In the invention, the on-off of the first switch S1, the second switch S2, the third switch S3, the fourth switch S4, the fifth switch S5, the sixth switch S6, the seventh switch S7 and the eighth switch S8 are controlled by control signals F1 and F2 output by a clock generation module, the third switch S3, the fourth switch S4, the fifth switch S5 and the sixth switch S6 are controlled by the control signal F1, and the first switch S1, the second switch S2, the seventh switch S7 and the eighth switch S8 are controlled by the control signal F2. The control signals F1 and F2 are square wave signals of the same frequency and different phases, and have one turn-on and one turn-off control in one control period, and the switch controlled by the control signal F1 is not turned on at the same time as the switch controlled by the control signal F2.
For convenience of description, a stage in which the switches S3, S4, S5, S6 controlled by the control signal F1 are turned on and the switches S1, S2, S7, S8 controlled by the control signal F2 are turned off is referred to as an F1 stage, and a stage in which the switches S3, S4, S5, S6 controlled by the control signal F1 are turned off and the switches S1, S2, S7, S8 controlled by the control signal F2 are turned on is referred to as an F2 stage. In the F1 stage, the left plates of the second capacitor C2 and the third capacitor C3 are reset to VOUT voltage, the voltage difference between the right plates of the second capacitor C2 and the third capacitor C3 is the output differential mode voltage VC of the first operational amplifier A1, and if the input offset voltage of the first operational amplifier A1 is Vos1 and the gain is a, (-vc+vos1) ×a=vc, the simplification is obtained: vc=vos1/(1+a), the differential mode voltage VC is stored in the form of charges on the right plates of the second capacitor C2 and the third capacitor C3; in the F2 stage, the input differential signal VOUT-VA reaches the left plates of the second capacitor C2 and the third capacitor C3 through the second resistor R2, the third resistor R3, the first switch S1, and the second switch S2, and since the right plates of the second capacitor C2 and the third capacitor C3 store the differential mode voltage VC for offset correction in the F1 stage, the differential output voltage of the first operational amplifier A1 can be calculated as:
VOUT,A1 = (VOUT - VA + Vos1 -VC)*A
substituting the differential mode voltage VC of the F1 stage to obtain:
VOUT,A1 = [VOUT - VA + Vos1/(1+A)]*A
thus, the equivalent input offset voltage is:
Vos,eff = Vos1/(1+A)
since the gain of the first operational amplifier A1 is large, the input offset voltage Vos1 is reduced to a small level, which is almost negligible. The differential output voltage VOUT of the first operational amplifier A1, the upper plates of the fifth capacitor C5 and the sixth capacitor C6 exist in the form of charges, and are used for continuously providing input for the second transconductance amplifier G2 during the stage F1; and the fourth capacitor C4 is a filter capacitor.
The input offset voltage of the first operational amplifier A1 can be basically eliminated through the switch switching schemes of the first switch S1, the second switch S2, the third switch S3, the fourth switch S4, the fifth switch S5, the sixth switch S6, the seventh switch S7 and the eighth switch S8, and meanwhile, the self-zeroing stable operational amplifier auxiliary loop amplifies the same input signal VOUT-VA as the first transconductance amplifier G1, so that the input signal VOUT-VA is amplified by the first transconductance amplifier G1 and the self-zeroing stable operational amplifier auxiliary loop simultaneously; the input offset voltage of the first transconductance amplifier G1 is amplified only by the first transconductance amplifier G1, and the self-zeroing stable operational amplifier auxiliary loop can reduce the input offset voltage of the first transconductance amplifier G1 to the valueWherein, the method comprises the steps of, wherein,is the transconductance of the first transconductance amplifier G1, A is the gain of the first operational amplifier A1, +.>Is the transconductance of the second transconductance amplifier G2,/>The input offset voltage of the first transconductance amplifier G1 is not added when the self-zeroing stable operational amplifier loop is not added, so that the input offset voltage is reduced by the addition of the self-zeroing stable operational amplifier auxiliary loop>Multiple times.

The detection current ISEN is converted into a detection voltage VSEN through a fourth resistor R4, when the output current IOUT of the power tube M1 is increased, the detection current ISEN and the detection voltage VSEN are increased simultaneously, and when the VSEN is greater than VREF, the second operational amplifier A2 increases the output control signal VC, so that the output current IOUT of the power tube M1 is reduced.
As shown in fig. 4, the reference voltage generating module in the present invention includes: the inverting input end of the third operational amplifier A3 receives the band gap reference voltage VBG, the non-inverting input end of the third operational amplifier A3 is respectively connected with one end of the fifth resistor R5 and the drain electrode of the second switching tube M4, the other end of the fifth resistor R5 is respectively connected with the input end of the current limiting control module and one end of the sixth resistor R6, the sixth resistor R6 is used for converting received reference current into reference voltage VREF, and the other end of the sixth resistor R6 is grounded; the source of the second switching tube M4 is connected to the power voltage VIN, and the other end of the fifth resistor R5 is connected to the inverting input terminal of the second operational amplifier A2. In the reference voltage generating module, the third operational amplifier A3, the second switching tube M4, the fifth resistor R5, and the sixth resistor R6 form a negative feedback circuit, and the non-inverting input terminal voltage VFB and the inverting input terminal voltage VBG of the third operational amplifier A3 are equal when stable, so that the reference current iref=vbg/(r5+r6) flowing through the resistor R5 and the resistor R6, and the output reference voltage vref=vbg×r6/(r5+r6).
In one embodiment of the present invention, the reference voltage VREF is further adjusted by adjusting the resistance value of the fifth resistor R5 or the resistance value of the sixth resistor R6.
The working principle of the PVT insensitive current limiting protection circuit is as follows:
the input offset voltage of the first operational amplifier A1 can be eliminated through the switch switching schemes of the first switch S1, the second switch S2, the third switch S3, the fourth switch S4, the fifth switch S5, the sixth switch S6, the seventh switch S7 and the eighth switch S8, and meanwhile, the self-zeroing stable operational amplifier auxiliary loop amplifies the same input signal VOUT-VA as the first transconductance amplifier G1, so that the input signal VOUT-VA is amplified by the first transconductance amplifier G1 and the self-zeroing stable operational amplifier auxiliary loop simultaneously; the input offset voltage of the first transconductance amplifier G1 is amplified only by the first transconductance amplifier G1, thereby obtaining that the input offset voltage of the first transconductance amplifier G1 is reducedThe input offset voltage close to 0 is multiplied and insensitive to PVT, so that the accurate clamping of the drain end of the power tube M1 and the drain end of the sampling tube M2 is realized, and the high-precision detection current is obtained:
ISEN = IOUT/R4
the detection current ISEN flows through the fourth resistor R4 through the first switching tube M3, and a detection voltage VSEN is generated at one end of the fourth resistor R4; the non-inverting input terminal of the second operational amplifier A2 receives the detection voltage VSEN, and the inverting input terminal receives the reference voltage VREF; when the detection current ISEN is smaller, the detection voltage VSEN is smaller than the reference voltage VREF, and at this time, the second operational amplifier A2 does not adjust the control signal VC; when the detection current ISEN increases to a value that is greater than the reference voltage VREF, the second operational amplifier A2 adjusts the control signal VC, pulls the control signal VC high, and reduces the detection current ISEN and the output current IOUT, at this time, the second operational amplifier A2 works in a negative feedback circuit, the detection voltage VSEN and the reference voltage VREF are equal, and VREF=ISEN×R0; the current limiting control module forms a negative feedback circuit, and vbg=vfb, and the fifth resistor R5 and the sixth resistor R6 form a voltage dividing network, so that the following can be obtained: vref=r6×vbg/(r6+r5), and it can be seen from the above that the output current iout=k×r6×vbg/[ r4× (r5+r6) ], where K is the ratio of the width to length ratio of the power tube M1 and the sampling tube M2, VBG is the bandgap reference voltage, it can be designed into a zero temperature coefficient, R4 does not introduce a temperature coefficient, and a high-precision current limiting value insensitive to PVT can be obtained by the size of the fourth resistor R4.
The PVT insensitive current limiting protection circuit adopts the operational amplifier negative feedback circuit and the self-zeroing stable operational amplifier auxiliary loop, so that the problem that the input offset voltage of the clamping operational amplifier changes along with the process, the power supply voltage and the temperature is solved, and the high-precision detection current is obtained.
