In the embodiment of the invention, in case external power source is connected to SOC (system on a chip), supply unit just begins to start under the effect of first reference voltage immediately in the sheet, and other install the control of any reset signal and enable signal not to be subjected to internal system.
Fig. 1 shows the structural principle of the SOC (system on a chip) that the embodiment of the invention provides, and for convenience of description, only shows part related to the present invention.
With reference to Fig. 1, SOC (system on a chip) 1 comprises supply unit 11, resetting means 12, functional device 13 and 14 4 parts of Performance Evaluation device in the sheet.SOC (system on a chip) is connected with external power source 2, and external power source 2 can be battery or other power supply maker, but it can only provide correct supply voltage for partial circuit in the SOC (system on a chip).

In step S21, the feed regulator isolator in the sheet in the supply unit starts immediately; Reset circuit sends the reset enable signal functional device and is in reset mode, and delay circuit is started working.
In case external power source is connected to SOC (system on a chip), the clock generator and first reference voltage generating circuit in the sheet in the supply unit must be established beginning work by cable immediately, clock generator produces the needed clock signal of feed regulator isolator, first reference voltage generating circuit produces needed first reference voltage of feed regulator isolator, feed regulator isolator normally starts under the control of the clock signal and first reference voltage immediately then, owing to be not subjected to the control of any reset signal and enable signal when supply unit starts in the sheet, promptly do not need to wait for after other device of SOC (system on a chip) sends any signal just to begin to start, therefore improved the toggle speed of SOC (system on a chip) greatly.
When external power source is connected to SOC (system on a chip), reset circuit produces reset signal immediately, functional device is resetted, avoid functional device in sheet, to cause misoperation in the supply unit start-up course with regard to starting working, delay circuit is started working simultaneously, and the time inner control of waiting in time-delay masks the needed clock signal of functional device operate as normal.
In step S22, delay circuit is finished the time delays that sets, and functional device begins operate as normal.
In the embodiment of the invention, functional device comprises the subfunction unit that a plurality of operating voltage are inequality, for further improving the toggle speed of SOC (system on a chip), just start working after making functional device not need to wait until the supply voltage complete stability that supply unit produces in the sheet, difference according to each subfunction cell operation voltage in the functional device, correspondence is provided with a plurality of delay times in delay circuit, delay circuit is finished after the time delays that sets, clock signal is delivered to functional device, and the reset signal of reset circuit disappears, thereby the subfunction unit begins operate as normal.
Further, for guaranteeing the performance of the supply voltage of supply unit functions of physical supply device in the sheet, SOC (system on a chip) further comprises a Performance Evaluation device, and described Performance Evaluation device comprises a Performance Evaluation circuit; Between step S21 and step S22, also comprise the steps:
In step S2111, whether the supply voltage performance that Performance Evaluation circuitry evaluates feed regulator isolator produces reaches requirement, whether vary with temperature the violent or supply voltage value of comparison as supply voltage value and accurately do not reach the target that sets, be then to enter step S2112, otherwise enter step S2113.
Wherein, the Performance Evaluation circuit not necessarily needs to wait in the sheet just starts working behind the supply unit complete stability, just starts working after the supply voltage that it can supply unit be exported in sheet rises to a certain degree, can further improve the toggle speed of SOC (system on a chip) like this.
In step S2112, the Performance Evaluation circuit quits work, and the supply voltage of feed regulator isolator keeps original performance.
In step S2113, feed regulator isolator is adjusted signal according to the performance of Performance Evaluation circuit, promotes the power source performance that is produced.
After feed regulator isolator is adjusted the supply voltage of self exporting, return a Performance Detection signal to the performance evaluation circuits, the Performance Evaluation circuit is assessed the supply voltage performance of feed regulator isolator output once more, repeats above-mentioned steps and meets the demands up to this supply voltage performance.
Further, the Performance Evaluation device further comprises second reference voltage generating circuit and the voltage reference selector switch that is used to produce second reference voltage.
Among the step S2114, can Performance Evaluation circuitry evaluates first reference voltage meet the demands.
Among the step S2115, if can not meet the demands, voltage reference selector switch control output second reference voltage is to functional device.
The step mark that should be appreciated that the embodiment of the invention and claim only is used in reference to for this step, and is not used in the sequencing that limits the step execution.
