Detailed Description
FIG. 1 is a circuit diagram of a temperature sensing circuit according to an embodiment of the invention. Referring to fig. 1, in the present embodiment, a temperature sensing circuit 100 includes a sensing chip 110, at least one bipolar device (here, 4 bipolar transistors BT 1-BT 4 are taken as an example), and a voltage stabilizing capacitor CX 1. The input/output interface of the sense chip 110 has a plurality of pins, and the pins at least include at least one sense terminal (for example, 4 sense terminals PS 1-PS 4 corresponding to 4 bipolar transistors BT 1-BT 4), a reference voltage terminal PVR and a low voltage terminal PVL.
The bipolar transistors BT 1-BT 4 are coupled in a diode type, wherein the bases and collectors of the bipolar transistors BT 1-BT 4 are commonly coupled to the reference voltage terminal PVR to receive the regulated reference voltage VREF, and the emitters of the bipolar transistors BT 1-BT 4 are respectively coupled to the sensing terminals PS 1-PS 4. Further, an emitter of the bipolar transistor BT1 is coupled to the sensing terminal PS1, and an emitter of the bipolar transistor BT2 is coupled to the sensing terminal PS2, which are shown in fig. 1 and will not be described herein. The voltage stabilizing capacitor CX1 is coupled between the reference voltage terminal PVR and the ground voltage. The low voltage terminal PVL receives a ground voltage to provide a system low voltage AVSS.
The sensing chip 110 is configured with at least a multiplexer MX1, a multiplexer MX2, a current source Cu1, a sensing amplifier circuit 111, an analog-to-digital converter 113, and a voltage regulator 115. The voltage regulator 115 is coupled to the reference voltage terminal PVR to provide a regulated reference voltage VREF, i.e., after the reference voltage VREF provided by the reference voltage terminal PVR is regulated by the voltage regulator 115, the voltage ripple is suppressed or even eliminated.
The multiplexer MX1 is coupled between the sensing terminals PS 1-PS 4 and the negative sensing terminal NIN of the sense amplifier circuit 111 and the current source Cu 1. Further, a plurality of input terminals of the multiplexer MX1 are respectively coupled to the sensing terminals PS1 to PS4, and an output terminal of the multiplexer MX1 is coupled to the negative sensing terminal NIN of the sense amplifying circuit 111, so as to be sequentially coupled to the negative sensing terminal NIN of the sense amplifying circuit 111 to one of the sensing terminals PS1 to PS 4. The multiplexer MX2 is coupled between the sensing terminals PS 1-PS 4 and the current source Cu 1. Furthermore, a plurality of input terminals of the multiplexer MX2 are respectively coupled to the sensing terminals PS1 to PS4, and an output terminal of the multiplexer MX2 is coupled to the current source Cu1, so as to sequentially couple the current source Cu1 to one of the sensing terminals PS1 to PS 4. The current source Cu1 is coupled between the output of the multiplexer MX1 and the system low voltage AVSS.
In the embodiment, the positive sensing terminal PIN of the sensing amplifying circuit 111 is coupled to the reference voltage terminal 115, and the negative sensing terminal NIN of the sensing amplifying circuit 111 is coupled to one of the sensing terminals PS1 to PS4 through the multiplexer MX 1. When the negative sensing terminal NIN of the sense amplifying circuit 111 is coupled to the sensing terminal PS1 through the multiplexer MX1, since the reference voltage VREF is a relatively pure voltage source (i.e., the ripple is very low), the voltage difference between the base (corresponding to the positive terminal of the bipolar device) and the emitter (corresponding to the negative terminal of the bipolar device) of the transistor BT1 is related to the ambient temperature around the transistor BT1 and the constant current provided by the current source Cu 1. Then, the sensing amplifier circuit 111 amplifies the reference voltage VREF and the voltage at the sensing terminal PS1, so that the positive sensing output terminal POT and the negative sensing output terminal NOT of the sensing amplifier circuit 111 provide the positive output voltage Voutp and the negative output voltage Voutn, respectively, and the voltage difference between the positive output voltage Voutp and the negative output voltage Voutn is the temperature-dependent voltage Vout 1.
The adc 113 is coupled to the positive sense output terminal POT and the negative sense output terminal NOT of the sense amplifier circuit 111 to receive the temperature-related voltage Vout1, and performs an analog-to-digital conversion on the temperature-related voltage Vout1 to provide temperature data DTR.
In this embodiment, the multiplexer MX1 has switches SWX 1-SWX 4, wherein the switches SWX 1-SWX 4 can fixedly turn on one of the switches SWX 1-SWX 4 according to the temperature sensing requirement, turn on one of the switches SWX 1-SWX 4 according to a specific sequence, or turn on one of the switches SWX 1-SWX 4 according to a specific sequence (for example, select, but not limited to, SWX1, SWX3, and SWX4 in SWX 1-SWX 4, and then turn on according to the sequence of SWX4 → SWX3 → SWX 1), and if there is no temperature sensing requirement, all of the switches SWX 1-SWX 4 can be turned off, which can be determined according to the circuit operation of an external circuit (e.g., a controller, a chipset). In the embodiment, the multiplexer MX2 has switches SWY1 to SWY4, wherein the switches SWY1 to SWY4 are operated synchronously with the switches SWX1 to SWX4, that is, the switches SWY1 and SWX1 are turned on and off simultaneously, the switches SWY2 and SWX2 are turned on and off simultaneously, and the rest is done in the same way.
On the other hand, the sense amplifying circuit 111 includes first to fourth capacitors C1 to C4, first to eighth switches SW1 to SW8, and an operational amplifier OP 1. The first switch SW1 is coupled between the first terminal of the first capacitor C1 and the reference voltage terminal VREF. The second switch SW2 is coupled between the first terminal of the first capacitor C1 and the intermediate voltage Vcm. The third switch SW3 is coupled between the first end of the second capacitor C2 and the output end of the multiplexer MX 1. The fourth switch SW4 is coupled between the first terminal of the second capacitor C2 and the intermediate voltage Vcm.
The fifth switch SW5 is coupled between the second terminal of the first capacitor C1 and the intermediate voltage Vcm. The sixth switch SW6 is coupled between the second terminal of the first capacitor C1 and the positive input terminal of the operational amplifier OP 1. The seventh switch SW7 is coupled between the second terminal of the second capacitor C2 and the intermediate voltage Vcm. The eighth switch SW8 is coupled between the second terminal of the second capacitor C2 and the negative input terminal of the operational amplifier OP 1. The third capacitor C3 is coupled between the positive input terminal of the operational amplifier OP1 and the positive output terminal of the operational amplifier OP 1. The fourth capacitor C4 is coupled between the negative input terminal of the operational amplifier OP1 and the negative output terminal of the operational amplifier OP 1. The positive output terminal of the operational amplifier OP1 is coupled to the positive sensing output terminal POT of the sensing amplifier circuit 111 for outputting the positive output voltage Voutp, and the negative output terminal of the operational amplifier OP1 is coupled to the negative sensing output terminal NOT of the sensing amplifier circuit 111 for outputting the negative output voltage Voutn.
In the present embodiment, the ratio of the first capacitor C1 to the third capacitor C3 determines the gain of the positive output voltage Voutp, and the ratio of the second capacitor C2 to the fourth capacitor C4 determines the gain of the negative output voltage Voutn. In order to accurately reflect the voltage difference between the base and the emitter of the transistors BT 1-BT 4, the capacitance values of the first capacitor C1 and the second capacitor C2 are set to be the same, and the capacitance values of the third capacitor C3 and the fourth capacitor C4 are set to be the same.
In the embodiment, the first switch SW1, the third switch SW3, the fifth switch SW5 and the seventh switch SW7 are controlled by a control signal Φ 1, and the second switch SW2, the fourth switch SW4, the sixth switch SW6 and the eighth switch SW8 are controlled by a control signal Φ 2, wherein the control signals Φ 1 and Φ 2 are sequentially enabled during the temperature sensing period.
Further, during the first sensing period, the control signal Φ 1 is enabled first, and the control signal Φ 2 is disabled. At this time, the first switch SW1, the third switch SW3, the fifth switch SW5 and the seventh switch SW7 are turned on by the control signal Φ 1, and the second switch SW2, the fourth switch SW4, the sixth switch SW6 and the eighth switch SW8 are turned off by the control signal Φ 2. Accordingly, the charge stored in the first capacitor C1 is equal to (VREF-Vcm) × C1, the charge stored in the second capacitor C2 is equal to (VREF-VBE-Vcm) × C2, where VBE is the difference between the base and the emitter of the transistors BT1 to BT4, VREF is the reference voltage VREF, Vcm is the intermediate voltage Vcm, C1 is the capacitance value of the capacitor C1, and C2 is the capacitance value of the capacitor C2.
Then, in a second sensing period after the first sensing period, the control signal Φ 1 is disabled and the control signal Φ 2 is enabled. At this time, the first switch SW1, the third switch SW3, the fifth switch SW5 and the seventh switch SW7 are turned off by the control signal Φ 1, and the second switch SW2, the fourth switch SW4, the sixth switch SW6 and the eighth switch SW8 are turned on by the control signal Φ 2. Therefore, the voltage across the third capacitor C3 is equal to (VREF-Vcm) × C1/C3, and the voltage across the fourth capacitor C4 is equal to (VREF-VBE-Vcm) × C2/C4.
After the first sensing period and the second sensing period, the positive output voltage Voutp will be Vcm + (VREF-Vcm) C1/C3, and the negative output voltage Voutn will be Vcm + (VREF-VBE-Vcm) C2/C4. Since the capacitance of the first capacitor C1 is the same as the capacitance of the second capacitor C2 and the capacitance of the third capacitor C3 is the same as the capacitance of the fourth capacitor C4, the temperature-dependent voltage Vout1 is VBE × C1/C3. In the bipolar transistor, the voltage difference between the base and the emitter of the transistor is related to the ambient temperature, so that the change of the ambient temperature can be sensed through the change of the voltage difference between the base and the emitter of the transistor. Also, since the reference voltage terminal PVR is a known configuration in the sensing chip 100, the number of pins can be reduced.
In the embodiment, the bipolar devices are exemplified by bipolar transistors BT 1-BT 4, but in other embodiments, the bipolar devices may be implemented by diodes, and the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto. In addition, in the embodiment, a plurality of bipolar transistors BT 1-BT 4 are used, but in other embodiments, only a single bipolar transistor (e.g., BT 1-BT 4) may be provided, i.e., only a single sensing terminal (e.g., PS 1-PS 4) may be used, depending on the application environment. At this time, the negative sensing terminal NIN of the sense amplifying circuit 111 and the current source Cu1 can be directly coupled to the single sensing terminal (e.g., PS 1-PS 4) without configuring the multiplexer MX 1.
FIG. 2 is a circuit diagram of a temperature sensing circuit according to another embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the temperature sensing circuit 200 is substantially the same as the temperature sensing circuit 100, except for the bipolar transistors BT1 a-BT 4a, the current source Cu2 and the sense amplifier circuit 111a, wherein the same or similar elements are given the same or similar reference numerals. The current source Cu2 is coupled between the output of the multiplexer MX2 and the system high voltage OVDD.
In the embodiment, bases and collectors of the bipolar transistors BT1 a-BT 4a are respectively coupled to the corresponding sensing terminals PS 1-PS 4, and emitters of the bipolar transistors BT1 a-BT 4a are commonly coupled to the reference voltage terminal PVR to receive the regulated reference voltage VREF. Further, the base and the collector of the bipolar transistor BT1a are coupled to the sensing terminal PS1, and the base and the collector of the bipolar transistor BT2a are coupled to the sensing terminal PS2, which is shown in fig. 2 and will not be described herein.
The positive sensing terminal PIN of the sensing amplifying circuit 111a is coupled to one of the sensing terminals PS 1-PS 4 through the multiplexer MX1, and the negative sensing terminal NIN of the sensing amplifying circuit 111a is coupled to the reference voltage terminal PVR. The sense amplifier circuit 111 amplifies the reference voltage VREF and the voltage of one of the sense terminals PS1 to PS4, so that the positive sense output terminal POT and the negative sense output terminal NOT of the sense amplifier circuit 111 provide a positive output voltage Voutp and a negative output voltage Voutn, respectively, and the voltage difference between the positive output voltage Voutp and the negative output voltage Voutn is the temperature-dependent voltage Vout1 corresponding to one of the bipolar transistors BT1a to BT4 a.
Further, during the first sensing period, the charge stored in the first capacitor C1 is equal to (VBE + VREF-Vcm) × C1, the charge stored in the second capacitor C2 is equal to (VREF-Vcm) × C2, where VBE is the difference between the base and the emitter of the transistors BT 1-BT 4, VREF is the reference voltage VREF, Vcm is the intermediate voltage Vcm, C1 is the capacitance value of the capacitor C1, and C2 is the capacitance value of the capacitor C2.
In a second sensing period after the first sensing period, the voltage across the third capacitor C3 is equal to (VBE + VREF-Vcm) × C1/C3, and the voltage across the fourth capacitor C4 is equal to (VREF-Vcm) × C2/C4. After the first sensing period and the second sensing period, the positive output voltage Voutp is Vcm + (VBE + VREF-Vcm) × C1/C3, and the negative output voltage Voutn is Vcm + (VREF-Vcm) × C2/C4. In the embodiment, it is assumed that the capacitance of the first capacitor C1 is the same as that of the second capacitor C2 and the capacitance of the third capacitor C3 is the same as that of the fourth capacitor C4, so that the temperature-dependent voltage Vout1 is VBE × C1/C3.
In summary, the temperature sensing circuit according to the embodiment of the invention utilizes the reference voltage terminal of the sensing chip as the voltage source of the bipolar device to suppress the circuit interference through the voltage regulator. Therefore, the accuracy of temperature sensing can be improved without configuring additional terminals, thereby reducing hardware cost. Furthermore, the voltage across the bipolar element can be extracted by the differential amplifier circuit, so as to further suppress circuit noise.
Although the present invention has been described with reference to the above embodiments, it should be understood that various changes and modifications can be made therein by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
