1.2 receiving circuit
Fig. 2 shows the formation summary of receiving circuit in the present embodiment.Carry with receiving circuit 28, OUT transmission receiving circuit 42 and clock signal conveys receiving circuit 44 as IN conveying receiving circuit 26, the gating signal of Fig. 1, can adopt the receiving circuit of Fig. 2.
Transtation mission circuit 200 is connected with receiving circuit 100 by the holding wire 250 as transmission medium.Transtation mission circuit 200 comprises current driving circuit 210.Current driving circuit 210 based on send the corresponding input voltage vin of data, current drive signal line 250.Transmit single-ended signals by transtation mission circuit 200 to holding wire 250.OUT transmission transtation mission circuit 22, clock signal transmission as Fig. 1 are transmitted with transtation mission circuit 48 with transtation mission circuit 46 and gating signal with transtation mission circuit 24, IN transmission, can adopt transtation mission circuit 200.
Receiving circuit 100 is connected with holding wire 250 by this transtation mission circuit 200 current drives.Receiving circuit 100 comprises power circuit 140, current-to-voltage converting circuit 120 and bias voltage generating circuit 130.Power circuit 140 can comprise differential amplifier circuit 110.At this moment, the differential voltage of the voltage of differential amplifier circuit 110 amplifying signal lines 250 and bias voltage Vb.Herein, reflection for the transmission signals that prevents holding wire 250, the power circuit 140 of receiving circuit 100 is connected on the holding wire 250 by the impedance matching resistance R, this impedance matching resistance R has the impedance identical with the characteristic impedance of holding wire 250, can be arranged on for example outside of receiving circuit 100.
Power circuit 140 is adjusted the electric current of the holding wire 250 of flowing through based on from the bias voltage Vb of bias voltage generating circuit 130 and the voltage of the node NDX that is connected with holding wire 250.More particularly, power circuit 140 is adjusted the electric current of holding wire 250 according to the voltage of node NDX and the difference between the bias voltage Vb.
Current-to-voltage converting circuit 120 will be driven by the current driving circuit 210 of transtation mission circuit 200, and the current conversion of the holding wire 250 of flowing through is a voltage.Current-to-voltage converting circuit 120 is output as the output voltage V out corresponding with reception result.
Bias voltage generating circuit 130 produces bias voltage Vb.More particularly, bias voltage generating circuit 130 output offset voltage Vb, the characteristic of this bias voltage Vb and power circuit 140 (as the characteristic (static characteristic) of the MOS transistor of the composed component of power circuit 140 (differential amplifier circuit etc.)) links and is adjusted.This bias voltage generating circuit 130 can produce the adjustable bias voltage of its current potential.
Like this, in the present embodiment, the bias voltage that is fixed based on its current potential and the voltage of holding wire 250 can not carry out unwanted electric current adjustment.Therefore, for example since the current driving ability of the MOS transistor of the formation power circuit 140 that the operation change when making etc. cause during with design not simultaneously, bias voltage generating circuit 130 can the produce adjusted bias voltage Vb of current potential.At this moment, the transmission medium current potential of holding wire 250 also changes, even but power circuit 140 also can detection signal under lower transmission medium current potential.When establishing the wide W of being of transistorized raceway groove, when raceway groove length was L, this transistorized current driving ability can be expressed as W/L.
The key diagram of the action power voltage of Fig. 3 (A) and Fig. 3 (B) expression receiving circuit.

Because in this transmission medium potential range VR, detect the signal that current potential changes, provide the bias voltage Vb of the manufacture deviation of having considered this composed component to differential amplifier circuit.Fig. 3 (A) is cut apart the voltage between hot side supply voltage VDD and the low potential side supply voltage VEE by two permanent circuits, thereby generates bias voltage circuit diagram Vb, as a comparative example.As transmission medium potential range VR during by hot side border current potential VRu and low potential side border current potential VRd regulation, bias voltage Vb only is set to the voltage than the high nargin current potential of hot side border current potential VRu Vm.
Like this, even when causing that owing to the variation of manufacturing process etc. the current driving ability that constitutes the differential amplifier circuit MOS transistor reduces, also can detect the signal that in the transmission medium potential range VR of regulation, changes.
But, in above-mentioned action power voltage, needing nargin current potential Vm, the nargin between the hot side supply voltage VDD and bias voltage Vb reduces so for example often have, and differential amplifier circuit can not be kept situation at a high speed.Therefore, setting or fuse by register value open circuit etc., and bias voltage Vb can be set changeably.But the man-hour that need be used to set.
Relative therewith, according to present embodiment, even causing the current driving ability of the MOS transistor that constitutes power circuit 140, manufacturing process etc. change, but by the bias voltage Vb corresponding with this variation is provided, bigger nargin current potential Vm needn't be set, just can make power circuit 140 actions.Therefore, the high speed of the electric current adjustment of power circuit 140 can be kept, and the interior signal of transmission medium potential range VR of electronegative potential can be detected.
Like this, the receiving circuit of present embodiment can adopt various formations.
1.3 first configuration example
Fig. 4 illustrates the circuit diagram of first configuration example of the receiving circuit of Fig. 2.
In addition, in Fig. 4, with the corresponding expression of circuit diagram of the configuration example of the transtation mission circuit 200 of Fig. 2.And in Fig. 4, the part identical with Fig. 2 marked identical mark, and suitably omits explanation.
Transtation mission circuit 200 comprises MOS transistor (below, be called for short transistor) QS1, the QS2 of N type (broadly being second conductivity type).The drain electrode of transistor QS1, QS2 is connected with holding wire 250.Input voltage vin is cushioned by negative circuit INV1, INV2.The output voltage of negative circuit INV2 is provided to the grid of transistor QS1.The output voltage of negative circuit INV1 is provided to the grid of transistor QS2.
Be provided with at the source electrode of transistor QS1 and be used to current source CS1 that electric current I H is flowed.This current source CS1 can be made of N type MOS transistor, and the drain electrode of this N type MOS transistor is connected with the source electrode of transistor QS1, and low potential side supply voltage VEE is provided on its source electrode, and the voltage of regulation is provided on its grid.
The source electrode of transistor QS2 is provided with and is used to make the mobile current source CS2 less than the electric current I L of electric current I H.This current source CS2 can be made of N type MOS transistor, and the drain electrode of this N type MOS transistor is connected with the source electrode of transistor QS2, and low potential side supply voltage VEE is provided on its source electrode, and the voltage of regulation is provided on its grid.
Its result, when the input voltage vin of transtation mission circuit 200 is the hot side supply voltage corresponding with logic level " H ", transistor QS1 is in conducting state, and transistor QS2 is in cut-off state, can import electric current I H (current drive signal line 250) by holding wire 250.And the input voltage vin of transtation mission circuit 200 is when being the low potential side supply voltage corresponding with logic level " L ", transistor QS1 is in cut-off state, transistor QS2 is in conducting state, can import electric current I L (current drive signal line 250) by holding wire 250.
One end of impedance matching resistance R connects holding wire 250, and the other end of impedance matching resistance R is connected on the power circuit 140 of receiving circuit 100.The other end of more particularly, impedance matching resistance R is connected on the differential amplifier circuit 110 of power circuit 140.
The differential amplifier circuit 110 of power circuit 140 comprises formation differential right N type MOS transistor QR11, QR12 (first and second differential transistor).The source electrode of transistor QR11, QR12 interconnects, each transistor drain electric current and be fixed value.Voltage (in Fig. 4, the voltage of the other end of the source voltage of transistor QR1, impedance matching resistance R) grid controlled transistor QR11 based on holding wire 250.The drain voltage of output transistor QR11 is supplied with this output voltage as the output voltage of differential amplifier circuit 110 on the grid of transistor QR1.Based on bias voltage Vb grid controlled transistor QR12.
And power circuit 140 comprises N type MOS transistor QR1 (first electric current is adjusted transistor).Output voltage grid controlled transistor QR1 based on differential amplifier circuit 110.That is, on the grid of transistor QR1, supply with the output voltage of differential amplifier circuit 110, on source electrode, connect holding wire 250 (or other end of Interface Matching resistance R), based on the drain current of this output voltage oxide-semiconductor control transistors QR1.The voltage that makes the other end of Interface Matching resistance R is the voltage of holding wire 250.
By this transistor QR1 is set, can separation signal line 250 and the output node of output output voltage V out, thus reduce the capacity of the holding wire 250 that transtation mission circuit 200 drives.Therefore, can reduce the capacity that transtation mission circuit 200 should drive.And, can reduce the amplitude of the signal of holding wire 250, the fluctuation of detection signal at high speed.

And bias voltage generating circuit 130 produces the voltage corresponding with the drain current of transistor QR12 as bias voltage Vb.
That is, in receiving circuit 110, it is differential right that transistor QR11, QR12 (first and second differential transistor) constitute, and its each drain current is controlled.And when the grid of transistor QR11 (first differential transistor) was connected with node NDX, its drain electrode was connected with the grid of transistor QR1 (first electric current is adjusted transistor).On the grid of transistor QR12 (second differential transistor), provide bias voltage Vb.Transistor QR1 is connected with current-to-voltage converting circuit 120 with node NDX.Bias voltage generating circuit 130 produces bias voltage Vb according to the drain current of transistor QR11, QR12 at least one (first and second differential transistor).
Thus, can produce the current potential of bias voltage Vb according to the current driving ability of transistor QR12, also change so constitute the drain current of differential right transistor QR11, its result can make the drain voltage of transistor QR11 change.Therefore,, nargin current potential Vm need be set on bias voltage Vb, littler nargin current potential Vm maybe can be set for making differential amplifier circuit 110 high speed motion.
And bias voltage generating circuit 130 can comprise MOS transistor QR20 (the first bias voltage generation transistor), and the grid of this MOS transistor QR20 is connected with drain electrode, and conductivity type is identical with the conductivity type (N type) of transistor QR12 (second differential transistor).And as the drain current of transistor QR20, when the corresponding electric current of the drain current with transistor QR11 or transistor QR12 (first or second differential transistor) of flowing through, the grid voltage of transistor QR20 produces as bias voltage Vb.That is, transistor QR20 is formed on the identical substrate with transistor QR11, QR12.And, adjust the drain current of transistor QR20 according at least one the drain current of transistor QR11, QR12.
So, the manufacture deviation of transistor QR12 is identical with the manufacture deviation of transistor QR20, so the variation of the current driving ability of transistor QR12 can be identical with the variation of the current driving ability of transistor QR20.Its result can adjust the current potential of bias voltage Vb according to the current driving ability of transistor QR12.
And, more particularly, differential amplifier circuit 110 can further comprise generation as the drain current of transistor QR11, QR12 and the N type MOS transistor QR13 (second electric current is adjusted transistor) of electric current (adjustment).The reference voltage V a of regulation is provided on the grid of transistor QR13.And bias voltage generating circuit 130 may further include N type MOS transistor QR21 (the second bias voltage generation transistor), and transistor QR20 is provided on the grid of this N type MOS transistor QR21 the grid voltage of (the first bias voltage generation transistor).And differential amplifier circuit 110 comprises current mirroring circuit CM1.Current mirroring circuit CM1 comprises P type MOS transistor QCM1, QCM2, and the grid of transistor QCM1, QCM2 interconnects.The drain electrode of transistor QCM1 is connected with the drain electrode of transistor QR11.The drain electrode of transistor QCM2 is connected with the grid of transistor QCM2 and the drain electrode of transistor QR12.
And, when the current driving ability that the current driving ability that is made as ID, transistor QR20 (the first bias voltage generation transistor) at the current driving ability current driving ability of transistor QR11, the QR12 that will be set up in parallel (first and second differential transistor) and that be made as DD, transistor QR13 (second electric current is adjusted transistor) is made as BD1, transistor QR21 (the second bias voltage generation transistor) was made as BD2, it is identical with BD1/BD2 that DD/ID preferably is set.
Like this, can be corresponding according to the variation of the current driving ability of the manufacture deviation of transistor QR11, the QR12 of differential amplifier circuit 110, QR13 with variation according to the current driving ability of the manufacture deviation of transistorized QR20, the QR21 of bias voltage generating circuit 130.Therefore, more exactly, can adjust the current potential of bias voltage Vb according to the current driving ability of transistor QR12.
In addition, in bias voltage generating circuit 130, will on grid, supply with electric current that reference voltage V a produced as the N type MOS transistor QR30 of grid voltage (the 3rd electric current is adjusted transistor) is generated as transistor QR20, QR21 through current mirroring circuit CM2 drain current.That is, by the electric current proportional electric current of transistor QR30 generation with the transistor QR13 generation of differential amplifier circuit 110.That is, on the grid of transistor QR30, provide the voltage identical, make the proportional electric current of drain current of transistor QR30 generation and transistor QR20 with the grid voltage of transistor QR13.At this, the drain current of transistor QR20 (the first bias voltage generation transistor) can be C (C the is an arithmetic number) electric current doubly of the drain current of transistor QR30.Even like this, also can adjust bias voltage Vb according to the current driving ability of transistor QR12.
Fig. 5 illustrates the sequential chart of action example of the receiving circuit 100 of Fig. 4.
