电压准位转换电路Voltage level conversion circuit

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及一种转换电路,特别是涉及一种电压准位转换电路。The invention relates to a conversion circuit, in particular to a voltage level conversion circuit.

背景技术Background technique

电压准位转换电路为目前电子电路中应用十分广泛的一种转换电路,用于将信号在不同电压准位间转换。A voltage level conversion circuit is a conversion circuit widely used in current electronic circuits, and is used for converting signals between different voltage levels.

参阅图1,现有一种电压准位转换电路(图1使用N-Type的电压准位转换电路作为说明)包含一个第一晶体管M1、一个第二晶体管M2、一个第三晶体管M3,及一个第四晶体管M4。Referring to FIG. 1, an existing voltage level conversion circuit (FIG. 1 uses an N-Type voltage level conversion circuit as an illustration) includes a first transistor M1, a second transistor M2, a third transistor M3, and a first transistor M1. Four transistors M4.

该第一晶体管M1具有一个输出一个反相输出信号OUTB的第一端、一个电连接一个低准位电压VN的第二端,及一个接收一个输入信号IN的控制端。The first transistor M1 has a first terminal outputting an inverted output signal OUTB, a second terminal electrically connected to a low level voltage VN, and a control terminal receiving an input signal IN.

该第二晶体管M2具有一个输出一个输出信号OUT的第一端、一个电连接该低准位电压VN的第二端,及一个接收一个反相输入信号INB的控制端。The second transistor M2 has a first terminal outputting an output signal OUT, a second terminal electrically connected to the low level voltage VN, and a control terminal receiving an inverted input signal INB.

该第三晶体管M3具有一个输出该反相输出信号OUTB的第一端、一个电连接一个高准位电压VP的第二端,及一个电连接该第二晶体管M2的第一端的控制端。The third transistor M3 has a first terminal outputting the inverted output signal OUTB, a second terminal electrically connected to a high level voltage VP, and a control terminal electrically connected to the first terminal of the second transistor M2.

该第四晶体管M4具有一个输出该输出信号OUT的第一端、一个电连接该高准位电压VP的第二端,及一个电连接该第一晶体管M1的第一端的控制端。The fourth transistor M4 has a first terminal outputting the output signal OUT, a second terminal electrically connected to the high level voltage VP, and a control terminal electrically connected to the first terminal of the first transistor M1.

一般使用时,该电压准位转换电路用于将该输入信号IN及该反相输入信号INB转换为该输出信号OUT及该反相输出信号OUTB,其中,该输入信号IN及该反相输入信号INB为差分信号,且其电压位准差低于该输出信号OUT及该反相输出信号OUTB的电压位准差(该高准位电压VP及该低准位电压VN的电压位准差)。In general use, the voltage level conversion circuit is used to convert the input signal IN and the inverted input signal INB into the output signal OUT and the inverted output signal OUTB, wherein the input signal IN and the inverted input signal INB is a differential signal, and its voltage level difference is lower than the voltage level difference between the output signal OUT and the inverted output signal OUTB (the voltage level difference between the high level voltage VP and the low level voltage VN).

第一晶体管M1和第二晶体管M2为输入差分对(differentialinput pair),第三晶体管M3和第四晶体管M4则形成一个正反馈(positive feedback)机制,如同一个闩锁电路(latch circuit),或称为交叉耦合对(cross-coupled pair),在电路运作时,第一晶体管M1和第二晶体管M2必须要能提供足够的动态电流来解开此闩锁电路,才能使该输入信号IN、反相输入信号INB正常转换为该输出信号OUT、反相输出信号OUTB。The first transistor M1 and the second transistor M2 are input differential pairs (differential input pair), and the third transistor M3 and the fourth transistor M4 form a positive feedback (positive feedback) mechanism, like a latch circuit (latch circuit), or As a cross-coupled pair, when the circuit is operating, the first transistor M1 and the second transistor M2 must be able to provide enough dynamic current to unlock the latch circuit, so that the input signal IN, invert The input signal INB is normally converted into the output signal OUT and the inverted output signal OUTB.

然而,当输入信号IN、反相输入信号INB的电压准位接近输入级晶体管(即第一晶体管M1和第二晶体管M2)的临界电压(thresholdvoltage)时,会遭遇转态困难,而容易造成电路在静态时存在一个直流(DC)电流,导致电路漏电(leakage current)。However, when the voltage levels of the input signal IN and the inverted input signal INB are close to the threshold voltage (threshold voltage) of the input-stage transistors (namely, the first transistor M1 and the second transistor M2), they will encounter difficulty in transition, and easily cause circuit damage. There is a direct current (DC) current in static state, which causes leakage current in the circuit.

一般为了克服此问题,会通过增加输入级晶体管宽度(width)以提升输入级晶体管的动态电流,或是增加闩锁电路的晶体管(即第三晶体管M3和第四晶体管M4)通道长度(channel length)来降低闩锁电路的能力,但前者不仅增加功耗且会使布局面积变大而提升电路成本,后者对于输入级晶体管为N型金氧半场效晶体管(N typeMetal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor,缩写为N-MOSFET)而言,会增加输出信号OUT、反相输出信号OUTB的上升时间(risingtime),对于输入级晶体管为P型金氧半场效晶体管(P-MOSFET)而言(如图2所示),会增加输出信号OUT、反相输出信号OUTB的下降时间(falling time),导致转态时间增加。Generally, in order to overcome this problem, the dynamic current of the input stage transistor will be increased by increasing the width of the input stage transistor, or the channel length (channel length) of the transistor of the latch circuit (that is, the third transistor M3 and the fourth transistor M4) will be increased. ) to reduce the ability of the latch circuit, but the former not only increases the power consumption but also increases the layout area and increases the circuit cost. The latter is an N-type Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field transistor for the input stage transistor. -Effect Transistor, abbreviated as N-MOSFET), it will increase the rising time (risingtime) of the output signal OUT and the inverted output signal OUTB, and the input stage transistor is a P-type metal oxide half field effect transistor (P-MOSFET). As shown in FIG. 2 , the falling time (falling time) of the output signal OUT and the inverted output signal OUTB will be increased, resulting in an increase in the transition time.

参阅图3,本发明电压准位转换电路的第一较佳实施例包含一个第一输出端OUT及一个第二输出端OUTB、一个第一晶体管M1、一个第二晶体管M2、一个第三晶体管M3、一个第四晶体管M4、一个第五晶体管M5、一个第六晶体管M6、一个第七晶体管M7、一个第八晶体管M8,及一个偏压输入端Vbias。Referring to FIG. 3, the first preferred embodiment of the voltage level conversion circuit of the present invention includes a first output terminal OUT and a second output terminal OUTB, a first transistor M1, a second transistor M2, and a third transistor M3 , a fourth transistor M4, a fifth transistor M5, a sixth transistor M6, a seventh transistor M7, an eighth transistor M8, and a bias input terminal Vbias.

该第一输出端OUT及该第二输出端OUTB分别用于输出一个第一输出电压及一个与该第一输出电压互补的第二输出电压。The first output terminal OUT and the second output terminal OUTB are respectively used to output a first output voltage and a second output voltage complementary to the first output voltage.

The sixth transistor M6 includes: a second transistor electrically connected to the third transistor M3 The first terminal of the terminal, a second terminal electrically connected to the second level voltage V2, and a control terminal electrically connected to a bias input terminal Vbias are controlled to maintain the operation in the saturation region (Saturation region).

The seventh transistor M7 includes: a second transistor electrically connected to the fourth transistor M4 A first end of the terminals, a second end electrically connected to the second level voltage V2, and a control end electrically connected to the bias input end Vbias are controlled to maintain operation in a saturation region.

该第八晶体管M8包括一个电连接该第四晶体管M4的第二端的第一端、一个电连接该第二准位电压V2的第二端,及一个电连接该第一输出端OUT的控制端。The eighth transistor M8 includes a first terminal electrically connected to the second terminal of the fourth transistor M4, a second terminal electrically connected to the second level voltage V2, and a control terminal electrically connected to the first output terminal OUT. .

在本实施例中,该第一晶体管M1、该第二晶体管M2为N型金氧半场效晶体管(N type Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-EffectTransistor,缩写为N-MOSFET),该第三晶体管M3、该第四晶体管M4、该第五晶体管M5、该第六晶体管M6、该第七晶体管M7、该第八晶体管M8为P型金氧半场效晶体管(P-MOSFET),且该第二准位电压V2高于该第一准位电压V1,但不限于此。In this embodiment, the first transistor M1 and the second transistor M2 are N type Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor (N-type Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor, abbreviated as N-MOSFET), and the third transistor M3 , the fourth transistor M4, the fifth transistor M5, the sixth transistor M6, the seventh transistor M7, and the eighth transistor M8 are P-type metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors (P-MOSFET), and the second quasi The bit voltage V2 is higher than the first bit voltage V1, but not limited thereto.

一般使用时,该第一晶体管M1及该第二晶体管M2的控制端分别接收该第一输入电压VIN及该第二输入电压VINB,再经由该第一输出端OUT及该第二输出端OUTB输出电压位准差较高的该第一输出电压及该第二输出电压,由于电压准位转换电路的电压准位转换运作方式为此业界所熟悉的内容,在此不赘述。In general use, the control terminals of the first transistor M1 and the second transistor M2 respectively receive the first input voltage VIN and the second input voltage VINB, and then output the voltage through the first output terminal OUT and the second output terminal OUTB. The first output voltage and the second output voltage with a higher voltage level difference, since the voltage level conversion operation mode of the voltage level conversion circuit is familiar in the industry, details will not be described here.

其中,该第一晶体管M1及该第二晶体管M2为输入差分对(differential input pair),该第三晶体管M3及该第四晶体管M4则形成一个正反馈(positive feedback)机制,可视为一个闩锁电路(latchcircuit),或称为交叉耦合对(cross-coupled pair)。Wherein, the first transistor M1 and the second transistor M2 are input differential pairs (differential input pair), the third transistor M3 and the fourth transistor M4 form a positive feedback mechanism, which can be regarded as a latch Lock circuit (latchcircuit), or cross-coupled pair (cross-coupled pair).

当电路转态期间(即该第一输入电压VIN、该第二输入电压VINB由相对低准位电压转高准位电压,或由相对高准位电压转低准位电压时),通过该偏压输入端Vbias提供偏压使该第六晶体管M6及该第七晶体管M7操作在饱和区,此时该第六晶体管M6及该第七晶体管M7会分别等效于一个串接于该第二准位电压V2与第三晶体管M3、该第四晶体管M4间的等效高电阻(即小信号等效输出电阻ro),如此可弱化该第三晶体管M3及该第四晶体管M4的闩锁能力,使该第一输出电压及该第二输出电压可以较容易转态。During the transition period of the circuit (that is, when the first input voltage VIN and the second input voltage VINB change from a relatively low level voltage to a high level voltage, or from a relatively high level voltage to a low level voltage), through the bias Voltage input terminal Vbias provides a bias voltage to make the sixth transistor M6 and the seventh transistor M7 operate in the saturation region. At this time, the sixth transistor M6 and the seventh transistor M7 are respectively equivalent to a transistor connected in series with the second quasi-transistor. The equivalent high resistance between the bit voltage V2 and the third transistor M3 and the fourth transistor M4 (that is, the small-signal equivalent output resistance ro), can weaken the latch-up capability of the third transistor M3 and the fourth transistor M4 in this way, The first output voltage and the second output voltage can change state more easily.

当该第六晶体管M6及该第七晶体管M7的等效电阻值愈高时,该第三晶体管M3及该第四晶体管M4的闩锁能力就愈被弱化,因此该第一晶体管M1及该第二晶体管M2不需要提供较大的动态电流,即能使该第一输出电压及该第二输出电压轻易转态。When the equivalent resistance of the sixth transistor M6 and the seventh transistor M7 is higher, the latch-up capability of the third transistor M3 and the fourth transistor M4 is weakened, so the first transistor M1 and the first transistor M1 The second transistor M2 can easily turn the first output voltage and the second output voltage without providing a large dynamic current.

然而该第三晶体管M3及该第四晶体管M4的闩锁能力越弱,就会导致该第一输出电压及该第二输出电压的上升时间(rising time)增加,因此设置该第五晶体管M5及该第八晶体管M8以缩短该第一输出电压及该第二输出电压的上升时间。However, the weaker the latch-up ability of the third transistor M3 and the fourth transistor M4 will cause the rise time (rising time) of the first output voltage and the second output voltage to increase, so the fifth transistor M5 and the fifth transistor M5 are set. The eighth transistor M8 shortens the rising time of the first output voltage and the second output voltage.

在电路转态期间,当第一输入电压VIN是由相对低准位电压转高准位电压(此时该第二输入电压VINB由相对高准位电压转低准位电压),在该第一晶体管M1为导通状态时,通过该第八晶体管M8的路径能加速该第一输出电压的上升时间;当第一输入电压VIN是由相对高准位电压转低准位电压(此时该第二输入电压VINB由相对低准位电压转高准位电压),在该第二晶体管M2为导通状态时,通过该第五晶体管M5的路径则能加速该第二输出电压的上升时间。During the transition period of the circuit, when the first input voltage VIN changes from a relatively low level voltage to a high level voltage (at this time, the second input voltage VINB changes from a relatively high level voltage to a low level voltage), at the first When the transistor M1 is in the conduction state, the path through the eighth transistor M8 can accelerate the rising time of the first output voltage; when the first input voltage VIN changes from a relatively high level voltage to a low level voltage (the first The second input voltage VINB changes from a relatively low level voltage to a high level voltage), when the second transistor M2 is turned on, the path passing through the fifth transistor M5 can accelerate the rising time of the second output voltage.

经由以上的说明,可将本实施例的优点归纳如下:Through the above description, the advantages of this embodiment can be summarized as follows:

通过设置该第六晶体管M6及该第七晶体管M7以作为串接于该第二准位电压V2与第三晶体管M3、该第四晶体管M4间的等效高电阻,能弱化该第三晶体管M3及该第四晶体管M4的闩锁能力,使该第一输出电压及该第二输出电压可以较容易转态,再搭配设置该第五晶体管M5及该第八晶体管M8以提供导通路径,可以缩短该第一输出电压及该第二输出电压的上升时间,所以即使在该第一输入电压VIN及该第二输入电压VINB的电压准位接近该第一晶体管M1及该第二晶体管M2的临界电压(threshold voltage)时,该第一输出电压及该第二输出电压仍然可以顺利转态。By setting the sixth transistor M6 and the seventh transistor M7 as an equivalent high resistance connected in series between the second level voltage V2 and the third transistor M3 and the fourth transistor M4, the third transistor M3 can be weakened and the latch-up capability of the fourth transistor M4, so that the first output voltage and the second output voltage can be easily transitioned, and then the fifth transistor M5 and the eighth transistor M8 are arranged in conjunction to provide a conduction path, which can Shorten the rising time of the first output voltage and the second output voltage, so even if the voltage levels of the first input voltage VIN and the second input voltage VINB are close to the thresholds of the first transistor M1 and the second transistor M2 voltage (threshold voltage), the first output voltage and the second output voltage can still transition smoothly.

当该第一输入电压VIN及该第二输入电压VINB的压差(│VIN-VINB│)处于较低准位时,相较于现有的电压准位转换电路,本实施例在相同的转态时间需求下,可以缩小布局(layout)面积且不需消耗较多的动态电流,因此适于应用在液晶显示器(Liquid CrystalDisplay,缩写为LCD)的驱动电路中,可大幅降低芯片面积、节省成本及功耗。When the voltage difference (│VIN-VINB│) between the first input voltage VIN and the second input voltage VINB is at a lower level, compared with the existing voltage level conversion circuit, this embodiment performs Under the demand of the state time, the layout (layout) area can be reduced without consuming more dynamic current, so it is suitable for application in the driving circuit of the liquid crystal display (Liquid Crystal Display, abbreviated as LCD), which can greatly reduce the chip area and save the cost and power consumption.
