Description

High reliability power supply clamper esd protection circuit
Technical field
The present invention relates to integrated circuit (IC) chip static discharge (Electronic Static Discharge, ESD) resist technology field, particularly a kind of high reliability power supply clamper esd protection circuit.
Background technology
Among the process of integrated circuit (IC) chip manufacture, encapsulation, test, transportation and use, exist multiple different static discharge pattern, when these electrostatic charges are accumulated on the grid of MOS transistor, because the gate capacitance of MOS transistor is very little, these electrostatic charges can form very large equivalent grid voltage, cause the inefficacy of device or circuit, this is ESD problem.Be accompanied by the scaled rule of integrated circuit characteristic size, gate oxide is done more and more thinlyyer, has caused like this esd protection problem difficulty all the more and important that becomes among the device of nanoscale and circuit design.
The chip of integrated circuit is mainly associated with the external world by input pin, output pin, power pin and ground pin, and input and output pin has corresponding esd protection circuit module conventionally.The corn module of chip generally can be placed between power pin and ground pin, so a reliable power supply clamper esd protection circuit is to guarantee that chip functions module is not subject to the key of ESD damage.Existing power supply clamper esd protection circuit is normally based on such thinking: with a resistance-capacitance (R-C) filter structure as ESD detection circuit; when detecting esd pulse; filter structure provides a signal and opens clamp transistor, then by clamp transistor, discharges ESD electric charge.
A classical example that Figure 1 shows that current power supply clamper esd protection circuit, the Mbig in figure is clamp transistor.When a zooming esd pulse arrives, by the setting of suitable R-C time constant, the voltage of the intersection point of R and C cannot be followed on power pin Vdd immediately to be drawn, be low level the last period that the intersection point of R and C arrives at esd pulse like this in special time, this low level is transmitted to the grid of Mbig by one-level inverter, the grid that makes Mbig is high level, so Mbig is opened to discharge the electric charge of esd pulse accumulation.When R-C time constant was after the past, the voltage of the intersection point of R and C has been caught up with the variation of Vdd and has been become high level, and this high level is inverted to the grid of Mbig, so Mbig is turned off, finishes esd protection process.In the situation that normally powering on, the voltage of Vdd is with a relatively slow velocity pull-up, and at this moment the intersection point of R and C is followed the change in voltage of Vdd always, and Mbig is not opened, and does not consume extra power supply power consumption in the situation that of normal operation.
Although the circuit shown in Fig. 1 is no problem from seeing in logic, along with dwindling of device size, the reliability of its esd protection performance faces huge challenge.The R-C part of constantly dwindling inevitable requirement esd protection module of integrated circuit characteristic size will be done little as far as possible; because the grid voltage of Mbig is just dragged down in the past in R-C time constant; the reducing of R-C time constant will cause Mbig open-interval to shorten, thereby so likely causes ESD electric charge to discharge the incomplete damage that causes internal circuit.Another one aspect; for zooming normal upper piezoelectric voltage; wish that clamp transistor is not opened; be that esd protection circuit is not by false triggering; the esd protection circuit that so anti-error triggering ability is strong also requires a R-C time constant to do very littlely, and this can contradict with the sufficiently long opening time of clamp transistor equally.

The high reliability power supply clamper esd protection circuit of present embodiment uses electric capacity-resistance (C-R) structure to replace R-C to add inverter structure as the detection circuit of esd pulse with respect to first improvements of traditional E SD protective circuit exactly.From in logic, it is substantially the same that R-C adds the voltage curve variation tendency that inverter structure exports under esd pulse with C-R structure, the difference of the two is that R-C adds the voltage that inverter structure exports under esd pulse and has a descending slope faster, and the voltage of C-R structure output declines comparatively slow.This is because traditional inverter all exists a logic threshold voltage, ideally, near logic threshold voltage, the input-output voltage response slope of inverter is infinitely great, in practical application, slope can not be infinitely great, but be also a relative very large value, the decline speed of C-R structure output voltage depends on the time constant of C-R self.Like this under identical resistance, capacitance size arrange, C-R structure just adds than R-C that inverter structure is more late reaches a specific low level.With Hspice, carry out emulation, Figure 4 shows that R-C adds the change in voltage schematic diagram that inverter structure R-C under a specific esd pulse adds inverter structure output node (being the drain electrode of Mp), Fig. 5 is the resistance that electric capacity-resistive module 1 is identical with Fig. 4 size, electric capacity arranges down, the change in voltage schematic diagram of electric capacity-resistive module 1 output node while applying the esd pulse identical with Fig. 4 (R1 and C1 intersection point), comparison diagram 4 and Fig. 5, the difference of the two descending slope is known, electric capacity-the resistive module 1 of present embodiment makes the clamp transistor opening time longer than traditional E SD protective circuit.
The operation principle of the high reliability power supply clamper esd protection circuit of present embodiment is: when the esd pulse that is nanosecond or tens of nanosecond orders when a rise time is added to power pin Vdd, the power pin Vdd that the voltage of the intersection point of described capacitor C 1 and resistance R 1 can be followed high reliability power supply clamper esd protection circuit in present embodiment comparatively fast reaches a high value (being above-mentioned the first response signal), at this moment PMOS transistor Mp1-1 turn-offs, the grid of PMOS transistor Mp2 is pulled down to low level by nmos pass transistor Mn1, then PMOS transistor Mp2 opens, the grid voltage of clamp transistor Mbig1 is moved to high level, clamp transistor Mbig1 starts, Mbig1 starts to discharge the electrostatic charge that described electrostatic discharge pulses is brought.
Next the voltage of the intersection point of described capacitor C 1 and resistance R 1 can decline with a slope being determined by C-R time constant, under ideal situation, the voltage drop of the intersection point of described capacitor C 1 and resistance R 1 is to Vdd-2|Vthp|, afterwards, Mp1-1 and Mp1-2 will open, drawing on the grid voltage of PMOS transistor Mp2, Mp2 is turn-offed, in the situation that ignoring leakage current, now the gate voltage of clamp transistor Mbig1 can be suspended in previous Vdd level, therefore Mbig1 can continue to open, wherein, Vthp represents the transistorized threshold voltage of PMOS.
At the voltage drop of the intersection point of described capacitor C 1 and resistance R 1, during to Vdd-|Vthp| (being above-mentioned the second response signal), PMOS transistor Mp4 enters opening, and the drain voltage of Mp4 is drawn high.Because PMOS transistor Mp4 and capacitor C 2 have formed an equivalent R-C delay structure, thus the drain voltage of Mp4 on draw and have a corresponding R-C time delay.After this time delay, the drain voltage of Mp4 reaches a higher level, the inverter consisting of Mp3 and Mn3, makes the grid voltage of Mp5 become low level, then Mp5 conducting, through the time delay being determined by Mp5 and capacitor C 3, the grid voltage of Mn2 by draw as high level, Mn2 conducting like this, drags down the grid voltage of clamp transistor Mbig1, it is turn-offed, finish to discharge the action of esd pulse.
Before opening with Mn2 after Mp2 turn-offs during this period of time in; in the ideal case; the grid voltage of clamp transistor Mbig1 is suspended in the state that Mp2 turn-offs the power pin Vdd of high reliability power supply clamper esd protection circuit in present embodiment constantly, has so just avoided the phenomenon weakening due to Mbig1 relieving capacity that in Mbig1 release esd pulse process, the power pin Vdd voltage drop of high reliability power supply clamper esd protection circuit causes in present embodiment.
Be worth explanation a bit: the inverter that use clamp transistor opening module the inside and conventional inverter be difference to some extent, this inverter has the effect of two aspects for the opening time that extends Mbig: one, the transistor Mn1 that meets power pin Vdd with grid makes a current source, Mn1 can be always in conducting state, even if Mp1-1 and Mp1-2 open completely like this, also the grid voltage of Mp2 cannot be moved to the high level equating with power pin Vdd on completely, so Mp2 is just than not having Mn1 to do there is slightly strong conductive capability in the situation of current source, so Mn2 needs the more time level of the grid of Mbig1 could be pulled down to below the threshold voltage of Mbig1, cause the longer opening time of Mbig1.Two, the load pipe of making Mp1-1 with the transistor Mp1-2 of grid and drain electrode short circuit, becomes the unlocking condition of Mp1-1: the voltage drop of the intersection point of described capacitor C 1 and resistance R 1 is after Vdd-2|Vthp|.Compare in make the unlocking condition of Vdd-|Vthp| under load pipe without Mp1-2, the intersection point of described capacitor C 1 and resistance R 1 needs a longer time reach a lower level naturally, so also cause Mbig1 open-interval to extend.Fig. 6 is the simulation result of Hspice, the grid voltage of Mp2 (" V2 " in figure) is that the grid voltage (" V1 " in figure) at Mp1-1 drops to about 360mV (with Vdd-2|Vthp| approximately equal) and just starts on obvious to draw, on the grid voltage of Mp2, tentering degree is 665mV left and right simultaneously, rather than 1V (amplitude of the esd pulse that applies is 1V here).Certainly, want the above-mentioned inverter having improved and realize correct logic function, the relative size of pipe is very important, and the size of Mn1 arranges little much than the size of Mp1-1 and Mp1-2 here.
In situation about normally powering on, power pin Vdd with a slower slope by draw, the electric charge of C1 accumulation can be discharged timely by R1 like this, so the intersection point of described capacitor C 1 and resistance R 1, always in a lower level value, makes the grid of Mp2 all the time in high level state, so not conducting of Mp2, make Mn2 grid voltage cannot on draw, in this case, Mbig1 can not be triggered, and has guaranteed correct work-based logic.
For the ease of quantizing the opening time of clamp transistor, using 0.7V as the threshold voltage of clamp transistor, Fig. 7 is that the traditional power supply clamper esd protection circuit shown in Fig. 1 applies after an esd pulse, the grid voltage of clamp transistor changes schematic diagram, Fig. 8 is that the high reliability power supply clamper esd protection circuit shown in Fig. 2 applies after an esd pulse, and the grid voltage of clamp transistor changes schematic diagram, can find out in the traditional power supply clamper esd protection circuit shown in Fig. 1 that the clamp transistor opening time is 64.8ns, in high reliability power supply clamper esd protection circuit shown in Fig. 2, the circuit clamp transistor opening time is 608.9ns, under onesize electric capacity and resistance and same esd pulse, high reliability power supply clamper esd protection circuit by present embodiment has obtained 9 times of clamp transistor opening times more than traditional E SD protective circuit, this given undoubtedly the design of nanoscale circuit larger R, C time constant is done little nargin, R, C time constant is done littlely, circuit for fast powering-up to charge normal voltage immunocompetence just stronger, this has just in time solved the problem of esd protection performance reliability under above-mentioned nanoscale.
Above execution mode is only for illustrating the present invention; and be not limitation of the present invention; the those of ordinary skill in relevant technologies field; without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; can also make a variety of changes and modification; therefore all technical schemes that are equal to also belong to category of the present invention, and scope of patent protection of the present invention should be defined by the claims.
