Detailed description of the invention
Fig. 1 is general output driver circuit structure chart.When the output of a circuit to drive a load capacitance the biggest Time, in order to ensure that circuit has certain operating rate, it is necessary to make circuit have certain electric current output to be provided that sufficiently large driving Electric current.Represent with following formula because the delay time of circuit can approximate: td∝CLV1/ID, wherein CLFor load capacitance, V1 For output voltage, IDFor output driving current.In the case of certain load capacitance and logic swing, prolonging of circuit to be reduced Time must increase the driving electric current of metal-oxide-semiconductor late;Large-drive-current to be increased only increases the breadth length ratio of output stage metal-oxide-semiconductor, And so will increase the load capacitance of previous stage, affect the operating rate of previous stage.Therefore when very heavy load electric capacity, such as fan Go out the biggest situation or receive the outfan of off-chip, needing through an i.e. output driver of output buffer circuit.Output Driver is made up of two parts, and one is pre-driver stage, and one is power tube driving stage, and power tube driving stage is driven by preposition Dynamic level drives.Pre-driver stage part independently controls the grid level of power tube driving stage output transistor.In the former, input IN Terminating the pwm signal by higher level's modulation circuit, its output signal U p and Dn drive the upside of power tube driving stage respectively Transistor PMOS and the grid of lower side transistor NMOS, power tube driving stage is the core of whole output driving circuit. Its design determines the performance of whole output stage, thus largely affects the aggregate performance of system.And, power tube In driving stage, the parasitic capacitance of power tube is very big, in order to ensure that circuit has certain operating rate, it is necessary to make the output of circuit Driver can provide sufficiently large driving electric current.
Referring to Fig. 2, along with improving constantly of cmos device operating rate, high speed data transfer passage increasingly enjoys pass Note.Two-forty causes current transformation rate di/dt to be accelerated, and produces the side effect such as ground wire bounce-back.In order to suppress ground wire to rebound, put Rate of change di/dt and the discharge current of electricity electric current all should reduce.In order to reduce the di/dt of out drive stage, it is necessary to assure defeated Go out driving stage and have a linear raising and lowering electric current.It is derived from a constant di/dt, thus subtracts to greatest extent Drive noise less.This can be by using distributed and weighted switch actuation techniques realization, meanwhile, output driver transistor Size should meet the requirement of maximum current drive ability.The present invention have employed the diversified technology of signal path, in order to While big current driving ability is provided, reduces transmission delay, and then reduces T switch time of whole signalswitch。 TswitchIt is defined as: Tswitch=Td+Tr/f, T hereindAnd Tr/fIt is transmission delay and rising, fall time respectively.In Fig. 2, Owing to various sizes of signal buffer is used, signal passes through two differences from input node IN to output node OUT The path transmission of transmission delay.Undersized signal buffer has little transmission delay, but owing to its little electric current drives energy Power causes big rise/fall time.Otherwise, large-sized signal buffer has big transmission delay, but due to its electricity Stream driving force is big, so rise/fall time is little.One small size and large scale signal buffer appropriately combined permissible Transmission delay T is reduced while big current driving ability is provideddWith rise/fall time Tr/f
Fig. 3 is distributed and weighted switch actuation techniques.By VN=L*di/dt understands, and current changing rate di/dt causes VDD The change of voltage, this " pressure drop (V on stray inductance and electric capacity between GNDN) " effect is referred to as ground wire bounce-back (or VDD Saltus step), wherein, L is the equivalent parasitic inductance between VDD to GND, and di/dt is current changing rate, VNFor ground wire The voltage drop that bounce-back causes.In order to suppress ground wire to rebound, the rate of change di/dt of discharge current and discharge current all should reduce. In order to reduce the di/dt of out drive stage, it is necessary to assure out drive stage has a linear raising and lowering electric current.Thus Obtain a constant di/dt, thus decrease driving noise to greatest extent.This can be by using distributed and weighting Switch actuation techniques realizes.So-called distributed and weighting technique basic thought is the crystal of Sequential Activation out drive stage Pipe.Distributed with in weighting technique, the output transistor that driving stage is big is split into several less crystal varied in size Pipe, exports parallel join.The grid of these transistors is connected by well-designed delay line, to reduce output signal from one The di/dt part of electric current is exported when individual logic state transition is another.Thus produce the raising and lowering of a smoothed slope The signal on edge, thus reduce earthy saltus step.Due to time delay module, each PMOS and NMOS in Fig. 3 Grid the most independently controls.These discrete output transistor sizes increase step by step, such as P1 < P2 and N1 < N2.Now open Close electric current and flow through the transistor current path of different " distributed ", therefore " weight " at these transistors.The change of electric current can With by the time that the is switched on and off control of different crystal pipe.In order to realize the smooth transition of output signal, first invention beats Opening undersized transistor, open large-sized transistor through certain time delay, the most all transistors are all beaten Open.The size of output transistor should meet the requirement of maximum current drive ability.
Fig. 4 is the of the present invention output driver circuit schematic diagram corresponding with Fig. 3, is made up of two parts, and one is pre-driver Level, one is power tube driving stage.Wherein pre-driver stage part include two groups of phase inverters (P4, N4 and P9, N11), One two input nor gate (P5, P6, N5, N6), two input nand gate (P10, P11, N12, N13), two groups Large scale buffer (P7, N7, N8, N9 and P12, P13, P14, N14) and two groups of small sizes buffer (P8, N10 And P15, N15);Wherein, two groups of phase inverters (P4, N4 and P9, N11), two input nor gate (P5, P6, N5, N6), two input nand gate (P10, P11, N12, N13) and two groups of large scales buffer (P7, N7, N8, N9 And P12, P13, P14, N14), two groups of small size buffers (P8, N10 and P15, N15) constitute in Fig. 3 anti- Phase device chain.Power tube driving stage includes two groups of PMOS and NMOS tube (P1, N1 and P2, N2);Simultaneously in order to anti- The impact that only chip internal circuits is likely to result in by electrostatic, plus ESD electrostatic discharge protective circuit (P3, N3) in invention.In order to Driving the biggest load capacitance, in the present invention, essence is the use chain of inverters pre-driver stage as output driver, to this end, In nor gate (P5, P6, N5, N6), the input of P6, N6 grid end is always " 0 ", NAND gate (P10, P11, N12, N13) The input of middle P11, N12 grid end is always " 1 ", it is achieved inverter drive function;Meanwhile, two groups of large scale buffers (P7, N7, N8, N9 and P12, P13, P14, N14) and two groups of small size buffers (P8, N10 and P15, N15) are also in fact Existing anti-phase driving function.Pre-driver stage uses the diversified technology of signal path, due to various sizes of signal buffer quilt Using, signal passes through the path transmission of two different transmission delays from input node IN to output node OUT.Wherein, In two groups of large scale buffers (P7, N7, N8, N9 and P12, P13, P14, N14), N7, N8 and P13, P14 divide Yong Yu the control of Dead Time.Power tube driving stage uses distributed and weighted switch actuation techniques, and output transistor is by two Group vary in size transistor (P1, N1 and P2, N2) composition, P1 < P2, N1 < N2, two group transistor outfans connect parallel Connect.In order to realize the smooth transition of output signal, large scale signal buffer and small size signal buffer in pre-driver stage There is certain time delay, therefore, be first turned on the small-geometry transistor (P1, N1) of power tube driving stage, through certain Opening large-size crystals pipe (P2, N2) time delay, the most all transistors are all opened.Use above signal path Variation technology can make output driver reduce transmission delay while meeting maximum current drive Capability Requirement.So based on The speedy carding process driver of distributed and weighting technique, reduce output signal from a logic state transition be another time defeated Go out the di/dt part of electric current, reduce the rate of change di/dt of switching current, greatly reduce the amplitude of ground wire bounce-back, effectively Avoid the system failure.The most in the present invention, in order to prevent upside MOSFET and downside MOSFET from simultaneously turning on, i.e. The generation of breakdown problem, inserts dead band time interval between large-sized gate drive signal.In dead band interim, Upside MOSFET and downside MOSFET simultaneously turns off, and electric current is flowed by the body diode of MOSFET.During dead band Between generation module between upside conducting and downside turn on, provide a blank time, it is to avoid the upper side and lower side MOSFET simultaneously turns on and causes breakdown problem.
The present invention use the diversified technology of signal path in order to reduce transmission while providing big current driving ability Time delay.The diversified technology of signal path, uses various sizes of signal buffer, due to difference between being input to export The signal buffer of size is used, and signal is passed by the path of two different transmission delays from input node to output node Defeated.Undersized signal buffer has little transmission delay, but its current driving ability is little.Otherwise, large-sized signal delays Rush device and have a big transmission delay, but its current driving ability is big, so a small size and large scale signal buffer is suitable Combination reduces transmission delay while can not reducing out drive stage current driving ability.Simultaneously in order to prevent upside MOSFET and downside MOSFET simultaneously turns on, i.e. the generation of breakdown problem, and the grid at large scale signal buffer drives Dead band time interval is inserted between dynamic signal.In dead band interim, upside MOSFET and downside MOSFET is simultaneously Turning off, electric current is flowed by the body diode of MOSFET.Meanwhile, use distributed and weighted switch actuation techniques to protect Card out drive stage has a linear raising and lowering electric current, reduces the rate of change di/dt of switching current, it is thus achieved that a perseverance Fixed di/dt, last out drive stage need to be realized by two groups of various sizes of PMOS and NMOS.Their output is even Receiving together, the gate input of PMOS and NMOS is connected to two signal buffers varied in size simultaneously.Use The advantage of two signal buffers varied in size is PMOS and the nmos switch time can individually control.When in input When end has signal intensity, due to the signal lag between the signal buffer that two above varies in size, PMOS and NMOS Switching sequence be P1/N1, then P2/N2, the most all transistors are all opened, it is achieved do not reducing output drive Transmission delay is reduced while device current driving ability.
The feature of this patent is and content has revealed that as above, but those skilled in the art is potentially based on the explanation of the present invention And do all substitutions and modifications without departing substantially from spirit.Therefore, protection scope of the present invention should comprise all based on using letter The speedy carding process driver electricity that the diversified technology in number path and distributed and weighted switch technology and interlock circuit thereof realize Line structure.
