All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the directions or positional relationships indicated by the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", etc. are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, are merely for convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the devices or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, be configured and operated in a specific orientation, and thus should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless explicitly specified and limited otherwise, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" are to be construed broadly, and may be either fixedly connected, detachably connected, or integrally connected, for example; can be mechanically or electrically connected; the two components can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or can be communicated inside the two components, or can be connected wirelessly or in a wired way. The specific meaning of the above terms in the present invention will be understood in specific cases by those of ordinary skill in the art.
In addition, the technical features of the different embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not collide with each other.
Referring to fig. 1, a schematic diagram of a chopper operational amplifier in some technologies is shown, and referring to fig. 2, a schematic diagram of a conventional modulation and demodulation circuit commonly used in chopper operational amplifiers in some technologies is shown.
In some technologies, an independent modulation and demodulation mode is mainly adopted to modulate an offset voltage to a high-frequency end, then the offset voltage is filtered through low-pass filtering, and a data signal is demodulated back to a baseband after being modulated, so that the influence of the offset voltage is eliminated. However, the chopping technique adopts an independent modulation/demodulation circuit to perform modulation and demodulation at the input/output node of high resistance, so that the output voltage swing of the operational amplifier is reduced.
Take fig. 1 and fig. 2 as an example. In some chopper operational amplifiers, an independent demodulation circuit is added to the output end, and a mos switch tube in the demodulation circuit affects the single-ended output swing of the chopper operational amplifier. Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the single-ended output voltage swing is: vdd- (vds_q19+vds_q21+vds_q23+vds_q25+vds_q17), the output gain is: gm [ (ro 19+ ro 21)/(ro 23+ ro25+ rds 17) ], wherein the mos transistors Q19, Q17 influence the output voltage and the output gain of the chopper operational amplifier, thereby reducing the output voltage swing of the operational amplifier.

At this time, the fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth switching devices Q9, Q10, Q13, and Q14 are turned on, and the first, second, third, and fourth switching devices Q7, Q8, Q11, and Q12 are turned off; at this time, the voltage (outp) is outputted through the second terminals of the fifth and seventh switching devices Q9 and Q13, and the second terminals of the sixth and eighth switching devices Q10 and Q14.
In this embodiment, the voltage switching at the control terminal and the switching at the output terminal are adopted, so that the introduction of an additional demodulation circuit can be avoided. The single ended output voltage swing as shown in fig. 3 is: vdd- (vds_q5+vds_q7+vds_q11+vds_q15); the output gain is gm (ro 5+ro 7)/(ro 11+ro 15). It can be seen that the chopped op-amp provided in this embodiment has an output gain that is more balanced than the output voltage swing of the chopped op-amp in some techniques by one Vds.
