In a kind of more specific embodiment, circuit structure of the invention is as shown in figure 5, include reference source circuit, control Circuit processed, midway drive electrical level output circuit and driving tube P31, N31, N32.Intermediate level driving circuit includes an electric current Source Ibs1, P-type transistor P32, capacitor C1 and N-type transistor N33, specific effect are as follows:
Reference source circuit exports a reference level VF, reference voltage when as output intermediate level.The level signal It exports to the grid of P-type transistor P32.
Control circuit be output control signal, control transistor N31, N32, P31 working condition, wherein CTL1 and~ CTL1 is inversion signal, and CTL1 is output to the grid of transistor N33, and~CTL1 is output to one end of capacitor C1, and CTL2 is output to The grid of transistor P31, CTL3 are output to the grid of transistor N31;
Efferent duct includes two N-type transistor N31 and N32, a P-type transistor P31;P31 is used to generate the high electricity of output It is flat;N32 is used to generate intermediate output level;N31 is acted on for drop-down, and OUT is made to export low level.
When transistor N33 is connected, signal S1 is low level, closes transistor N32;Bias current Ibs1 is used in N33 The pull-up current to S1 is exported when closing;Transistor P32 clamps signal S1 under the reference voltage effect that grid connects.
The circuit structure working principle is as follows:
1) assume original state, CTL1, CTL2, CTL3 export high level, and~CTL1 is low level, at this moment transistor N31 Conducting, P31, N32 are closed, and the end out exports low level signal.
2) when CTL1, CTL3 become low level, CTL2 maintains high level constant, and at this moment N31, N33 will be closed, because of capacitor The effect of C1, the rising of~CTL1 will drive signal S1 to rise rapidly, thus be transistor N32 grid voltage also rapidly on It rises, because of the Following effect between transistor source and grid, so that drive output OUT voltage rises.
The grid voltage of P32 meets reference voltage VF in Fig. 5, therefore signal S1 voltage rises to when P32 is connected, the electricity of S1 It is flat to will be clamped, in this way but also the voltage at the end out is limited in a stationary value, to export the output level value of setting.Cause To maintain not needing very strong driving, standby current very little during output.
Assuming that the threshold voltage of P32 and N32 is respectively Vthp and Vthn, the intermediate level that OUT terminal needs to export is V1, that The value of the VF of needs can be calculated accordingly, it may be assumed that
VF=V1+Vthn-Vthp.
3) work as next stage, CTL2 becomes low level, and when CTL3 remains unchanged, transistor P31 will be connected, output end level High level VCC will be rapidly risen to again.
4) when needing to close output, CTL1, CTL2, CTL3 become high level, and~CTL becomes low level, simultaneously as The effect of capacitor C1, the decline of~CTL1 level, the also decrease speed of acceleration signals S1, so that N32 is closed rapidly.
In the technical solution of step level output circuit of the invention, wherein included each function device and circuit mould Block can correspond to actual particular hardware circuit structure, therefore these modules and unit can merely with hardware circuit To realize, corresponding function can be realized automatically by not needing auxiliary specifically to control software.
Using the step level output circuit in the invention, output response is fast, is suitable for large range of bandwidth applications, knot Structure is succinct, maintains electric current small, it is only necessary to which three driving tubes save chip area, improve cost performance, have a wide range of applications Range.
