Description

PMOS access switch control circuit
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of power supply control, in particular to a PMOS (P-channel metal oxide semiconductor) access switch control circuit.
Background
At present, the popularity of the rapid charging technology in portable intelligent mobile electronics such as smart phones, notebook computers, tablet computers and the like is higher and higher, especially, the USB PPS (Universal Serial Bus Programmable Power Supply) supports 20mV continuous voltage regulation in a range of 3.3V to 21V, and can support a battery direct charging technology.
When the adapter supports the USB PPS specification, the protocol requirement must support 20mV step continuous voltage regulation in the range of 3.3V to 21V. When the communication of the quick charging protocol between the adapter and the charging equipment is unsuccessful, the adapter must output zero potential, and when the charging equipment successfully communicates and applies for a power demand, the adapter can output a corresponding power according to the application of the charging equipment. Therefore, the output terminal of the USB PD adapter generally has a pass switch for controlling the power supply path.
The power supply path is typically implemented using either PMOS or NMOS. When a PMOS is used as a power path switch, as shown in fig. 1 in the prior art, when the PMOS is turned on, the gate voltage of the PMOS is pulled down, and meanwhile, a clamping circuit is added to ensure that the gate-source voltage is within the safe operating voltage range of the PMOS. If the PMOS gate-source voltage is 5V for normal operation, the gate-source voltage will be clamped to around 5V. If the charging equipment supports USB PPS, and simultaneously sends out a voltage application between 3.3V and 5V, the adapter outputs 3.3V to 5V according to the equipment application. When the charger outputs a voltage in a range of 3.3-5.0V, such as 3.3V, the gate voltage of the PMOS transistor can only be pulled to ground in the conventional method, and VGS =3.3V. When VGS =3.3V, the internal resistance of the PMOS transistor is increased due to the low gate-source voltage, which increases the power consumption of the PMOS channel, thereby reducing the power supply efficiency of the charger, even causing the charger to generate heat seriously, and causing the system to fail to work normally.

In addition, specific circuit diagrams of the additional voltage linear converter in the present invention are shown in fig. 3-4.
Specifically, in order to solve the disadvantages of the conventional PMOS pass switch control circuit, the present invention provides a pass control method and circuit for controlling the gate-source voltage of the PMOS transistor of the pass to be a constant value by using a charge pump according to the variation of the input voltage. Through the circuit, when the transmitted input power supply voltage VIN is low, the grid-source voltage of the channel PMOS tube can be kept at a certain voltage value, so that the internal resistance of the channel PMOS tube in the process of transmitting low power supply voltage is effectively reduced, the system efficiency is improved, and the system heating is reduced.
As shown in fig. 2, a detection circuit of the input power VIN, an LDO as an additional voltage linear converter, and a negative voltage charge pump are added on the basis of the conventional PMOS gate driving circuit and VGS clamping circuit.
The voltage clamping circuit is a circuit commonly used in the industry, and generally, a Zener diode can be used, the reverse breakdown voltage of the Zener diode is selected to be close to the maximum normal working voltage of a PMOS (P-channel metal oxide semiconductor) grid source, and the reverse breakdown voltage of the Zener diode can be used for realizing the function of the clamping circuit. The output of the PMOS gate drive circuit is connected to the PMOS gate, while one end is connected to the input voltage detection circuit. The PMOS gate driver circuit is also commonly used in the industry, and as shown in fig. 6, the PMOS transistor can be turned off and on by pulling up the PMOS gate and pulling down the NMOS gate. The input voltage detection circuit is connected to an input power VIN, the output of the input voltage detection circuit is connected to the additional voltage linear converter, meanwhile, the output of the input voltage detection circuit is connected to the PMOS gate drive circuit and the negative voltage charge pump, and a VIN detection signal is sent to the additional voltage linear converter, the PMOS gate drive circuit and the negative voltage charge pump. The input voltage detection circuit is a general circuit in the industry, and can detect the input voltage by using a divider resistor and a comparator. The control end of the additional voltage linear converter is connected to the input voltage detection circuit, the input end of the additional voltage linear converter is connected to VIN, and the output end of the additional voltage linear converter is connected to the negative voltage charge pump. The negative charge pump has a positive input connected to the output of the additional voltage linear converter and a negative output connected to the PMOS gate.
Assuming that the normal voltage of the grid source opening of the PMOS tube is VGS SET (typically 5V or 10V etc. are possible). When the input voltage detection circuit detects VIN>VGS SET At this time, the additional voltage linear converter is turned off and the negative voltage charge pump is turned off. The PMOS access switch control circuit works in the same way as the conventional control circuit, and the PMOS grid electrode is pulled down and pulled up by the PMOS grid electrode driving circuit to control the conduction and the disconnection of the PMOS tube. The gate-source voltage clamping circuit may be implemented with a corresponding reverse breakdown voltage zener diode. For example, the gate-source voltage of PMOS is 5V, and the reverse breakdown voltage is about 5VThe voltage clamping circuit ensures that VGS does not exceed VGS SET . When the input voltage detection circuit detects VIN<VGS SET When the voltage source voltage is reduced, the pull-down circuit of the PMOS gate drive circuit is turned off, the additional voltage linear converter starts to work, and VLDO = VGS is generated from VIN according to the change of VIN SET VIN and VLDO to a negative charge pump. The output end of the negative voltage charge pump is connected to the grid of the PMOS, the negative voltage charge pump receives the VLDO, and is controlled by the input voltage detection circuit to start working, and the grid is driven to VLDO = - (VGS) by the negative voltage charge pump SET -VIN), thereby achieving VGS = VIN + VLDO = VGS SET . The negative charge pump is shown in fig. 5, and the process of driving the gate to a negative potential is as follows: in the first phase, switches S1 and S3 are closed and S2 and S4 are open. The upper plate of the flying capacitor is connected to the output of the LDO by S1, and the lower plate is connected to the ground by S3. Thus the capacitor is charged by the LDO and the voltage difference across the capacitor equals VLDO. In the second phase, switches S1 and S3 are open and S2 and S4 are closed. The capacitor top plate is connected to ground by S2, the capacitor bottom plate is connected to output terminal VOUT by S4, and the charge pump output terminal VOUT is connected to the gate of the PMOS pass switch. Because the voltage at the two ends of the capacitor is kept unchanged, the upper pole plate of the capacitor is connected to the ground end, and the charge pump outputs negative voltage-VLDO at the VOUT end. The input VIN of the negative voltage charge pump is the output VLDO of the additional linear converter, wherein VLDO = VGS SET -VIN. The gate of the PMOS transistor will be driven to a negative potential- (VGS) SET -VIN). Therefore, the difference between the PMOS gate-source voltages is VGS = VIN + (VGS) SET -VIN)=VGS SET . Thereby ensuring that the PMOS grid source voltage is maintained at VGS SET Therefore, the PMOS on-resistance is not increased along with the reduction of VIN.
Fig. 3 is a basic principle schematic of the additional voltage linear converter referred to in the present invention. When VIN is detected<VGS SET When VIN is found<VGS SET The circuit starts to operate. The voltage difference detection circuit detects VIN and VGS SET Is output simultaneously with a sum of VIN and VGS SET Voltage VR proportional to the difference of (1) as the subsequent stage LD O I.e. VR = K × (VGS) SET -VIN). Wherein K is a proportionality coefficient, and the subsequent LDO is from VIN according to VRProducing VLDO = VGS SET -VIN. The principle of LDO is well known and will not be described here.
FIG. 4 is a detailed description of FIG. 3, based on the principle of using an operational amplifier to convert VGS SET Conversion to one and VGS SET The proportional current is converted into a current source through a PMOS mirror image
Figure BDA0003219750410000101
Is applied to a resistor R to generate a sum VGS SET A proportional voltage. Meanwhile, VIN is converted into a current proportional to VIN by another operational amplifier, and then the current is converted into a current by PMOS current mirror and primary NMOS current mirror
Figure BDA0003219750410000102
And then to the same resistor terminal as the current source Isource. Thereby, a sum VGS can be generated on the resistor SET Voltage VR, VR = R × (Isource-Isink), i.e. VR = K × (VGS), proportional to the difference in VIN SET -VIN). The VR is transmitted to a later LDO, and the later LDO amplifies the VR to 1/K times to obtain VLDO = VGS SET -VIN。
Fig. 7 is an implementation of an input voltage detection circuit. The input voltage is divided by two resistors, and then the divided voltage signal is connected to the positive input end of a comparator, and the negative input end of the comparator is connected to a reference voltage for comparison, so that whether the input voltage is higher than VGS or not is detected SET . When VIN > VGS SET At time, the comparator outputs a high signal. When VIN is less than VGS SET When so, the comparator outputs a high signal. The voltage detection circuit is a well-known technology in the industry and has various implementation modes.
The simplest way of voltage clamping is to use a zener diode, implemented with a zener diode reverse breakdown voltage. When the voltage applied to the two ends of the Zener diode exceeds the reverse breakdown voltage of the Zener diode, the Zener diode breaks down in the reverse direction, and the voltage drop of the two ends is clamped at the reverse breakdown voltage. Such as the zener diode shown in fig. 6, functions as a PMOS gate-source voltage clamp. In addition, as shown in fig. 8, a plurality of MOS transistors may be connected in series to realize a clamping function of the PMOS gate-source voltage. The MOS tubes can be connected in series by NMOS or PMOS. In addition, the voltage clamping circuit can be realized by adopting a mode of connecting a diode or a triode in series, and the realization modes are all known in the industry of the voltage clamping circuit.
Further, simplification can be made on the basis of fig. 2, and the same purpose can be achieved. Wherein the additional voltage linear converter can be a general LDO with a fixed output voltage. For example, if the normal operation start-up voltage of PMOS is VGS SET Such as VGS SET =5V, the LDO voltage may be set to a fixed 3V. When the input voltage VIN is less than VGS SET When the LDO output is fixed 3V, VLDO =3V. The negative charge pump starts to work, pumping the gate voltage to a negative potential with VLDO =3V. Meanwhile, a Zener diode with reverse breakdown voltage of about 5V-6V is selected as a voltage clamping circuit. The gate-source voltage is clamped at the breakdown voltage of the zener diode due to the clamping zener diode, so the charge pump cannot pump the gate voltage to-3V. Therefore, the VGS voltage can be kept under a larger voltage difference, and the reduction of the PMOS internal resistance is ensured. The method is simple to realize, but the Zener diode is in a breakdown state, so that the Zener diode leaks electricity when in breakdown, and the power consumption of the whole circuit is increased.
Further, when VIN<VGS SET When the PMOS is turned on, the gate voltage of the PMOS needs to be driven to a negative voltage, and the pull-down path of the gate driving circuit shown in fig. 6 needs to be turned off, because the gate voltage is a negative potential, the PMOS transistor M2 shown in fig. 6 should be connected in series by two back-to-back PMOS transistors, so as to prevent the pull-down path from being turned off. This is also a technique well known in the art.
Furthermore, the charge pump has a plurality of structures, the control method is variable, and the same function can be realized by slightly changing the structure. Modifications to the details of the charge pump circuit, or to the details of the LDO circuit, which are based on the present invention, are well within the scope of the basic principles set forth in this patent.
The embodiments in the present description are described in a progressive manner, each embodiment focuses on differences from other embodiments, and the same and similar parts among the embodiments are referred to each other. Meanwhile, for a person skilled in the art, according to the idea of the present invention, the specific embodiments and the application range may be changed. In view of the above, the present disclosure should not be construed as limiting the invention.
