Abstract
The present invention relates to a waveform generator simulating the variation of ladders. The difference values of ladders are directly represented by the sizes of components according to the principle of current mirrors, so the purpose of simulating the variation of the ladders is achieved; therefore, waveforms are generated; because the condition of only one signal in signals for controlling each group of current mirrors is changed, the distortion of the waveforms can reach the minimum.
Description
The invention relates to a kind of analog type step wave generator, comprising a current mirror (current mirror) reference source reference power source and waveform generator as waveform generator, the ladder difference value of its waveform generator, directly represent, change thereby reach analogue step with the ratio of channel width in the element and passage length.
Traditional digital circuit waveform generator, as shown in Figure 1, be to form a serial connection networking by several resistance R serial connections, between each resistance, tap is switched to output point OUT respectively via suitable switch element S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6 in the middle of it, by suitably change each switch controlling signal C1, C2, C3 just can produce different output waveforms.In the traditional resistor partial pressure type waveform generator of Fig. 1, its action is for for example controlling each switch element, and connect in regular turn node A, again connect B, again reconfiguration C ... reconfiguration G again, reconfiguration H returns G again, return F, return C, return B, take back A again, then can form a triangular wave, this moment, the output difference of each state was a unit.If suitably adjust the ratio of resistance R, then sinusoidal wave or various waveforms all may produce.But because resistance originally accounts for area in integrated circuit, therefore a unit resistance can not be done too for a short time, so its accuracy is restricted.And because resistance is subjected to that bias voltage influences in the integrated circuit, precision is also bad.Owing to when control switch moves, having transient process to be easy to generate noise, reach because output impedance is too big, thereby be not to be connected as interface with other circuit easily in addition, so usually need a buffering operational amplifier (OP Buffer) to do impedance matching.
Therefore, its shortcoming of foregoing circuit mainly is the output impedance height, and switch switches moment and be easy to generate noise, because resistance accounts for than large tracts of land in integrated circuit, and operating voltage can have influence on resistance value in addition.Therefore the incompatible practicality of this conventional art needs.Shown in Figure 2 is another kind of traditional digital circuit waveform generator, and it is a kind of traditional R/2R formula waveform generator, and its structure is for forming the mode of connection at resistance networking by a plurality of resistance R, 2R and not gate.Suitable change input signal D3, D2, D1, D0 just can obtain different output waveforms.Its output impedance is better than the situation of Fig. 1, but impedance is still bigger, and its output signal is stepped, wherein each ladder difference is by the decision of input figure place, so distortion and figure place have great relation, and cause so-called transient state saltus step noise when input changes easily, therefore above-mentioned two kinds of traditional schemes all have it to treat improvements.
Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide the low distortion waveform generator that a kind of cost is low, noise is little, the output impedance coupling is appropriate.

OC* (W/L)
n, wherein (W/L)
nRepresent the channel width (W) of n MOS element and the ratio of passage length (L).In the present invention, (L) is identical for the passage length of each MOS element, so the conducting electric current of each MOS element is directly proportional with its channel width, the channel width (W) of control MOS element can obtain the conducting electric current of required size.Each conducting electric current is by switch SW 1, SW2 ...
