The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the application and not limiting of the application. It should be noted that, for convenience of description, only a portion related to the related application is shown in the drawings. Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing embodiments of the present disclosure only and is not intended to be limiting of the present disclosure. In the following description, reference is made to "some embodiments" which describe a subset of all possible embodiments, but it is to be understood that "some embodiments" can be the same subset or different subsets of all possible embodiments and can be combined with one another without conflict. It should be noted that the term "first/second/third" in relation to the embodiments of the present disclosure is merely used to distinguish similar objects and does not represent a particular ordering for the objects, it being understood that the "first/second/third" may be interchanged with a particular order or sequencing, if allowed, to enable the embodiments of the present disclosure described herein to be implemented in an order other than illustrated or described.
The following is a description of terms and relationships related to embodiments of the present disclosure:
dynamic random access memory (Dynamic Random Access Memory, DRAM);
a synchronous dynamic random access memory (Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory, SDRAM);
double Data Rate memory (DDR);
fourth generation DDR (4 th DDR, DDR 4);
fifth generation DDR (5 th DDR, DDR 5);
low Power DDR (LPDDR).
Currently, after a memory (for example, a DRAM) receives a strobe clock signal DQS and a data signal DQ, the strobe clock signal DQS needs to be adjusted through a clock tree (or referred to as DQS tree) to expect that the delay, the phase, the clock period, etc. of the adjusted strobe clock signal DQS meet the requirements, and at the same time, the adjusted strobe clock signal DQS and the data signal DQ need to be in an aligned state. However, since the strobe clock signal DQS needs to be processed by a clock tree, the delay of the strobe clock signal DQS is often greater than the data signal DQ, and the deviation (tDQS 2 DQ) between the two is easily beyond the specification of the industry standard document (SPEC), so that sampling errors occur, and the performance of the memory is degraded.
Embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to fig. 1, a schematic diagram of a signal sampling circuit 10 provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. As shown in fig. 1, the signal sampling circuit 10 includes:
an interface group 11 configured to receive a data signal DQ and a strobe clock signal DQs from the outside;
a cascade amplification module 12 connected to the interface group 11 and configured to amplify and delay the data signal DQ to generate and output an intermediate data signal;
a clock processing module 13, connected to the interface group 11, configured to divide and delay the strobe clock signal DQS, and generate and output a plurality of sampling clock signals (e.g., clk_ I, CLK _ Q, CLK _ib, clk_qb in fig. 1);
the sampling module 14 is connected to the cascade amplifying module 12 and the clock processing module 13, and is configured to sample the intermediate data signal with a plurality of sampling clock signals, and output a plurality of target data signals (for example, out_ I, out _ Q, out _ib and out_qb in fig. 1).
The signal sampling circuit 10 may be applied to a memory, for example, DRAM, SDRAM, DDR, LPDDR, and will be described below by taking a DRAM as an example.
Here, the clock processing module 13 includes, but is not limited to, the aforementioned clock tree. In this way, after receiving the strobe clock signal DQS and the data signal DQ, the clock processing module 13 not only adjusts the strobe clock signal DQS, but also adjusts the data signal DQ through the cascade amplification module 12, so as to reduce the delay (tDQS 2 DQ) between the intermediate data signal and the sampling clock signal, better conform to the specification of the industry standard document (SPEC), and improve the sampling accuracy; in addition, the cascade amplification module 12 can also increase the signal strength and improve the signal transmission performance at high frequencies.
In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2, the cascode amplification module 12 includes M cascaded amplification units; the input end of the 1 st stage amplifying unit receives the data signal DQ, the input end of the i+1 th stage amplifying unit is connected with the output end of the i stage amplifying unit, and the output end of the M stage amplifying unit outputs an intermediate data signal.
It should be noted that, M is a positive integer, and i is a positive integer smaller than M depending on the application scenario. In addition, the amplifying unit may be implemented by a variable gain amplifier (Variable Gain Amplifier, VGA). It should be understood that the variable gain amplifier may be of various types, and any of the amplification units may be constructed.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 2, the number of sampling clock signals, intermediate data signals, and target data signals is N. Here, N is a positive integer, and fig. 2 illustrates n=4 as an example.
Here, the level states of the N intermediate data signals are the same, the clock periods of the N sampling clock signals are the same, and the phases of the N sampling clock signals are different from each other. Taking fig. 2 as an example, the phases of two adjacent sampling clock signals are 90 degrees apart within the error tolerance range, that is, clk_q is delayed by 90 degrees from clk_i, clk_ib is delayed by 180 degrees from clk_i, and clk_qb is delayed by 270 degrees from clk_i with reference to clk_i.
As shown in fig. 2, the sampling module 14 includes N sampling units; a j-th sampling unit configured to receive the j-th sampling clock signal and the j-th intermediate data signal, sample the j-th intermediate data signal using the j-th sampling clock signal, and output a j-th target data signal; wherein j is a positive integer, and j is less than or equal to N.
In this way, sampling clock signals of different phases can sample the intermediate data signal at different times to obtain corresponding information.
In a specific embodiment, the sampling module 14 includes N samplers, i.e., the jth sampling unit includes the jth sampler; the input end of the jth sampler receives the jth intermediate data signal, the clock end of the jth sampler receives the jth sampling clock signal, and the output end of the jth sampler outputs the jth target data signal.
In another specific embodiment, as shown in fig. 2 or 3, the sampling module 14 includes N adders and N samplers (fig. 3 is also shown with n=4 as an example), that is, the jth sampling unit includes a jth adder and a jth sampler; a first input end of the j-th adder receives the j-th intermediate data signal, and a second input end of the j-th adder is connected with an output end of at least one sampler as shown in fig. 3; the input end of the jth sampler is connected with the output end of the jth adder, the clock end of the jth sampler receives the jth sampling clock signal, and the output end of the jth sampler outputs the jth target data signal.
In particular, in fig. 2, the input of the adder is also connected to the output of at least one sampler, but omitted.
It should be noted that, the adder mainly realizes the decision feedback balance function. It should be understood that each data interface receives a plurality of data signals DQ transmitted in serial, the level state of the data signal with the preceding timing will affect the level state of the data signal with the following timing, and the adder can eliminate the effect as much as possible, so as to avoid the error of the decision result of the data signal DQ; that is, the adder serves to reduce the influence of the first a intermediate data signals on the voltage value of the current intermediate data signal. Here, a=4 is shown in fig. 3.
In addition, the sampler may be implemented by a D-type flip-flop.
It should be noted that each stage of amplifying unit includes at least 1 amplifier, and the number of amplifiers of the i+1th stage of amplifying unit is not smaller than the number of amplifiers of the i th stage of amplifying unit.
In the amplifying unit of the same stage, different amplifiers are connected in parallel. The number of amplifiers in the preceding stage amplifying unit is not smaller than the number of amplifiers in the following stage amplifying unit, so that the output signal of each amplifier serves as at least the input signal of one of the following stage amplifiers.
It should be noted that, the input signals of all the amplifiers belonging to the same stage are in the same level state, and the output signals of all the amplifiers belonging to the same stage are in the same level state.
Assuming m=3, n=4, several examples of cascade amplification modules are given below:
example 1: as shown in fig. 4, the 1 st stage amplifying unit includes 1 amplifier, the 2 nd stage amplifying unit includes 2 amplifiers, and the 3 rd stage amplifying unit includes 4 amplifiers;
example 2: as shown in fig. 5, the 1 st stage amplifying unit includes 1 amplifier, the 2 nd stage amplifying unit includes 4 amplifiers, and the 3 rd stage amplifying unit includes 4 amplifiers;

In another case, after receiving the data signal, an inverted signal of the data signal is obtained through an inverter, and the data signal and the inverted signal thereof together constitute a pair of signals received by an amplifier in the 1 st stage amplifying unit. Correspondingly, a pair of signals output by the amplifier in the amplifying unit of the last stage are converted into single-ended intermediate data signals through the comparator.

It should also be noted that in the cascade amplification module, the structure of each amplifier is similar.

It should be noted that, the control end of the third switching tube 33 receives the first clock control signal, the control end of the fourth switching tube 34 receives the second clock control signal, and the resistance values of the first resistor 35, the second resistor 36 and the third resistor 38 are fixed. Here, when the amplifier performs signal amplification processing, the first clock control signal controls the third switching transistor 33 to be turned on, and the second clock control signal controls the fourth switching transistor 34 to be turned on.
Based on the architecture of the amplifier shown in fig. 4 and the internal structure of the amplifier shown in fig. 9, please refer to fig. 10, which schematically illustrates a detailed structure of a cascade amplification module.
It should be noted that, because the process errors of the different memories are different, the timing offset (tDQS 2 DQ) generated by the data signal and the clock signal in the transmission process in the different memories is different, so the delay time generated by the cascade amplification module 12 may be set to be adjustable, so that the delay time is set according to the actual test result of each memory, and the timing offset problem is further improved.
In a first possible implementation, the delay time generated by each amplifying unit is fixed, and the cascade amplifying module 12 may adjust the number of turn-on stages of the amplifying units in each transmission link, thereby adjusting the delay time of the data signal DQ.
Correspondingly, the signal sampling circuit 10 further comprises a parameter module; a parameter module configured to receive the offset detection signal, generate a first adjustment code based on the offset detection signal; wherein the offset detection signal indicates a timing offset (tDQS 2 DQ) between the sampling clock signal and the intermediate data signal;
the cascade amplification module 12 is further configured to receive a first adjustment code, and control the working state of each stage of amplification unit based on the first adjustment code; the working state comprises an opening state and a closing state; if the amplifying unit is in an on state, the amplifying unit amplifies and delays the input signal to generate an output signal; if the amplifying unit is in the off state, the amplifying unit directly transmits the input signal to generate an output signal.
Taking the cascade amplification module 12 shown in fig. 4 to 7 as an example, each stage of amplification unit will generate a delay of 0.2 nanoseconds (ns) when in the on state, and the data signal DQ needs a delay of 0.4ns in total through testing, the 1 st stage amplification unit and the 2 nd stage amplification unit can be turned on, and the 3 rd stage amplification unit can be turned off. In particular, when the amplifying unit is turned off, the amplifying unit is not in an off state, and still performs a signal transmission function, but the delay between the input signal and the output signal is extremely small (negligible).
In a second possible implementation, the delay time generated by each amplifying unit is a variable range, and the cascade amplifying module 12 can adjust the delay parameter of each amplifying unit, so as to adjust the overall delay time of the data signal. Of course, the delay times of amplifying units belonging to the same stage must be uniform.
Correspondingly, the signal sampling circuit 10 further comprises a parameter module; a parameter module configured to receive the offset detection signal, generate a second adjustment code based on the offset detection signal; wherein the second adjust code indicates a timing offset (tDQS 2 DQ) between the sample clock signal and the intermediate data signal;
the cascade amplification module 12 is further configured to receive a second adjustment code, and control the delay parameter of each stage of amplification unit based on the second adjustment code; the amplifying unit amplifies and delays the input signal based on the second adjustment code to generate an output signal, and the delay time between the input signal and the output signal is controlled by the second adjustment code.
For example, taking the cascade amplification module 12 shown in fig. 4 to 7 as an example, each stage of amplifying unit can generate a delay of 0.1ns to 0.3ns, and according to the test, the delay of the data signal needs 0.4ns in total, the delay of the stage 1 amplifying unit can be controlled to be 0.2ns, the delay of the stage 2 amplifying unit is controlled to be 0.1ns, and the delay of the stage 3 amplifying unit is controlled to be 0.1ns.
With the mechanism of "delay parameters of the cascade amplification module 12 are configured to be adjusted by the first adjustment code", the following control principles of 2 kinds of amplifiers are provided for the amplifier shown in fig. 9.

(2) In the case where the current stage amplifying unit is instructed to be in the off state, the first resistor 35 is in the minimum resistance state (R min ) The second resistor 36 is in a minimum resistance state (R min ) Thereby accelerating the signal amplification process, which is equivalent to the amplification unit performing direct transmission processing on the input signal; while the third resistor 38 is in a smaller resistance state.
In the second embodiment, as shown in fig. 12, the resistance values of the first resistor 35, the second resistor 36, and the third resistor 38 are all fixed; the amplifier further comprises a fifth switching tube 37 and a sixth switching tube 38; the working principle is as follows: (1) In the case where the current stage amplifying unit is instructed to be in the on state, both the third switching tube 33 and the fourth switching tube 34 are turned on, and the fifth switching tube 37 and the sixth switching tube 38 are turned off, which corresponds to the amplifying unit performing delay transmission processing on the input signal; while the third resistor 38 is in a larger resistance state; (2) In the case where the amplifying unit is instructed to be in the off state, the third switching tube 33 and the fourth switching tube 34 are both turned off, and the fifth switching tube 37 and the sixth switching tube 38 are turned on, which corresponds to the amplifying unit performing direct transmission processing on the input signal.
The following example provides a control principle of an amplifier under a mechanism that the delay parameter of the cascade amplification module 12 is configured to be adjusted by the second adjustment code.
As shown in fig. 13, the third switching tube 33 and the fourth switching tube 34 are both fixedly turned on, the resistances of the first resistor 35 and the second resistor 36 are adjustable, and the resistances can be within a larger range (e.g., R 1 、R 2 、R 3 、R 4 … …, etc.) are controllably adjusted. At this time, according to the delay parameter indicated by the current stage amplifying unit, the resistance gear of the first resistor 35/the second resistor 36 is flexibly adjusted, so that the output signal generates a preset delay time relative to the input signal, and meanwhile, the resistance of the third resistor 38 is correspondingly adjusted. That is, in fig. 11, there are only 2 shift positions (R max /R min ) The method comprises the steps of carrying out a first treatment on the surface of the In fig. 13, each resistor has more shift positions (R 1 /R 2 /R 3 /R 4 … …) to achieve more flexible resistance control.
As can be seen from the above, in the case that the signal sampling circuit 10 includes the parameter module, the control terminal of the third switching tube receives the first adjustment sub-signal, and the control terminal of the fourth switching tube receives the second adjustment sub-signal; the first resistor 35, the second resistor 36 and the third resistor 38 are all adjustable resistors, the first resistor 35 receives the third adjustment sub-signal, the second resistor 36 receives the fourth adjustment sub-signal, and the third resistor 38 receives the fifth adjustment sub-signal; the first adjustment sub-signal, the second adjustment sub-signal, the third adjustment sub-signal, the fourth adjustment sub-signal and the fifth adjustment sub-signal are all from the first adjustment code; or the first adjustment sub-signal, the second adjustment sub-signal, the third adjustment sub-signal, the fourth adjustment sub-signal and the fifth adjustment sub-signal are all from the second adjustment code.

It should be noted that the clock tree module 133 includes a plurality of clock trees, and each clock tree delays transmission of 1 second clock signal.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 14, the signal sampling circuit 10 further includes a replica analog module 152 and a detection module 155. Specifically, the replication analog module 152 is configured to receive the second clock signal, perform analog delay processing on the second clock signal, and generate an analog delay signal; and a detection module 155, coupled to the replica analog module, configured to perform phase deviation detection on the analog delay signal and the second clock signal, and generate an offset detection signal.
It should be noted that the replica analog module 152 has the same structure as the clock tree module 133 described above, and the delay parameter of the replica analog module 152 is the same as the delay parameter of the clock tree module 133, and the analog delay signal is used to simulate the waveform of the sampling clock signal.
