Illustrate that the working principle of the embodiment of the present invention is as follows for when now in a preferred embodiment thereof:
As can be seen above, in better embodiment, the first PMOS tube mp1, the second PMOS tube mp2, institute The breadth length ratio for stating the channel of the 5th PMOS tube mp5 and the 6th PMOS tube mp6 is all identical, there is first bias current in this way I1, the second bias current I2, the size of the first image current I3 and the second image current I4 are all equal, it may be assumed that
I=I3=I4=I1=I2--------------------------------- (3)
In better embodiment, the size of the first capacitor C1 and the second capacitor C2 are also identical, and described first The voltage of the first end of capacitor C1 is Vn1, and the voltage of the first end of the second capacitor C2 is Vn2.
If the electric current of the second NMOS tube mn2 is far longer than third PMOS tube mp3's when Vn1 reaches Vthn from 0 Electric current.In this way when Vn1 reaches Vthn from 0, in1 just rapidly changes to 0 from VDD;Similarly, when vn2 reaches Vthn from 0, In2 just rapidly changes to 0 from VDD.So vn1 and vn2 are converted between 0 and vthn when the RC oscillator operation.
As seen from Figure 1, the first NAND gate 6a connects to form a rest-set flip-flop with the second NAND gate 6b Structure;If in2 is 0, fb_b is also that 0, fb_a is equal to VDD, this meeting is so that I3 gives vn1 charging, the second capacitor C2 It is discharged by the 5th NMOS tube mn5 to vn2.When vn1 reaches Vthn from 0, in1 is equal to 0, in2 and is equal to VDD, at this point, Fb_a is equal to 0, fb_b and is equal to VDD, and then, vn1 starts to discharge, and vn2 is started to charge.When vn2 reaches Vthn, in2 is equal to 0, In1 is equal to VDD, so that fb_a is got higher, fb_b is lower for this meeting, in this way, vn1 is started to charge, and vn2 starts to discharge;So follow Ring, oscillation just produce, and eventually form the oscillator signal Osc_out.
Vn1 and Vn2 constantly changes to VDD from 0, or changes to 0. within the half period of oscillation from VDD:
I*t=Vthn*C--------------------------------- (4)
In conjunction with formula (1)~(4), obtain:
T=(R1+R2) * C
Then, the period of the oscillator signal Osc_out of the RC oscillator are as follows:
T=2t=2 (R1+R2) × C-------------------------------- (5)
Frequency of oscillation:
F=1/2 п × T=1/ [4 п × (R1+R2) × C] --- --- --- --- --- --- --- -- (6)
From formula (6) as can be seen that the frequency and passive device of the oscillator signal Osc_out of the RC oscillator R is related with C.If we will obtain accurate frequency of oscillation, it is only necessary to which the value for adjusting resistance or capacitor can be obtained by.
Equally, the embodiment of the present invention can also obtain the oscillator signal of the RC oscillator in other embodiment The frequency of Osc_out only and the related conclusion of passive device R and C, each electric current I1, I2, I3 and I4 are no longer equal, but at than Example, as long as adding corresponding ratio value in corresponding formula.When the first capacitor C1 and the second capacitor C2 not Whens equal, the C in the t of two half periods of oscillation is replaced respectively with C1 and C2.
Circuit of the embodiment of the present invention uses 2 resistance and 2 capacitors, and other parts are all by NMOS tube or PMOS tube group At, it can be realized using CMOS technology, such as:
Each phase inverter 5 can use CMOS inverter, connected and formed with a NMOS tube by a PMOS tube.
Each NAND gate can connect to be formed with two NMOS tubes using two PMOS tube, and two PMOS tube are using in parallel Connection type, two NMOS tubes use series connection mode, and two PMOS tube are connected in parallel on the cascaded structure of two NMOS tubes Between drain electrode and supply voltage, two NMOS tubes are connected between the drain electrode and ground of the parallel-connection structure of two PMOS tube.
The operational amplifier 3 also can connect to be formed with PMOS tube using multiple NMOS tubes.
From the foregoing, it will be observed that circuit structure of the embodiment of the present invention simply and readily integrates on the same chip, can be good at It is applied in SOC chip.
The channel that the embodiment of the present invention passes through the first NMOS tube mn1 in the second current path to offset generating circuit 1 Breadth length ratio setting, enable to the size of the first bias current I1 and the second bias current I2 of offset generating circuit 1 only It is related with two resistance R1 and R2 of offset generating circuit 1 with the threshold voltage vt hn of the first NMOS tube mn1;The present invention pass through by The threshold voltage and the first NMOS tube mn1 of the NMOS tube mn2 and mn3 of two control signal generating circuits of oscillation generating circuit 2 Threshold voltage be set as identical, enable to the frequency of the oscillator signal Osc_out of entire circuit output only with two resistance R1 is related with R2 and two capacitor C1 and C2, eliminates supply voltage VDD and each NMOS tube or PMOS tube to oscillator signal The influence of the frequency of Osc_out, so the frequency precision with higher of the oscillator signal Osc_out of output, and pass through adjusting Two resistance R1 and R2 and two capacitor C1 and C2 can be achieved with the adjusting of the frequency of oscillator signal, and the frequency of oscillator signal is adjusted It is convenient.
It is able to verify that the embodiment of the present invention can actually obtain the good oscillator signal of frequency performance by emulation experiment Osc_out。
