comparator 321 drove with bigger bias current B2, the past reach of the phase place of the comparison time pulse signal A2 of feasible output improved and compares document signal A2 and the phase difference that compares time pulse signal CK2.So, make that the comparison document signal A2 of output respectively and time pulse signal CK2 relatively are formed the time that is provided with and the retention time that time and retention time are met flip-flop 313 be set, flip-flop 313 is correctly obtained exported document signal Q1.
Because the bias current and the applied driving voltage of receiving circuit of driving comparator are irrelevant, when receiving circuit is applied to different driving voltage, can not influence comparator output relatively document signal and the time of delay of comparing time pulse signal.Thus, relatively document signal and the phase difference of comparison time pulse signal are met the time that is provided with and the retention time of corresponding flip-flop.Therefore, the receiving circuit of first embodiment can directly apply to different driving voltage.
Second embodiment
Fig. 4 shows the circuit diagram of the receiving circuit of second embodiment.The receiving circuit 400 of second embodiment is in order to reception input data signal M1 and N1, and according to input time pulse signal K1, obtains output document signal VP1 to VP4 by input data signal M1 and N1.Wherein, input data signal M1, N1 and input time pulse signal K1 are low-swing differential signals.Receiving circuit 400 comprises data comparator 411 and 421, clock pulse comparator 431, repeat circuit 410,420 and 430, buffer 413,414,423,424,433 and 443, flip-flop 415,416,417,425,426 and 427.Wherein, flip-flop 415,417,425 and 427 is that the D type flip-flop that triggers with positive edge is an example.Flip- flop 416 and 426 is that the D type flip-flop that triggers with negative edge is an example.
Comparator 431 is to drive with bias current BA3, receives input time pulse signal K1, exports the first comparison time pulse signal K2 and second respectively and compares time pulse signal K3 to repeat circuit 430 and 440.Wherein, the phase place of the first comparison time pulse signal K2 and the second comparison time pulse signal K3 is identical, polarity is opposite.First compares time pulse signal K2 inputs to the flip-flop 415,417,425 and 427 that positive edge triggers by repeat circuit 430.Second compares time pulse signal K3 inputs to the flip- flop 416 and 426 that negative edge triggers by repeat circuit 440.
Comparator 411 is to drive with bias current BA1, receives input data signal M1, and output is compared document signal M2 to repeat circuit 410.Relatively document signal M2 inputs to flip- flop 415 and 416 by repeat circuit 410.Flip- flop 415 and 416 compares relatively time pulse signal K3 of time pulse signal K2 and second according to first respectively again, obtains output document signal VP2 and negative edge document signal VN1 by comparing document signal M2.The flip-flop 417 that positive edge triggers receives negative edge document signal VN1, adjusts the sequential of negative edge document signal VN1, the output document signal VP1 that output is corresponding.
Comparator 421 is to drive with bias current BA2, receives input data signal N1, and output is compared document signal N2 to repeat circuit 420.Relatively document signal N2 inputs to flip- flop 425 and 426 by repeat circuit 420.Flip- flop 425 and 426 compares relatively time pulse signal K3 of time pulse signal K2 and second according to first respectively again, obtains output document signal VP4 and negative edge document signal VN3 by comparing document signal N2.The flip-flop 427 that positive edge triggers receives negative edge document signal VN3, adjusts the sequential of negative edge document signal VN3, the output document signal VP3 that output is corresponding.
Because it is excessive that input time pulse signal K1 falls behind the phase difference of input data signal M1, N1, therefore adjust the time of delay of the output of comparator 411,421 and 431 with bias current BA1, BA2 and BA3, make comparison document signal M2, N2 that comparator 411,421 and 431 is exported and the phase difference of the first comparison time pulse signal K2, the second comparison time pulse signal K3 be met the time that is provided with and the retention time of pairing flip-flop.
For comparing document signal M2, by adjusting the one at least of bias current BA1 and BA3, adjust the time of delay of the output of comparator 411 and 431, making relatively that document signal M2 and the first comparison time pulse signal K2 are formed is provided with time and retention time, is met the time that is provided with and the retention time of flip-flop 415; And relatively document signal M2 and the second comparison time pulse signal K3 are formed time and retention time be set, met the time that is provided with and the retention time of flip-flop 416.
For example, if the time that is provided with of the employed flip-flop of receiving circuit equated with the retention time, then can adjust bias current BA3, make relatively document signal M2 respectively with first relatively time pulse signal K2, second relatively time pulse signal K3 is formed the time is set equates preferably with the retention time.
Similarly, for comparing document signal N2, adjust the time of delay of the output of comparator 421 and 431 by bias current BA2 and BA3, making relatively that document signal N2 and the first comparison time pulse signal K2 are formed is provided with time and retention time, is met the time that is provided with and the retention time of flip-flop 425; And relatively document signal N2 and the second comparison time pulse signal K3 are formed time and retention time be set, met the time that is provided with and the retention time of flip-flop 426.
From the above, by adjusting the bias current that drives comparator, change the time of delay of the output of comparator, can significantly improve relatively phase difference of time pulse signal of comparison document signal that comparator exports and first, second, to meet the time that is provided with and the retention time of the pairing flip-flop of comparison document signal.
Detailed circuit in this explanation repeat circuit 410,420,430 and 440.Repeat circuit 410 comprises cabling 412, buffer 413 and 414.Relatively document signal M2 is sent to flip- flop 415 and 416 respectively through cabling 412, buffer 413 and 414.
Repeat circuit 420 comprises cabling 422, buffer 423 and 424.Similarly, relatively document signal N2 is sent to flip- flop 425 and 426 respectively through cabling 422, buffer 423 and 424.
Repeat circuit 430 comprises cabling 432 and buffer 433.First compares time pulse signal K2 through cabling 432 and buffer 433, is sent to flip-flop 415,417,425 and 427 respectively.Repeat circuit 440 comprises cabling 442 and buffer 443.Second compares time pulse signal K3 through cabling 442 and buffer 443, is sent to flip- flop 416 and 426 respectively.
In Fig. 4, cabling 412 is adjusted into equal in length with cabling 422.In addition, the quantity of the buffer that is connected also equates, in a second embodiment, is that to be connected two buffers respectively with cabling 412 and 422 be example.
When the distance of comparator 411 with flip-flop 415,416, be longer than the distance of comparator 421 and flip-flop 425,426, expression relatively document signal M2 is sent to time of flip- flop 415 and 416 by comparator 411, and it is long by the time that comparator 421 is sent to flip- flop 425 and 426 to compare document signal N2.Therefore, cabling 422 is extended to the equal in length of its length and cabling 412.Otherwise, then cabling 412 is extended to the equal in length of its length and cabling 422.
And, therefore, can suitably adjust the length of cabling 412,422 and 432,442 because the phase place of input time pulse signal K1 lags behind the phase place of input data signal M1, N1.Adjust first relatively time pulse signal K2 with second relatively time pulse signal K3 the cabling 432 and 442 length of process, making its length than cabling 412,422 is weak point.In addition, also can suitably adjust the quantity of cabling 433 and 443 buffers that are connected.In a second embodiment, be that to be connected a buffer respectively with cabling 433 and 443 be example.
From the above, by the quantity of adjustment track lengths with the buffer that is coupled, also can improve first relatively the time pulse signal K2 and second relatively the time pulse signal K3 and the phase difference of document signal M2, N2 relatively better, make relatively document signal M2, N2 and first compare the time that is provided with and retention time that time pulse signal K2, second phase difference that compares time pulse signal K3 are met pairing flip-flop.
At this effect of second embodiment is described.In a second embodiment, by adjusting the bias current that drives comparator, adjust comparison document signal and first and compare the relatively phase difference of time pulse signal of time pulse signal, second, to meet the time that is provided with and the retention time of corresponding flip-flop, make flip-flop correctly be obtained the output document signal.Because bias current is not subjected to the influence of driving voltage, therefore, when receiving circuit is applied to different driving voltage, can not change bias current.So feasible relatively document signal and first compares time pulse signal, second, and relatively the phase difference of time pulse signal can be along with driving voltage changes and changes.
In addition, document signal and first compares the relatively phase difference of time pulse signal of time pulse signal, second owing to adjusted relatively in comparator, and therefore, the repeat circuit between comparator and flip-flop need not use too much buffer.Because it is bigger that influenced by driving voltage the time of delay of the output of buffer, therefore, the traditional receiving circuit 100 in Fig. 1 uses too much buffer, and the receiving circuit 200 of second embodiment more is not subjected to the influence of driving voltage.
Fig. 5 shows receiving circuit 400 after adjusting bias current BA1 and BA3, under different driving voltage, behind cabling 412, buffer 413 and 414, flip-flop 415 received comparison document signal M2 and first compare an example of the graph of a relation of time pulse signal K2.The retention time of flip-flop 415 and the time that is provided with are for example for equating.
Please refer to Fig. 5.Curve 501 is for comparing the waveform of time pulse signal.Curve 502 and 503 is respectively that receiving circuit 400 is under 3.3 volts at driving voltage, and relatively document signal M2 is at retention time situation (hold time condition) and the waveform that time situation (setup timecondition) is set.
Curve 504 and 505 is respectively that receiving circuit 400 is under 3.6 volts at driving voltage, and relatively document signal M2 is at retention time situation and the waveform that the time situation is set.Curve 506 and 507 is respectively that receiving circuit 400 is under 2.2 volts at driving voltage, and relatively document signal M2 is at retention time situation and the waveform that the time situation is set.
When time T f ', the time pulse signal of curve 501 forms negative edge.If triggering with negative edge is example, formed that time (setup time) ts1 ', ts2 ', ts3 ' are set is all identical with respect to waveform 501 with 507 for curve 503,505, and curve 502,504 with 506 with respect to the 501 formed retention times of waveform (setup time) th1 ', th2 ', th3 ' all identical, meet flip-flop 415 for the requirement that time and retention time are set.
As shown in Figure 5, as the bias current BA1 and the BA3 that adjust comparator 411 and 431, making relatively that document signal M2 and time pulse signal K2 relatively are formed is provided with after time and retention time meet the time that is provided with and retention time of flip-flop 415, different driving voltage can't change the time of delay of comparison document signal M2, and the relatively phase difference change of time pulse signal K2 of feasible relatively document signal M2 and first.
Above-mentioned is that down relatively document signal M2 and time pulse signal K2 relatively are formed is set and the retention time is an example time with different driving voltage, illustrates that the receiving circuit 400 of second embodiment is not influenced by driving voltage.Similarly, after adjusting comparator 421 and 431 bias current BA2 and BA3, even under different driving voltage, relatively document signal N2 and comparison time pulse signal K2 are formed is provided with time and retention time, not influenced by driving voltage.
In addition, in a second embodiment, though the distance of comparator 411 and flip-flop 415,416 is not equal to the distance of comparator 421 and flip-flop 425,426.But by being identical with 422 length adjustment, make that relatively document signal M2 is equal with the time of delay that N2 is sent to corresponding flip-flop, reach the synchronous effect of comparison document signal M2 and N2 cabling 412.
In addition, in a second embodiment, comparator 431 is that output phase identical, opposite polarity first compares relatively time pulse signal K3 of time pulse signal K2 and second.Therefore, before second flip- flop 416 and 426 that relatively the negative edge of time pulse signal K3 output triggers, need pass through inverter, so can not make second to compare time pulse signal K3 and postpone.And traditional receiving circuit 100 of Fig. 1, before relatively time pulse signal inputed to the flip-flop of negative edge triggering, it was anti-phase to need will to compare time pulse signal through inverter earlier, and caused time delay.Therefore, in comparison, the received time pulse signal of all flip-flops of the receiving circuit of second embodiment is synchronously.
Fig. 6 shows the example of circuit diagram of the comparator 431 of receiving circuit 400.Comparator receives input time pulse signal K1 with positive input terminal INP and negative input end INN, and compares relatively time pulse signal K3 of time pulse signal K2 and second by positive output end OUP and negative output terminal OUN output first respectively.
In a second embodiment, receiving circuit 400 is to be example to receive two input data signal M1 and N1, and in the practical application, receiving circuit can receive the low-swing differential document signal of greater number.
Fig. 7 shows the flow chart according to the method for reseptance of the embodiment of the invention, is used for the receiving circuit 300 of the embodiment of the invention.At first, in step 710, drive data comparator 311, make data comparator 311 receive document signal A1, and output is according to this compared document signal A2 to flip-flop 313 with data bias current B1.In step 720, drive clock pulse comparator 321 with clock pulse bias current B2, make clock pulse comparator 321 receive time pulse signal CK1, and output is according to this compared time pulse signal CK2 to flip-flop 313.In step 730, the one at least of adjustment data bias current B1 and clock pulse bias current B2, making that document signal A2 relatively and time pulse signal CK2 relatively are formed is provided with the time that is provided with and the retention time that time and retention time are met flip-flop 313, flip-flop 313 is able to according to relatively document signal A2 and relatively time pulse signal CK2, output output document signal Q1.
Because the input data signal is excessive with the phase difference of input time pulse signal, therefore, the receiving circuit of the first embodiment of the present invention and second embodiment, by adjusting the bias current that drives comparator, make comparator comparison document signal of exporting and the phase difference that compares time pulse signal be met the time that is provided with and the retention time of corresponding flip-flop.And be applied under the different driving voltage when receiving circuit, bias current can't change and change along with driving voltage, makes change time of delay of output of comparator.Therefore, the comparison document signal exported of comparator the and relatively phase difference between time pulse signal can be along with driving voltage changes and change.So receiving circuit of the present invention is applicable to different driving voltage.
In addition, the comparator output phase is identical, and opposite polarity two compare time pulse signal to positive edge triggers and the flip-flop of bearing the edge triggering.With traditional receiving circuit in comparison, do not need before time pulse signal relatively is sent to the flip-flop that negative edge triggers, inverter to be set, and cause positive edge to trigger with to bear the comparison time pulse signal that flip-flop received that edge triggers asynchronous.Therefore, receiving circuit of the present invention compared to traditional receiving circuit, more can correctly be obtained the output document signal according to comparing time pulse signal.
In sum, though the present invention discloses as above with preferred embodiment, so it is not in order to limit the present invention.The ordinary technical staff in the technical field of the invention, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, when being used for a variety of modifications and variations.Therefore, protection scope of the present invention is as the criterion when looking the claims person of defining.
