A kind of fully integrated AC-DC converter of high efficiency
Technical field
The present invention relates to technical field of integrated circuits, the fully integrated AC-DC converter of especially a kind of high efficiency.
Background technology
Increasingly it is widely used in because of battery size, service life and one-tenth based on inductive coupled radio source transmission technology
The factors such as this control and lead to battery using inconvenience or the system of battery cannot be installed in, such as biologic medical implant devices, wireless
RFID tag and close range wireless communication equipment etc..This generally comprise 3 based on the energy autonomous system of inductive
Part:Reader, induction coil and transponder.The carrier signal that reader sends is obtained by transponder by induction coil, and
AC signal is converted to by DC voltage by AC-DC converter.Traditional radio source Transmission system block diagram as shown in figure 1,
Generally AC-DC converter includes rectification and two parts of voltage stabilizing, and each part is required for a larger coupled capacitor.
Commutator is used to AC signal is converted to the device of direct current signal.Most basic commutator is diode rectification
Device, no matter but be the MOSFET with commutation diode or diode-connected(Metal oxide layer-quasiconductor-field-effect transistor)
Will there is larger conduction voltage drop, limit amplitude and the voltage conversion efficiency of input signal, so the diode of routine is whole
Stream device is seldom used in an integrated system.Nearly ten years, main flow is become based on the full wave rectifier of active diode.This all-wave is whole
Stream device adopts four power transistors, by controlling their conducting consistent to realize the flow direction of electric current with cut-off.Therefore, from reason
By above saying, the difference of output-input voltage is only determined by the conducting resistance and load current of transistor, and the threshold with power transistor
Threshold voltage is unrelated, thus significantly reducing the internal power consumption of commutator, substantially increases conversion efficiency.In fact, this structure
One subject matter of lower its efficiency of impact is the stationary problem of transistor:When loading larger, transistor needs to be designed to big chi
Very little to meet the requirement of electric current density and efficiency, but the grid capacitance of large-sized transistor is larger, leads to the discharge and recharge time relatively
Long, such commutator easily forms relatively long reverse-conducting path in high frequency, have impact on the efficiency of commutator.Cause
How this, avoided the difficult point that the reverse-conducting path being formed because transistor simultaneously turns on is rectifier design to be located.
The DC voltage of commutator output is affected by factors such as the relative distance of induction coil and angles and is changed significantly, stricture of vagina
Ripple is larger, so also needing to a manostat after transponder rectification to obtain a galvanic current pressure.For wireless energy
Amount Transmission system circuit, the most basic requirement of manostat is exactly low speed paper tape reader static power disspation.Plus Cost Problems, without inductance and be easy to
Fully integrated linear voltage regulator(LDO)Become for the first-selection of this kind of application.But the quiescent current of LDO is extremely low, mapping
Weaker and power supply noise rejection ability is relatively low.Additionally, in order to improve integrated level, wireless energy transfer system circuit will subtract as far as possible
Bulky capacitor outside few piece.So no the outer output capacitance of piece, transient response be quick, the high and low quiescent dissipation of Power supply rejection ability and
Stable LDO is that the difficult point of regulator design is located.
For needing fully integrated and inexpensive biologic medical implant devices, improve the performance of AC-DC converter with
Saving area is two key issues needing to consider.Weighing the good and bad index of AC-DC converter performance is to convert AC signal
Ability for DC signal and the ability providing voltage and current, specifically it is simply that power conversion efficiency(PCE)Turn with voltage
Change the ripple of efficiency and output.Current commutator typically can only achieve 82% power below conversion efficiency, the power of LDO
Conversion efficiency can reach 95% about, so the PCE of whole AC-DC converter is.
Voltage conversion efficiency(VCR)Relevant with the size of output impedance and the pressure drop of each element of signal transmission loop, whole AC-DC turns
The pressure drop of parallel operation includes rectification pressure drop and this two parts of voltage stabilizing pressure drop.And output ripple is then relevant with output capacitance, commutator one
As have a big storage capacitance, manostat is also required to a big electric capacity of voltage regulation, and this two output capacitances are typically in μ
F magnitude, takies too big chip area, is unfavorable for integrated.If reduction output capacitance, again need consider stability problem and
The method of Ripple Suppression.
For output capacitance this problem big, T.J Sun proposes a kind of new circuit structure rectifying pressurizer
(rectigulator), commutator and manostat are combined, directly AC signal are converted into stable direct current signal defeated
Go out, thus saving commutator bulky capacitor below, but it remains a need for the electric capacity of a μ F level, as shown in Figure 2.Fig. 3 gives T.J
The physical circuit schematic diagram of the rectigulator that Sun is proposed.This circuit is made up of following four parts:Four transistors, two
Individual operational amplifier, two alternative MUX and a DC voltage bleeder circuit.Wherein, four transistors(M1、
M2, M3 and M4)It is the main path of AC-DC converter, the grid of transistor M1 and M2 is driven by operational amplifier, alternate conduction,
By the signal from ac input end to DC output end;Transistor M3 and M4 is that grid intersects(cross-gate)Structure, hands over
For conducting, by the direct current signal by ground to ac input end.This structure can be regarded as being driven by general operational amplifier
Active diode commutator and LDO have shared a pair of transistor, carry out voltage stabilizing while rectification.And, this structure defeated
Go out end and only need to an electric capacity, the electric capacity of voltage regulation of the storage capacitance simultaneously as commutator for this electric capacity and manostat.But, at this
In individual structure, the input end signal of operational amplifier is the pulse wave signal being produced by MUX, and this signal is analogous to
The drive signal of dc-dc switching tube, therefore output have larger noise.Secondly, on this structural nature, still computing is put
The active diode that big device drives, when the higher luck of frequency is left with offset(Skew), lead to the formation of leakage current, further
Reduce conversion efficiency.

Embodiment one
With reference to Fig. 4, the first embodiment of the present invention:
The AC-DC converter of the present invention is a simple two-port network, and wherein, AC1 and AC2 is input port, DC
Output and GND ground connection output port is output port.Whole AC-DC converter includes two major parts:By three grids
The linear voltage regulator from control commutator and high power supply voltage rejection ratio of chi structure composition.This two parts shares an output
Electric capacity, size only needs to 4nF it is easy to integrated on piece.
Wherein, the core of commutator is three grid chi structures.Transistor M3 and M5 be AC signal from input to
The primary path of outfan, and the direct current signal primary path on transistor M1 and M2 to be input arrive ground.Transistor M4 and M6 be for
Realize from control switch, with avoid as rectigulator structure with MUX generation external pulse signal Lai
Control the operating path of commutator.
The work process of the whole circuit of the present invention is as follows:
Within a half period, when the output voltage that the voltage of input AC1 is higher than direct current output port, M3 opens,
Electric current reaches DC output end from M3 through LLDO, and M2 also opens the electric current by ground to AC1 simultaneously, and M5 then turns off to avoid
DC output end is to the reverse leakage current on ground.Now, M4 turns off, and M1 is also switched off, the dotted line in its signal primary path such as Fig. 4 and arrow
Head shown in, transducer mainly using LLDO come voltage stabilizing.This state down-converter output DC voltage be,
Wherein, voltage on the basis of Vref, R1 and R2 is the divider resistance of transducer.And when AC1 is less than the signal of outfan, M3 closes
Disconnected, main signal path turns off, and now, LLDO does not work, and M2 is also switched off.Due to LLDO transient response quickly, so its shutoff
Time is very short to pass through it is possible to be effectively prevented from reverse leakage current.Now, M4 opens, and voltage stabilizing is stored by DC output end
The discharge and recharge of electric capacity is realizing;M1 also opens, thus realizing the circuit alternation of the right and left.And the work of input AC2
Process is similar with input AC1 work process.

The amplitude of oscillation of high output voltage.Present invention feedforward diode and high pass filter form feedforward path, altogether before power supply ripple
It is fed to the grid of transistor M7.The PMOSFET that diode connects is mainly used in the low-frequency ripple that feedovers, and high pass filter is mainly used in
Feedforward medium-high frequency ripple, this two signals are superimposed at the grid of transistor M7.This feedforward path, improves the power supply of Mid Frequency
Noise inhibiting ability, reduces output ripple.Additionally, the present invention additionally uses the miller compensation electric capacity Cm of a 1pF to ensure
The stability of whole loop.

Commutator and manostat are combined, to save the bulky capacitor after commutator.But it is different from rectigulator structure
It is to present invention employs three grids and intersect(cross-gate)The mode of Structural Self-Control avoids using MUX, solution
The reverse leakage flow problem of active diode structure of having determined, is worked in coordination with by the metal-oxide-semiconductor that high pass filter is connected with diode simultaneously
