The output driving module includes the 8th to the 11st transistor M8~M11, the 8th transistor M8 and with the Ten transistor M8 are connected in series between operating voltage VDD and ground voltage VSS, and the 8th transistor M8 and the described 4th For transistor M4 for forming current mirror, the 9th transistor M9 and the 11st transistor M11 is connected in series in operating voltage VDD Between ground voltage VSS, and the 9th transistor M 9 and the 5th transistor M 5 be for forming current mirror, and described the 11 transistor M 11 and the tenth transistor M 10 form current mirror, the leakage of the 9th M 9 and the 11st transistor M11 Pole is used as the output end vo ut of the hysteresis comparator.
Illustratively, in the present embodiment, described first, second, third, the ten, the 11st transistors are NMOS crystal Pipe, the 4th to the 9th transistor are PMOS transistor.
The realization principle of the hysteresis comparator of the present embodiment is as follows:When the input VP of M1 is very high, when the input VN of M2 is very low, When i.e. input difference voltage VP-VN is prodigious, M1 is opened at this time, and M2 is closed, and the tail current i3 that M3 is provided all is flowed through from M1, Certainly the electric current i4 of M4 is same at this time, i.e. i4=i1=i3, and the electric current i6 of M6, M2, M5 and M7, i2, i5, i7 are 0.So Afterwards as differential input voltage is gradually lifted, i.e., VP is gradually got higher, and when VN is gradually lower, the electric current of i6 slowly becomes since 0, this I6 is equal to always i2 in the process, is all slowly becoming larger, and i5 and i7 are 0 always.When input difference voltage be lifted to one it is critical Point, i.e., when the working condition of M6 becomes saturation region, i.e. i6=2*i4, the size of M4 and M6 have twice of relationship (the 6th crystal Pipe the breadth length ratio of M6 is 2 times of the 4th transistor M4 breadth length ratios), it is exactly critical at this time when electric current is also 2 times of relationships Point.When postcritical, M5 and M7 are opened rapidly, and instead of the function of M4 and M6, all micro-current i3 that M3 is provided at this time are then M2 and M5 are all flowed through, output is reversed.
Hysteresis effect is exactly introduced by adding the positive feedback effect that two pipes of M6 and M7 generate.The ruler of M6 and M7 It is very little must must M4 and M5 it is big, otherwise just lose hysteresis effect.Exemplary, the breadth length ratio of the 6th transistor M6 is described the 2 times of four transistor M4 breadth length ratios;The breadth length ratio of the 7th transistor M7 is 2 times of the 5th transistor M5 breadth length ratios.
M8~M11 is simple current mirror, and the electric current of M4 and M5 is distinguished mirror image to M11 and M9, finally to approach electricity The voltage vout outputs on source ground.
The dimension scale for depending mainly on the size of M4 and M6 of hysteresis voltage:Because of i1=i4, i2=i6, and i6=2* I4, so i2=2*i1.The size of M1 and M2, all, only electric current has 2 times of relationships to VT, so according to metal-oxide-semiconductor saturation region electricity Flow formula:I=0.5*W/L*K* (Vgs-VT) ^2, can calculate respective Vgs1 and Vgs2, at this time u+ and threshold voltage u+ As Vgs1-Vgs2.U+ and threshold voltage u- can be similarly released, because being holohedral symmetry relationship, u- and u+ are equal in magnitude, symbol On the contrary, to obtain hysteresis voltage Vh by u+ and u-.
The relaxor that the present embodiment proposes utilizes sluggish ratio by replacing common continuous comparator with hysteresis comparator Equivalent gain eliminates the self-excitation of potential fast feedback loop for 0 property when compared with device near hysteresis voltage, to improve The stability of relaxation oscillator.
