It is as shown in Figure 1 a typical double power-supply system power on detection circuit.Assuming that external power source VDD is equal to 3.3V, Internal electric source VINT is equal to 1.8V, is produced by inner linear voltage-stablizer (LDO).LDO is powered by VDD.First to electricity on VDD;VDD VDD_READY signals upset after detection threshold value is reached, LDO is opened, VINT is produced;VINT is then turned on after reaching detection threshold value The logic module that inside is powered by VINT.
Wherein VDD_READY follows VDD, VDD to reach VDD_ after detection threshold value (target) in VDD uphill process READY step-downs;
LDO is opened after VDD_READY step-downs, VINT is produced;Before LDO unlatchings, VINT values are not in relatively low true Definite value, VINT is raised after LDO unlatchings;
Before VINT is raised to detection threshold value, VINT_READY follows VINT to change;
Because VINT_READY is the signal of VINT level ranges, it is necessary to a level translator converts the signal into VDD The signal of voltage range;But before due to the logic level needed for reaching Digital Logical Circuits normal work in VINT level, Level conversion unit cannot the output (VINT_READY_H) of normal work, i.e. level conversion unit be a uncertain value;
POWER_READY is the final output of voltage detecting circuit, and the signal all reaches respective detection in VDD and VINT Before threshold value, POWER_READY need to always remain as low;
But reach detection threshold value in VDD, VINT level also very low (being less than logic working level) when (a stages in Fig. 2), VINT_READY_H does not know;That is VINT_READY_H is possible to as low, and POWER_READY is in this case Height, this will result in logic error, and the module for causing POWER_READY to control is opened in advance, causes VINT to be set up because of power consumption Slowly, vibrate, or even cannot set up.

One nor gate, input is respectively the output of initial value and level translator, is after output signal is inverted VINT_READY_LATCH;
One phase inverter is connected between the input of nor gate and output, and the feedback as the initial state latch is anti-phase Device;
The output signal of nor gate is overturn and does logic with VDD_READY and produces power on detection circuit most by one phase inverter POWER_READY is exported eventually.
The invention has the advantages that:
By increasing initial state latch, be used to set internal power level conversion signal (it is corresponding with internal electric source or Non- gate input signal) initial value, and latched, until internal power source voltage reach setting internal electric source detection threshold value it Just discharged afterwards.Therefore, when latch discharges, the output of level translator has generally had the value of determination (usually high Level), there is metastable state so as to eliminate in upper electro-detection.
