Abstract

The invention discloses a voltage detection circuit which can be used for detecting a lower first voltage power source and a higher second voltage power source. The same resistance detection circuit is used by both the higher voltage power source and the lower voltage power source, and a first voltage detection end which is separated from the resistance detection circuit is connected with a voltage protection circuit and then connected to a follow-up first comparator. The voltage protection circuit comprises a first N-channel metal oxide semiconductor (NMOS) tube with a high voltage and a transistor tandem cascading structure which is formed by connecting a plurality of diode-connected metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) tubes in series. When a high-pressure alarm is carried out, the voltage protection circuit enables the high voltage of the first voltage detection end to be released, the voltage which is input to the first comparator is enabled to be clamped in a low voltage and the first comparator is enabled to be produced by low-pressure devices, thus the speed of a low-pressure alarm is improved and the area of circuits is reduced. The voltage detection circuit is capable of greatly reducing the area of the circuits further by sharing the resistance detection circuit.

Description

Voltage detecting circuit
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of SIC (semiconductor integrated circuit), particularly relate to a kind of voltage detecting circuit (VD).
Background technology
In voltage detecting circuit, be save area, low-voltage alarm circuit and alarm for high voltage circuit often share a resistance string, as shown in Figure 1, are the structural representation of the resistance detecting circuit in existing voltage detecting circuit and resistance string.Resistance detecting circuit in Fig. 1 is serially connected with by resistance R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 and R6 and detects between voltage source V0 and ground.Resistance R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 and R6 carry out dividing potential drop to described detection voltage source V0, the dividing potential drop of each resistance joint can be taken out respectively, as dividing potential drop V1 and dividing potential drop V2 can be taken out in Fig. 1, dividing potential drop V1 and dividing potential drop V2 is linked into respectively follow-up comparator circuit and just can realizes the detection to described detection voltage source V0.
In available circuit, the device of two kinds of operating voltage can be included in same circuit simultaneously, be respectively high tension apparatus and low-voltage device.With card class applicating example, usually use low pressure 1.8V device, the technique of high pressure 5V device.Need to detect high pressure 6V voltage, low pressure 1.5V voltage in voltage detecting, during detection, voltage detecting circuit all reporting to the police higher than during 6V and lower than during 1.5V, and can not be reported to the police between 6V and 1.5V.Whether as shown in Figure 1, suppose that described resistance R1 to R6 is identical, then when described detection voltage source V0 is 6V, described dividing potential drop V2 is 1V, now described dividing potential drop V2 can be linked in follow-up comparer to detect high pressure and go beyond the scope; Whether, when described detection voltage source V0 is 1.5V, described dividing potential drop V1 is 1V, now described dividing potential drop V1 can be linked in follow-up comparer to detect low pressure and go beyond the scope.If at same voltage detecting circuit, respectively a resistance detecting circuit is all adopted to high pressure and low pressure, then can not interact between high pressure and low pressure detection, but greatly can increase the area that circuit takies on chip like this, thus cost can be made to improve.
In order to reduce the area of circuit, a kind of existing method shares a resistance detecting circuit by the detection of high pressure and low pressure, but this shared method has a shortcoming to be: as shown in Figure 1, in order to realize the detection to low pressure, dividing potential drop V1 must be connected in the follow-up comparer for detecting low pressure; In order to realize the detection to high pressure, the dividing potential drop V2 of same resistance string must be connected in the follow-up comparer for detecting high pressure simultaneously.When described detection voltage source V0 be low pressure as 1.5V time, dividing potential drop V1 is 1V, dividing potential drop V2 is 0.25V, and these two magnitudes of voltage normally work without any impact on follow-up comparer.When described detection voltage source V0 be high pressure as 6V time, dividing potential drop V1 is 4V, dividing potential drop V2 is 1V, although the follow-up comparer for detecting high pressure can normally work, but because dividing potential drop V1 is 4V, the operating voltage of the follow-up comparer for detecting low pressure could normally work when must be greater than 4V, namely the comparer for detecting low pressure must select high pressure as 5V element manufacturing, and 5V device directly causes comparer speed slow, and area is large.The occasion of reporting to the police needing quick low voltage can only use two to go here and there independently resistance string, but has rolled up again area like this.
