Detailed Description
The technical solutions of the present invention are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the scope of the present invention is not limited to the following.
A clock signal level shift circuit comprises an MOS switch circuit and a working circuit, wherein the working circuit comprises one or more load driving circuits for realizing level shift, and the MOS switch circuit is respectively connected with each load driving circuit;
the MOS switching circuit comprises a first MOS tube M1, a second MOS tube M2, a first capacitor C1, a second capacitor C2 and an inverter F; the source electrodes of the first MOS transistor M1 and the second MOS transistor M2 are connected with a first level end V1; the grid electrode of the first MOS tube M1 is connected with the drain electrode of the second MOS tube M2, and the drain electrode of the first MOS tube M1 is connected with the grid electrode of the second MOS tube M2; the drain electrode of the first MOS tube M1 is also connected with a clock signal end CLK through a first capacitor C1; the input end of the phase inverter F is connected with a clock signal end CLK, and the output end of the phase inverter F is connected with the drain electrode of a second MOS tube M2 through a second capacitor C2;
the load driving circuit comprises a third MOS transistor M3 and a third capacitor C3; the source electrode of the third MOS tube M3 is connected with the drive level end, the grid electrode of the third MOS tube M3 is connected with the drain electrode of the first MOS tube M1, and the drain electrode of the third MOS tube M3 is connected with the output end of the phase inverter F through a third capacitor C3.
In the load driving circuit, the level after displacement is output by the drain electrode of the third MOS transistor M3 and the common end of the third capacitor C3 for the load to work, the drain electrode of the third MOS transistor M3 and the common end of the third capacitor C3 are connected with the first end of the load, and the second end of the load is grounded.
As shown in fig. 2, in the first embodiment of the present invention, when the operating circuit includes one load driving circuit, a single level shift circuit is formed.
As shown in fig. 3, in the first embodiment of the present application, the clock signal level of the clock signal terminal CLK is 0 to vdd1, the power supply of the inverter is VDD1, and the output level of the inverter is 0 to vdd1
The clock signal is shifted to the voltage positions of V1-VDD 1+ V1, the obtained signals are S1 and S2, the S1 voltage signal is used for driving the M3 switching tube, the displacement of the output signal S3 of the load driving circuit is realized, and the S3 signal is shifted to the voltage positions of V2-VDD 1+ V2.
In the first embodiment, the first capacitor C1 requires the size of the driven M2/M3 to be very small, so the value of C1 is also small, and the specific value design satisfies the condition C1> (VT × (CS 1))/(VDD 1-VT); here, VT is a threshold voltage of the MOS device, CS1 is a Cds (source-drain capacitance) capacitance including M1, a gate capacitance including M2/M3, a parasitic capacitance after layout, and a value of C1 needs to be set larger;
the second capacitor C2 is required to drive M1, so C2 needs to satisfy the condition C2> (VT (CS 2))/(VDD 1-VT), where VT is the threshold voltage of M1, CS1 is the gate capacitor including M1, the Cds capacitor of M2, the parasitic capacitor after layout, and the value of C2 needs to be set larger.
As shown in FIG. 3, theoretically, the S3 signal is shifted to V2 to VDD1+ V2 voltage positions where it is reasonable.
In practice, the capacitor C3 is required to drive Cload (here, cload is the equivalent capacitance of the load circuit), and here, the output signal amplitude VX = (C3 × VDD 1)/(C3 + CS3+ Cload); the setting of C3 needs to meet the requirement of the amplitude of the load clock signal, if the requirement of the amplitude of the signal required to be output is VX, C3> (VX (CS 3+ Cload))/(VDD 1-VX) is required; the requirement of different output amplitudes can also be realized by adjusting the setting of C3 to limit the highest level of the S3 limit.
Because the MOS switch M1/M2/M3 is required to meet the compensation requirement of charge leakage, the charge leakage is very small, and the size of the M1/M2/M3 can be made very small.
As shown in fig. 4, in the second embodiment of the present application, when the operating circuit includes a plurality of load driving circuits, a multilevel shift circuit is formed; each load driving circuit is identical, and at the same time, each load driving circuit is connected to a driving level terminal of a different level.
Different load driving circuits are controlled by the driving level end to obtain different level displacement results so as to supply corresponding loads to work, and the level displacement results are shown in fig. 5, so that when one load driving circuit is connected with the driving level end with the level of V2, the level is displaced to V2-VDD 1+ V2, and a signal s3 is obtained to drive the corresponding loads to work; when the other load driving circuit is connected with a driving level end and is Vn, the level is shifted to Vn-VDD 1+ Vn, a signal sn is obtained, and the corresponding load is driven to work.
