Description

A kind of current-steering digital-to-analog converter and current steer digital-to-analogue method for transformation
Technical field
The present invention relates to integrated circuit technique more particularly to a kind of current-steering digital-to-analog converter and current steer digital-to-analogue conversion sides Method.
Background technique
The development of the communication technology, the speed of logarithm mode converter (DAC, Digital to Analog Converters) with More stringent requirements are proposed for precision, and HD video, high quality call require high-speed DAC.Current steer drives digital analog converter (CS DAC, Current Steering Digital to Analog Converters) has obtained this contradiction effectively Alleviate.Different from the DAC of other structures, CS DAC structure is simple, by binary current source or current source matrix, adds two The current switch of system number control is constituted by the thermometer-code controller that decoder changes into.The electric current of current source can lead to (high-speed applications) are crossed in switching to the resistance being directly grounded, such as Fig. 1, or are connected on the feedback resistance by a buffer (low-speed applications), as shown in Figure 2.In practical applications, output uses differential configuration to reduce common-mode noise to output simulation letter Number interference.In order to improve the matching properties of current source, unit current source array is generallyd use instead of binary current source.
Fig. 2 shows the structure (current cell) of traditionally basic current source cell.Each current source cell Including one by p-type metal-insulator semiconductor (MIS) (PMOS, Positive Channel Metal Oxide Semiconductor) the positive current of MP and MPC composition, and by N-type metal-insulator semiconductor (MIS) (NMOS, Negative Channel Metal Oxide Semiconductor) MN and MNC composition negative current.The input digital data of DAC is in clock Control under pass through a decoder and be transformed into current controling signal DC and DCB, control the on and off of this current source all the way. Resulting differential current signal IopWith IonIt is then added to and (or is directly grounded by the feedback resistance of a buffer Resistance) on the current-to-voltage convertor (I2V) that constitutes, thus the output differential voltage OUTP and OUTN that are converted accordingly.
Fig. 3 shows the related input and output waveform of the current source cell in Fig. 2.Clk is the input clock of DAC, Data is input digital data, and DAC current is corresponding output electric current IopOr Ion
Due to the finite speed of circuit, the output electric current of DAC has limited rise and fall along trWith tf.When input number When according to data being a single logic ' 1 ', exporting electric current in a clock cycle has a rising edge and a failing edge;When defeated When fashionable a string of continuous logic ' 1 ' (such as three in Fig. 3), output electric current also can have one in this continuous ' 1 ' starting A rising edge has a failing edge, as shown in Figure 3 at the end of.
(i.e. Fig. 3 DAC current waveform is lower is wrapped the integral of the energy of DAC final output signal and Current versus time The area contained such as A0... ..., A3Deng) related.Assuming that an ideal current source corresponds to the electric current output face of input data ' 1 ' If product is 1, A0 corresponds to 1- Δ Ar+ Δ Af in Fig. 3, and wherein Δ Ar is the area lost due to limited rising edge, and Δ Af is increased area due to failing edge.Usually, Δ Ar ≠ Δ Af, and due to the change with temperature and technique Change, the two is difficult to accomplish equal.A in Fig. 31=1- Δ Ar, A2=1, A3=1+ Δ Af.So the ratio A between them1:A0, A2:A0, A3:A0, no longer it is just the relationship of 1:1.That is, the energy of output signal can generate and input signal amplitude phase The error of pass, so as to cause the harmonic distortion of output signal.The harmonic distortion of signal caused by such phenomenon is referred to as intersymbol It interferes (ISI).
DAC output signal caused by a kind of above-mentioned limited rise/fall edge due to output electric current of common elimination The method of harmonic distortion is as shown in Figure 4.Electric current shown in current graph 3 will not will opened within the entire clock cycle for another example, Fig. 4 In electric current only need to be open-minded in the part-time of a clock cycle, such as half of clock cycle shown in figure.If still Assuming that it is 1 that the electric current that an ideal current source corresponds to input data ' 1 ', which exports area within a clock cycle, in that Fig. 4 The area A that each output electric current is covered0... ..., A3It is all 1/2- Δ Ar+ΔAf.This is eliminated the need for because of input signal amplitude Correlated error caused by difference, i.e. harmonic distortion.As electric current this in Fig. 4 only need to be in the part-time of a clock cycle The on-off mode opened is referred to as zero formula (RZ).It is on the other side, as the implementation method in Fig. 3 is referred to as non-return-to-zero formula (NRZ)。
Though the RZ on-off mode of Fig. 4 eliminates harmonic distortion caused by ISI above, because it is only in clock cycle Part-time electric current is open-minded, so the efficiency of circuit part can be lost;Secondly, the service time because of electric current shortens, so it is right Current unit circuit, especially after the requirement of speed of buffer of I2V can increase with the shortening of switch time, i.e., it is electric The power consumption on road can rise.

Situation when Fig. 8 is rate half of the control clock CLK frequency for data.It is similar with above-mentioned analysis, in shuffle Under the selection of module, each pair of current-controlled switch is also through every half of clock cycle (i.e. a data period) alternate open and close. As seen from Figure 8, area coverage (A of each current source within a data periodi+A’i, i=0 ... ..., 3) and it is 1- Δ Ar +ΔAf, equally eliminate the harmonic distortion due to caused by ISI.And the method in maximum perturbation caused by circuit and Fig. 2 to passing The method of system is identical, so not increasing the additional demand to power consumption.
