Definitions
- the invention relates to an integrated circuit comprising an integrated reference current generation circuit connected via network connection pins to an external reference resistor network.
- an integrated circuit IC integrated on a chip comprises an integrated reference current generation circuit which is provided to generate a reference current for different circuits integrated on the chip.
- An on-chip reference current is created in conventional integrated circuits by means of an external resistor across which the reference circuit maintains a constant and well-defined reference voltage V ref . This can be accomplished by means of a differential amplifier which regulates the gate voltage of a MOSFET in a closed loop manner.
- the reference current I ref provided by the integrated reference current generation circuit connected to the external reference resistor can therefore be adjusted in a wide range of values by selecting the external resistor value R accordingly.
- the generated reference current can be used within the integrated circuit for different functionalities such as adjusting a frequency, output current or a delay time etc.
- the external resistor is partly damaged or broken with the consequence that the integrated circuit receives a reference current I ref generated by the integrated reference current generation circuit connected to the external reference resistor with a wrong current strength and operates outside specified parameter ranges. Moreover, a deviation of the generated reference current from a desired set reference current cannot be detected or diagnosed and no correction of the situation will be performed.
- Fig. 1 shows a conventional circuit which is used in a conventional integrated circuit to avoid the above-mentioned disadvantages, in particular a situation where a reference current with a wrong reference current value is generated because an external reference resistor has been damaged or a wire to the external reference resistor has been cut.
- the integrated circuit IC comprises the reference current generation circuit three times each circuit being connected to a corresponding external resistor R ref .
- the reference current generation circuits in the conventional integrated circuit IC as shown in Fig. 1 are connected to an arbiter circuit which monitors if any of the three reference currents is deviating more than a preset percentage from the other two reference currents. If the arbiter circuit detects that one of the reference currents I ref is deviating too far from the other two reference currents, it selects one of the unaffected two other reference currents and outputs an error flag indicating that an error in one of the reference current generation circuits has occurred.
- a disadvantage of the conventional integrated circuit IC shown in Fig. 1 is that three network connection pins have to be used to connect three external reference resistors R ref to the integrated circuit IC. Further, the space for providing pins connecting the integrated circuit IC to the external electronic circuitry is limited. Moreover, each network connection pin used for one of the integrated reference current generation circuits can not be used for other purposes so that the functionality of the integrated circuit IC is limited.
- US 2008/0073976 A1 relates to a method for increasing the availability and redundancy of an analogue current output.
- a first set of current sources is activated to generate an output current.
- a current source of this first set of current sources is cyclically checked for serviceability, and a resulting output current is generated in equal parts by other current sources of the first set of current sources. If an unserviceability of a checked current source is determined, the respective current source is disconnected.
- an object of the present invention to provide an integrated circuit having an integrated reference current generation circuit which provides a constant reference current even when one external resistor value deviates from a set value and which needs less connection pins for connecting external reference resistors to the integrated circuit.
- the integrated circuit according to the present invention provides an integrated reference circuit that detects any deviation of a resistor value and compensates this deviation such that the value of the generated reference current I ref remains unaffected and unchanged.

- the integrated control circuit 3 detects a change from a predetermined ratio between the first and second external current I 1 , I 2 it turns off consecutively the first external current I 1 and the second external current I 2 by controlling the fourth and fifth integrated switch SW4, SW5 and then compares the measured voltages at the first and second network connection pin 4-1, 4-2 of said integrated circuit IC 1 with expected voltages at the first and second network connection pin 4-1, 4-2 of said integrated circuit 1 to identify a failing resistor of the external reference resistor network 5.

- the reference current I ref generated by the integrated reference current generation circuit 2 is maintained constant and decreases by a predetermined percentage. Accordingly, in this scenario or situation the circuit according to the present invention operates such that a predetermined percentage of the reference current I ref is still generated although a wire has been cut. In a possible embodiment if a wire cut is detected this causes a decrease of the reference current I ref of less than 19%.
- the control circuit 3 generates in case of a malfunction an error signal (ERROR) indicating that a malfunction of the external reference resistor network 5 has occurred.
- This error signal can also indicate what type of malfunction has occurred, i.e. it can indicate whether there is a faulty resistor 6 in the reference resistor network 5 or a cut wire.

- Fig. 4 shows a possible printed circuit board PCB design which can be used for connecting an integrated circuit 1 according to the present invention with an external reference resistor network 5.
- the separation of wires for all three resistors 6-1, 6-2, 6-3 reduces the risk of a wire cut.
- a wire cut error can only occur as a soldering error or a IC pin to the PCB. This is diagnosed and has an effect in reducing less than 19% of the reference current I ref generated by the reference current generation circuit 2. Further, a loss of ground wire is prevented by double ground wires via ground connection of the integrated circuit 1.
- the integrated circuit 1 according to the present invention can be used in automotive applications.
- the integrated circuit IC 1 is compliant with ISO 26262 being an automotive safety standard.
