Embodiment
Below in conjunction with Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, describe instantiation of the present invention in detail.
As shown in Figure 2, the wake-up circuit of the present invention's proposition comprises digital correction logic circuit 4, rectifier 5, variable voltage divider 6, simple voltage check device 7, the mains switch K of voltage ratio 1Control structure 8, mains switch K 2Control structure 9, voltage comparator 10 and with the voltage-reference 11 of temperature and supply independent.Wherein, rectifier 5 is converted to voltage signal V with the input signal that receives 1, realization is converted into energy intensity the function of the voltage amplitude of direct current.V 2Be V 1Through exporting one road signal, the dividing potential drop coefficient S of voltage divider 6 after voltage divider 6 dividing potential drops nProvide by digital correction logic circuit 4, then, voltage V 2Be input in the simple voltage check device 7 and carry out voltage detecting, in case surpassed the threshold value of voltage check device 7, the output V of voltage check device 7 when its amplitude 3To turn on the power switch K 1Control structure 8.Mains switch K 1Control structure 8 conductings after, voltage comparator 10 and voltage-reference 11 together power on.Voltage comparator 10 will compare the output voltage V of rectifier 5 1Output V with voltage-reference RefSize, its comparative result V 4Be used for controlling mains switch K 2Control structure 9, the supply access of control system load 3.
The one side of present embodiment provides the high accuracy energy measuring.From the circuit structure that provides as can be known, the mains switch K of final decision system load 3 2The control signal of control structure 9 turn-on and turn-off are V 1Same V RefThe result who compares.Because V RefBeing the output with the voltage-reference 11 of temperature and supply independent, is a stable level that does not change with operational environment, therefore, wake-up circuit described in the present embodiment to wake detection up be accurate and stable.
Present embodiment has been realized the function of digital zero offset capability on the other hand.In the circuit design of reality, simple voltage check device 7 can use the benchmark of the turnover voltage of transistorized threshold voltage or gun stocks as voltage detecting.Because the temperature the when turnover voltage of transistorized threshold voltage and gun stocks can be with semiconductor fabrication process and circuit working changes the detection voltage inaccuracy of this step voltage checkout gear.Yet the dividing potential drop coefficient of voltage divider 6 is automatic digital correction circuit 4 bases voltage comparative result V accurately 4Judged result V at simple voltage check device 7 3The basis on revise back output, so just automatically offset the error that simple voltage check device 7 may exist.
Present embodiment provides a kind of implementation of low-power consumption wake-up circuit on the other hand.For wake-up circuit, low-power consumption is divided into two parts.From the load of input signal, because the output loading of rectifier 5 only has only a voltage divider 5, power consumption may be limited to the order of magnitude of nW.From the load of battery, because in the wake-up circuit that proposes, the supply access that has the voltage comparator 10 of quiescent dissipation and voltage-reference 11 is by mains switch K 1Control structure 8 control, mains switch K when simple voltage check device 7 detects input signal amplitude and surpasses its threshold value only 1Just conductings of control structure 8, and in most cases, voltage comparator 10 and voltage-reference 11 are in resting state, therefore, under resting state, the load of battery is zero.
As shown in Figure 3, in Fig. 3, one 32 voltage divider such as branch such as grade 12 and electrical level selector 13 have constituted the voltage divider 6 of a variable voltage ratio together, and the dividing potential drop coefficient is by the input S of electrical level selector 1-5The signal of this 5 bit decides.Gun stocks 14 has played the effect of simple voltage check device 7.PMOS manages M S115 and M S216 have played mains switch K 1, K 2And the effect of their control structure 8-9.Band gap reference 18 is voltage-references 11 that all have nothing to do with temperature and supply voltage, and it provides a reference level to hysteresis comparator 17.Hysteresis comparator 17 has played the effect of voltage comparator 10, and introducing lag function is in order to resist the influence of noise and signal fluctuation.
When input signal is zero, rectifier 5 output voltage V 1Be " 0 " that its arbitrary proportion voltage after partial amplitude also is " 0 ", gun stocks 14 is output as height, mains switch M S115 turn-off, and band gap reference 18 and hysteresis comparator 17 are not all worked, simultaneously, and mains switch M S216 also turn-off, and the power path of system load 3 is cut off, and system is in resting state, does not have quiescent dissipation.When having input signal, the output of rectifier 5 no longer is " 0 ", its output voltage V 1Relevant with the intake size, energy is big more, V 1Amplitude high more.Under initial condition, the gating signal S of digital correction logic circuit 4 outputs 1-5A road the highest voltage V of output partial pressure value such as gating 32 voltage dividers such as branch such as grade D1, make V 2=V D1At this moment, gun stocks 14 will be according to V 2With its upset level V mBetween magnitude relationship, if V 2<V m, gun stocks 14 is output as low, and PMOS manages M S115 turn-off, and system load 3 still is in resting state.If V 2>V m, gun stocks 14 is output as low, thereby makes PMOS pipe M S1The power path of band gap reference 18 and hysteresis comparator 17 is opened in 15 conductings.After band gap reference 18 powers on, a reference level V who has nothing to do with supply voltage and circuit working temperature will be generated Ref, hysteresis comparator 17 is V relatively 1And V RefBetween magnitude relationship, if V 1>V Ref, turn-on power switch M then S216, opening power 2 is to the power path of system load 3, and whole system is waken up.If V 1<V Ref, digital correction logic circuit 4 will change gating signal S 1-5, successively by V D2To V D32Gating V 1Partial pressure value, until V 2<V m, turn-off M S1Till 15, thereby the power path of cut-out band gap reference 18 and hysteresis comparator 17 makes power supply 2 not have quiescent dissipation.Simultaneously, because digital correction logic circuit 4 has been corrected the dividing potential drop coefficient of voltage divider according to the comparative result of hysteresis comparator, so, when the intensity of input signal changes rectifier 5 output V 1Amplitude when changing, use the voltage ratio result that gun stocks 14 carries out will be with to use accurate band gap reference 18 and hysteresis comparator 17 to carry out voltage ratio result consistent, thereby under the situation that does not increase the quiescent current power consumption, solved the problem that independent simple voltage check device 7 can't be realized precise voltage detection.
It should be noted last that, above embodiment is only unrestricted in order to technical scheme of the present invention to be described, although the present invention is had been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiment, those of ordinary skill in the art is to be understood that, can make amendment or be equal to replacement technical scheme of the present invention, and not breaking away from the spirit and scope of technical solution of the present invention, it all should be encompassed in the middle of the technical scheme scope of the present invention.
