Signal pin drive circuit on piece upper switch gradual control circuit and method, piece
Technical field
The present invention relates to VLSI Design technical field, more particularly to a kind of piece upper switch gradual control electricity
Signal pin drive circuit on road and method, piece.
Background technology
With the raising of modern chips integrated level, there is increasing signal pin to need to drive on same chip.This
A little signal pin loads to be driven are possibly different from, such as it is electric capacity that common cmos digital signal pipe is foot-powered, is opened
It is inductance that powered-down source signal pipe is foot-powered, and it is the transmission line of resistive load that high-speed interface DDR signal pipe is foot-powered.But nothing
By be which kind of load, its function to be completed in itself of output stage switch control circuit be all allow electric current signal pin with
It is switched fast between power line or ground wire.And all these current switches can all face one it is common the problem of, be exactly to chip
The disturbance of interior power line (or ground wire).
As shown in figure 1, the pin of chip physically generally by pressure welding line and package tube payment to a porter with outside chip
Wire is connected, and power line (or ground wire) is also such.Pressure welding line and package tube payment to a porter can in chip VDD (or GND) and chip
The self-induction LVDD (or LGND) of parasitism is introduced between outer power line (or ground wire), should be from inductance value size and packing forms, pressure welding
Line is related to the physical size of pin, common in 1~10nH or so.When the electric current acute variation passed through in the self-induction, i.e.,
Chip exterior is set to be preferably stable power line (or ground wire), VDD (or GND) current potential also can be in self induction electromotive force in chip
Lower produce of effect significantly disturbs.This disturbance would generally produce larger interference to other sensitive circuits on chip, can when serious
Unexpected capability error can be caused, so as to reduce the overall performance of chip.
We can simply estimate the amplitude of transient-upset voltage according to self induction electromotive force, using below equation (1):
Assuming that parasitic self-induction L=10nH, its electric current passed through increases to 100mA, i.e. current changing rate within the 1ns timesThen moment is superimposed upon the self induction electromotive force on VDD in chip (or GND)
If output current is very big or has multiple pins while is exporting, the amplitude of this disturbance will also be more serious.From formula
(1) we are it is also seen that there is the interference that two approach can reduce self induction electromotive force:First, reduce parasitic self-induction, second, reducing
Current changing rate.The former needs to select smaller encapsulation, distributes more pins to power and ground, but for system core
This means higher packaging cost for piece;And the latter is only the core objective of actual circuit solution.
Existing technology is typically all to reduce current changing rate by delaying the slope of switch controlled end signal.Such as figure
It is a method using RC delays shown in 2 to delay to control terminal voltage VG piece upper switch control circuit.Fig. 3 is switching tube M
During turn-on and turn-off everywhere voltage x current over time t change schematic diagram.When control logic input signal IN is from " 0 "
When jumping to " 1 ", expression will allow switching tube M to become to turn on from shut-off;Logical signal " 1 " is converted into switch by drive module DRV
Supply voltage VDD needed for pipe M, terminal voltage VG is then controlled gradually to rise to VDD from 0V in the presence of RC delays;Due to RC
The speed that the waveform of delay rises voltage is slower and slower, so (control terminal voltage VG surpasses switching tube M electric current ID after switch
Cross cut-in voltage VON) and rise slower and slower;Deng control terminal voltage VG through longer delay reach supply voltage VDD with
Afterwards, electric current ID just reaches fully on electric current ION.When control logic input signal IN jumps to " 0 " from " 1 ", expression will allow
Switching tube M becomes to turn off from conducting;Logical signal " 0 " is converted into the voltage 0V needed for switching tube M by drive module DRV, then
Control terminal voltage VG gradually drops to 0V in the presence of RC delays from supply voltage VDD;Because the waveform of RC delays makes voltage
The speed of decline is slower and slower, and switching tube M electric current ID is also that the speed declined is slower and slower;When the low mistakes of control terminal voltage VG
During VON, electric current ID is 0, but controls terminal voltage VG to still need by dropping to 0V from VON compared with long delay, and arrival complete switches off state.
Since the analysis of above turn-on and turn-off process as can be seen that the peak value of current changing rate is led always occurring from just
It is logical and at the time of begin to turn off, in order to reduce current changing rate must just reduce control terminal voltage VG begin to ramp up or declines at the beginning of
Beginning speed.But because the effect of RC delays is to control terminal voltage VG speed slower and slower, so control terminal voltage VG is upper
The delay that liter or the latter stage declined need to grow gets to supply voltage VDD or 0V very much.Come from the effect for reducing current changing rate
Weigh, at the time of this section of delay does not act on peak value, simply add the time of on or off process in vain, reduce
Switching speed.This is exactly the disadvantage of prior art.
Therefore, a kind of switch control that can be effectively reduced current changing rate and can and keep very fast switching speed is needed badly now
Method, to reduce the interference of self induction electromotive force, improve the overall performance of chip.
