Embodiment
Hereinafter in conjunction with the accompanying drawings illustrated embodiment is elaborated, but the embodiment that is provided not is the scope that contains in order to restriction the present invention, and the description of structure running is non-in order to limit the order of its execution, any structure that reconfigures by assembly, the device with impartial effect that produces is all the scope that the present invention is contained.Wherein accompanying drawing is not mapped according to life size only for the purpose of description.
Fig. 1 is the schematic diagram that illustrates a kind of logical signal transfer circuit according to one embodiment of the invention.Logical signal transfer circuit 100 can be applicable in the grid pulse modulator (gate pulse modulator), and comprise a CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) (Complementary Metal OxideSemiconductor, CMOS) inverter 110, a transistor switch M1 and an inverter IV1.CMOS inverter 110 has an input IN, and does anti-phase action in order to the input signal VIN that input IN is transmitted, to export a logical signal VFLK or a VFLKB.CMOS inverter 110 comprises a P transistor npn npn MP4A and a N transistor npn npn MN4, and wherein transistor MN4 string repeatedly is connected in transistor MP4A, and its grid is connected in input IN.Transistor switch M1 has a control end, and it is connected in the grid of input IN and transistor MN4, thereby is controlled by input signal VIN.Inverter IV1 is connected between transistor MP4A and the transistor switch M1, and also has an input and an output, and its output is connected in the grid of transistor MP4A.Transistor switch M1 is connected between the input and an earthed voltage GND of inverter IV1.
In operation, when transistor switch M1 opened, inverter IV1 closed transistor MP4A, and when transistor switch M1 closes, inverter IV1 turn-on transistor MP4A.
Particularly, when input signal VIN is issued to input IN (or grid of transistor MN4) and has high level (as: between 1.5V and 5.0V), transistor switch M1 is opened by input signal VIN, the input of inverter IV1 draws via transistor switch M1 and reduces to earthed voltage GND (low level), and the output of inverter IV1 is pulled up to a supply voltage VDD (high level), to close transistor MP4A.Therefore, transistor MN4 is opened by input signal VIN, draws with the output OUT with CMOS inverter 110 and reduces to earthed voltage GND.
On the other hand, when input signal VIN sends and has low level (as earthed voltage), transistor switch M1 is closed by input signal VIN, the input of inverter IV1 is pulled up to VDD (high level) via for example transistor M5, and the output of inverter IV1 draws and reduces to earthed voltage (low level), with turn-on transistor MP4A, make the output OUT of CMOS inverter 110 be pulled up to VDD (high level) via for example current source 120, wherein current source 120 is connected between voltage VDD and the transistor MP4A, and can realize that transistor MP4 is continued to open by low level voltage VSS control by a transistor MP4.Thus, transistor MN4 just can be closed by input signal VIN.
It should be noted that, when the voltage level of input signal VIN increase and before reaching a maximum (that is, be transferred to by low level and reach before the high level), for example reach the critical voltage (as 0.7V) of transistor switch M1, make that the input of inverter IV1 drew immediately via transistor switch M1 and reduces to earthed voltage GND when transistor switch M1 opened, the output of inverter IV1 is pulled up to voltage VDD immediately, closing transistor MP4A, and transistor MN4 is opened by input signal VIN.Therefore, even the high-voltage level of input signal VIN changes between 1.5V and 5.0V astatically, logical signal transfer circuit 100 still can be converted to input signal VIN required logical signal.
Moreover, because the voltage level of input signal VIN is transferred to high level from low level, need a period of time in fact, cause the transmission delay in the logical signal transfer circuit 100, so can increase by the voltage level of input signal VIN and reach before the high level, under the situation that transistor switch M1 opens, the input of inverter IV1 draws immediately via transistor switch M1 and reduces to earthed voltage GND, then the output of inverter IV1 is pulled up to voltage VDD immediately to close transistor MP4A, makes the time of transmission delay therefore reduce.Thus, the breakdown current (shoot through current) that is produced in the time of just can avoiding CMOS inverter 110 to switch, and the transmission of logical signal can effectively be carried out because of less transmission delay.
In the present embodiment, logical signal transfer circuit 100 also can comprise and opens beginning transistor MENI, and it has a control end, opens beginning signal PGB in order to receive one, and is connected between the grid and earthed voltage GND of transistor MN4.Particularly,, open beginning signal PGB and send and turn-on transistor MENI,, use the initial condition of setting the CMOS inverter 110 and the circuit that continues so that CMOS inverter 110 can't be operated when logical signal transfer circuit 100 as yet not during stable operation.
In the present embodiment, logical signal transfer circuit 100 also can comprise an Electrostatic Discharge transistor ME, wherein transistor ME has a control end, in order to receive by open beginning signal PGB anti-phase and a signal PG, and be connected in the grid of transistor MN4 and in order between the input node that receives external logic signal VFLK_IN.Transistor ME is controlled by signal PG, carrying out the operation of static discharge, and transmits logical signal VFLK_IN as input signal VIN.
Fig. 2 is the schematic diagram that illustrates a kind of logical signal transfer circuit according to another embodiment of the present invention.Compared to Fig. 1, logical signal transfer circuit 200 also comprises transistor switch M2, and it repeatedly is connected with transistor switch M1 string, and transistor switch M2 is connected between the input of transistor switch M1 and inverter IV1.Transistor switch M2 has a control end, and control end is connected in the grid (or input IN) of transistor MN4, makes transistor switch M2 be controlled by input signal VIN.
In operation, comprise the logical signal transfer circuit 200 of transistor switch M1 and M2, be similar to the action of the logical signal transfer circuit 100 that comprises transistor switch M1 among Fig. 1.For example, when input signal VIN is issued to input IN (or grid of transistor MN4) and has high level, transistor switch M1 and M2 open by input signal VIN, the input of inverter IV1 draws via transistor switch M1 and M2 and reduces to earthed voltage GND (low level), and the output of inverter IV1 is pulled up to supply voltage VDD (high level), to close transistor MP4A.
Similarly, when the voltage level of input signal VIN increase and before reaching a maximum (that is, be transferred to by low level and reach before the high level), for example reach the critical voltage of transistor switch M1 and M2, make that the input of inverter IV1 drew immediately via transistor switch M1 and M2 and reduces to earthed voltage GND when transistor switch M1 and M2 opened, and the output of inverter IV1 is pulled up to voltage VDD immediately, closing transistor MP4A, and transistor MN4 is opened by input signal VIN.Therefore, even the high-voltage level of input signal VIN changes between 1.5V and 5.0V astatically, logical signal transfer circuit 200 still can be converted to input signal VIN required logical signal.
Moreover, reach by the voltage level increase of input signal VIN before the high level, under the situation that transistor switch M1 and M2 open, the input of inverter IV1 draws immediately via transistor switch M1 and M2 and reduces to earthed voltage GND, can make the time of transmission delay therefore reduce.Thus, just can avoid producing breakdown current, and therefore the transmission of logical signal can be carried out effectively.
Fig. 3 is the schematic diagram of a kind of logical signal transfer circuit of illustrating according to further embodiment of this invention.Compared to Fig. 2, logical signal transfer circuit 300 also comprises a magnetic hysteresis (hysteresis) transistor M3, and it is in order to giving a hysteresis characteristic to logical signal transfer circuit 300, and is controlled by inverter IV1.Hysteresis transistor M3 repeatedly is connected with transistor switch M2 string, and is connected in parallel with transistor switch M1, and also has a control end, is connected in the output of inverter IV1, to receive the signal HYS that is exported by inverter IV1.
When hysteresis transistor M3 and transistor switch M1 and M2 co-operate, hysteresis transistor M3 can give hysteresis characteristic to logical signal transfer circuit 300.Fig. 4 is the B-H loop schematic diagram of the relative output logic signal VFLK of a kind of input signal VIN that illustrates according to the embodiment of the invention.With reference to Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, when the voltage level of input signal VIN increased to two critical voltages (2VTH) with turn-on transistor switch M1 and M2, the signal HYS that is exported by inverter IV1 can be pulled up to voltage VDD (high level) simultaneously, to open hysteresis transistor M3.At this moment, hysteresis transistor M3 is than transistor switch M1 conducting or unlatching more (for example: the conducting resistance rds of M3, on is littler than M1), so node NX can be considered ideally with earthed voltage GND and is connected.Afterwards, when the voltage level of input signal VIN was reduced to a critical voltage (VTH), transistor switch M2 can close.Thus, when hysteresis transistor M3 and transistor switch M1 and M2 co-operate, logical signal transfer circuit 300 just can be endowed hysteresis characteristic by the operation of hysteresis transistor M3.
Secondly, also can be by changing one of them size of transistor switch M1 and M2, or change the size of transistor switch M1 and M2 simultaneously, adjust the transfer point (being voltage VTH or 2VTH) among Fig. 4.In addition, transistor switch M1 string repeatedly is connected in transistor switch M2, transfer point is increased to above 1.0V.In addition, if omit transistor switch M2, then the transfer point critical voltage that may be positioned at transistor MN4 (is generally 0.7V~0.9V).
By the embodiment of the invention described above as can be known, application of aforementioned logical signal transfer circuit, not only can be under the situation of unstable change in the scope of high-voltage level between 1.5V and 5.0V of external logic signal, with the external logic conversion of signals is required logical signal, also can avoid producing breakdown current (shoot through current), and the transmission of logical signal even can carry out effectively because of less transmission delay (Propagation Delay).
