Description

A kind of clock duty cycle calibration circuit
Technical field
The present invention relates to IC design field, particularly to a kind of clock duty cycle calibration circuit.
Background technology
Along with the development of electronic technology, and electron controls technology is constantly employed and controls various The Circuits System of various kinds.The simple circuit that controls can only realize connecting operation element circuit or cutting off work unit Two kinds of situations of part circuit, namely open or close.But this simple on-off control action can not be expired The requirement of foot many accuracy-control systems work.And, for the requirement of system control accuracy be subject to The many factors such as power consumption limit, the line style that most element can realize from gradually reaching gradually close regulates and controls. This linear regulation gradually reaching gradually close, it is necessary to be applied to Duty ratio control.
High-speed serial data is received and dispatched when, typically reduce power consumption with reduction working clock frequency and make an uproar Sound, so being used for sending data at the rising edge of transmitter clock and trailing edge, upper at receptor equally Rising edge and trailing edge is used for sampling data, this just requires that the dutycycle of clock must assure that is 50%. The clock of 50% dutycycle is widely used in the static RAM of double data rate (DDR) (DDR) SRAM, delay phase-locked loop (DDL) circuit, the D/A converting circuit of bilateral sampling so that it is upper Rise edge and trailing edge can work simultaneously, improve the transfer rate of signal.Nowadays at a lot of phaselocked loops (PLL) In the overtones band circuit of reference clock, before frequency multiplication, the reference clock of input must be carried out 50% dutycycle Calibration, so that the later clock signal of frequency multiplication can be as the ginseng of two frequencys multiplication of phaselocked loop (PLL) Examine clock, the overall performance improving phaselocked loop (PLL) frequency synthesizer.In realizing process of the present invention, Inventor finds clock duty cycle calibration circuit system design complexity in prior art, and chip occupying area is relatively Greatly, the precision of this type of calibration circuit is easily affected by technique, temperature, voltage etc., and can only adjust relatively The dutyfactor value of little scope is calibrated, it is not possible to carries out any clock duty cycle calibration, greatly limit The practicality of calibration circuit.
It addition, there is a kind of pulse-width controlled under high-speed cmos clock buffer circulation electricity in prior art Road, the most as shown in Figure 1:
The program is by CK to be adjustedin, by clock signal CK after being adjusted by pulse width regulating circuitoutSend Detect to electric charge pump 1 (CP1) and electric capacity C1, then compared with reference voltage by comparator, If CKoutPulse less than 50%, then the charging interval extending C1 makes the voltage V on electric capacity C1c Increase, until VcValue more than reference voltage Vref, so that voltage raises on C3, thus regulate arteries and veins Wide modulation circuit, makes dutycycle reduce, carrying out detection feedback the most repeatedly so that whole system reaches One balance, CKoutOutput duty cycle be 50%, whole duty-ratio calibrating circuit have employed closed loop. But there is following a few point defect in this scheme:
1) this scheme is passed through ring oscillator and the electric charge pump CP2 of three grades of phase inverters composition and fills Electricity electric capacity C2 produces the reference voltage representing 50% dutycycle, reference voltage one side that this method produces Face circuit is complicated, and ring oscillator must be by careful design its upper and lower PMOS, NMOS Reasonable size, it is ensured that obtaining a dutycycle is the clock of 50%, and this is by technique, temperature etc. Impact can be relatively big, directly affects dutycycle Adjustment precision.
2) this ring oscillator will consume the biggest power consumption under high frequency condition.
3) in the locked state, VrefJointly determined by the charge and discharge stream of CP2 and the output impedance of current source Fixed, when there is mismatch in electric charge pump CP2, VrefMay be by by reed position to power supply or ground, then loop will not Can normally work;Additionally this structure can only carry out the adjustment of 50% dutycycle.
4) overal system design is complicated, has two electric charge pumps (CP1/CP2), and comparator has three Integrating capacitor, will take bigger chip area.
Prior art additionally provides the duty-ratio calibrating circuit that a kind of totally digital circuit realizes, concrete such as Fig. 2 Shown in:

This class formation itself have employed open loop form, and it sets up speed quickly, but in this class technology Have the disadvantage that
1) insert the relative size that phase position depends on phase inverter A, B, easily affected by process deviation;
2) affected by technique, temperature, voltage etc. between each delay unit and be there are differences, it is difficult to ensure that The concordance of delay time, thus greatly have impact on dutycycle calibration accuracy.
3) insert phase process only to carry out in clock limited rise or fall time, thus greatly limit Its adjustable frequency and dutycycle, adjustable duty cycle scope is only ± 10%, greatly limit practicality.

It should be noted that, pulse width modulator is the instrument of a kind of controlling party pulse width, can be effectively The width of regulation square-wave signal, and then control the size of the dutyfactor value of square wave.Pulse width modulator is with arteries and veins Rush the dutycycle of the generator output end clock output signal CLK_2 less than 50% as an input, Input using a feedback signal as another, owing to the value of feedback signal is constantly updated, inputs extremely This pulse width modulator, therefore, the pulsewidth of two input signals of input is constantly compared, is adjusted Joint.
Pulse width modulator in present embodiment is pseudo-phase inverter, including: the first P-channel metal-oxide Semiconductor field effect transistor PMOS 4 and the first N-channel metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor Pipe NMOS tube 5;The drain electrode of the first PMOS 4 connects high level, and grid connects the outfan of comparator, Source electrode connects the drain electrode of the first NMOS tube 5;The source ground of the first NMOS tube 5, grid connects pulse The outfan of generator.
Specifically, two inputs of this puppet phase inverter pulse width modulator connect pulse generator respectively Outfan and the outfan of comparator, i.e. feedback signal, owing to the signal value of feedback is continually changing, therefore This puppet phase inverter pulse width modulator can constantly carry out the modulation of pulsewidth to the two of input signal, until Till reaching dynamic poised state, the pwm value of two input signals now has also reached to approach the most State, calibration circuit obtained a higher output signal of precision.
Owing to, in actual digital display circuit, comprising substantial amounts of memory element, be triggered when control signal or The signal of person's input reaches the condition of certain threshold value, and circuit changes corresponding output signal according to input signal State, this needs trigger storage element be just called trigger.Trigger in present embodiment Input signal is the output signal of pulse width modulator, itself and pulse width modulator " end to end ".According to this Structure within trigger or control condition and input signal, produce and export clock signal accordingly, Specifically, output clock signal calibrates signal exactly.
It is noted that the trigger in present embodiment is Schmidt trigger 6, as it is shown in fig. 7, Including: three PMOS and three NMOS tube, be the second PMOS the 10, the 3rd PMOS respectively Pipe the 11, the 4th PMOS the 15, second NMOS tube the 12, the 3rd NMOS tube 13 and the 4th NMOS Pipe 14;Second PMOS the 10, the 3rd PMOS the 11, second NMOS tube 12 and the 3rd NMOS The grid of pipe 13 connects jointly, as the input of Schmidt trigger;The leakage of the second PMOS 10 The source electrode of pole and the 3rd PMOS 11 is commonly connected to the drain electrode of the 4th NMOS tube 14;2nd NMOS The drain electrode of pipe 12 and the source electrode of the 3rd NMOS tube 13 are commonly connected to the drain electrode of the 4th PMOS 15; The source ground of the 4th NMOS tube 14, the drain electrode of the 4th PMOS 15 connects high level;3rd PMOS The source electrode of pipe 11 and the drain electrode of the second NMOS tube 12, the grid and the 4th of the 4th PMOS 15 The grid of NMOS tube 14 connects jointly, as the outfan of Schmidt trigger 6.
Gate circuit has a threshold voltage, when input voltage rises to threshold voltage or from high electricity from low level Equal the state of circuit when dropping to threshold voltage will change.Schmidt trigger is a kind of special door Circuit, different from common gate circuit, Schmidt trigger has two threshold voltages, is called forward Threshold voltage (V+) and negative sense threshold voltage (V-).High level is risen to from low level in input signal And when arriving V+, output voltage state is undergone mutation;Input signal drops to low level also from high level And when being reduced to V-, output voltage state is undergone mutation.
Schmidt trigger be designed to stop input voltage that minor variations (less than a certain threshold value) occurs and The change of the output voltage caused, improves the anti-noise ability of Schmidt trigger output signal, and utilizes Positive feedback effect in Schmidt trigger state conversion process, can edge change slowly periodically Signal is transformed to the rectangular pulse signal that edge is the steepest.Output signal through pulse width modulator may be sent out Raw signal waveform distortion, the rising edge of waveform substantially slows down, or when other pulse signals are by the square that is added to During shaped pulse signal, signal will appear from the noise added, no matter occur above-mentioned in which kind of situation, all Can be by obtaining more satisfactory rectangular pulse waveform with Schmidt's inverter trigger shaping.
Low pass filter is a kind of instrument playing trap signal effect, it is allowed to less than a certain specific cutoff frequency The signal of rate passes through, but then can not pass through higher than the signal of this particular cut-off frequency.Due to low pass filter High-frequency signal there is inhibitory action, so being frequently utilized for filtering the interference signal of high frequency.In present embodiment Low pass filter connect trigger, with the output signal of trigger, namely calibrate signal, as from The input signal of body, in trigger output signal in high-frequency interferencing signal, filter, The anti-high-frequency signal interference performance of this calibration circuit can be improved.
It is noted that the low pass filter in present embodiment is resistance capacitance RC wave filter.By It is the more commonly used low pass filter in RC wave filter, and the structure of RC wave filter is very simple, Have only to use a resistance R7, a capacity cell C8, thus reduce whole calibration circuit structure Complexity, and reduce the area occupied of circuit chip.Further, RC wave filter can reduce The sawtooth waveforms of input, reduces the amplitude of input sawtooth waveforms.In actual applications, low pass filter is all right It is Butterworth filter or Chebyshev filter etc..
Two or more data can be compared by comparator, the most equal to determine their size, Or determine the magnitude relationship between them.Comparator 9 in present embodiment has two inputs, One input connects the outfan of low pass filter, believes using the output signal of low pass filter as input Number, another input one reference voltage vref of input, this reference voltage vref can be by technical staff Empirically arrange.The result of this comparator 9, as a feedback signal, inputs pulse width modulator, One of them input signal as pulse width modulator.
