Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a gate driving circuit, and more particularly to a gate driving circuit capable of clamping an output voltage level. [Prior Art] If the gate drive circuit outputs a drive signal with a high level, the interlayer oxide of the field effect transistor will collapse. Therefore, the design of the interpole drive circuit needs to consider the protection of the gate oxide layer of the driven component to avoid collapse. The prior art uses an output voltage clamp circuit to achieve the protection function, for example, a general application of a Zener diode ( Zener Diode) or a Linear Regulator provides the required clamping voltage level and the required current. The first figure is a schematic diagram of a conventional circuit for applying voltage-clamping by driving a P-type power transistor 13 by a Zener diode 12. The circuit 10 limits the difference between the output voltage level VOUT and the power supply voltage VDD to the breakdown voltage of the Zener diode 12 to achieve the effect of output voltage clamping; however, since the Zener diode 12 operates in a collapse region, It will have a DC current when the voltage is clamped to a steady state, but has a higher power consumption. The second figure is a circuit diagram of a conventional application of a linear regulator 22 for driving a P-type power transistor 24 to achieve voltage clamping. The circuit 20 utilizes negative feedback such that the difference between the output voltage level VOUT and the power supply voltage VDD is locked at a preset voltage level to achieve an output voltage clamping effect; however, the linear regulator 22 is required to provide a power supply. The voltage is preset to the voltage drop, so the output DC current needs to be fixed. In addition, the linear regulator 22 also needs to provide the high-speed transient current required for the potential conversion of the output gate signal 200905436, so the conventional method requires a large area of voltage regulation. Capacitor 23 stabilizes the output voltage level VOUT, which results in significant expense of wafer area and cost. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide an active voltage clamping gate driving circuit that can realize output voltage clamping and low power consumption S by simple output detection feedback. To achieve the above object, the present invention provides an active voltage clamp gate drive circuit. The active voltage clamping gate driving circuit comprises a differential comparison circuit and a gate driving circuit. The difference comparison circuit receives a reference reference voltage and an output gate control signal, and outputs at least one voltage comparison signal accordingly. The gate driving circuit receives a data input signal and the voltage comparison signal, and outputs at least one gate driving signal. Wherein, when the difference between the output gate control signal and the reference reference voltage level is substantially equal to or greater than a predetermined value, the voltage comparison signal controls the gate driving circuit to be turned off, thereby causing the output gate control signal The level is clamped to the preset voltage level. The present invention also provides another active voltage clamping gate drive circuit. The active voltage clamping gate driving circuit comprises a difference comparison circuit and a gate driving circuit. The difference comparison circuit receives a reference reference voltage, a predetermined voltage level, and an output gate control signal, and outputs at least one voltage comparison signal accordingly. The gate driving circuit receives a data input signal, and the voltage comparison signal, and outputs at least one gate driving 200905436 signal. Wherein, when the output gate control signal is equal to: the C (same or smaller) is equivalent to the C: the secret comparison signal controls the gate drive circuit to be turned off, 'the pole control 彳 § level is clamped to the preset voltage level quasi.

The spirit of the present invention is that the (4) pole drive signal causes the gate drive signal to reach a state when the drive state is driven. When the gate drive signal reaches the output level of -駄, the level is turned off. The circuit 'has the advantage that the gate drive signal is boxed at the predetermined output when the predetermined output is driven without the conventional technique of clamping. & also achieves the second diagram of the active voltage clamp gate drive circuit of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the active voltage clamping gate driving circuit forcing the gate driving circuit 31 provides the 依据 according to the data input signal vin, and drives the rear driven component 33 with the driving signal VOUT'. The reference voltage level applied by the driving component 33 is the reference reference power, and the latter stage is simultaneously generated by a difference comparison circuit 32 according to a reference reference power and the wheel gate driving signal νουτ to generate the gate driving circuit 3l Vi> The signal vCTL; a, the difference comparison circuit 32 is composed of a differentially amplified clamp 2-bit comparison circuit 322; the differential amplifier circuit 321 321 321 reference voltage VP0T and the output gate drive signal ν 〇υ τ 1 1 1 01 01 The different signal VD is further compared with the preset reference level VREF via the level comparison circuit 322 to generate the control signal VCTL of the alarm circuit 3 i. When the difference between the difference M VD and the preset reference level VREF reaches a fixed value, that is, when the voltage difference between the reference reference voltage VP0T and the turn-off gate drive signal ν〇υτ reaches the preset reference level VREF, the level The comparison circuit cuts a control signal VCTL to turn off the gate driving circuit 31. At this time, the gate driving circuit 31 maintains the level of the gate driving signal ν〇υτ due to the shutdown, so that the clamped output gate voltage signal VOUT voltage level is reached.

As described above, when the data input transmission (4) VCTL is turned to logic low 41 ± m is a logic high state, the transistor 41 is turned off, and the signal is controlled at this time. The transistor 42 is also in an off state, and when the hole surface is in a low state, it is allowed to perform a charge and discharge operation. In this way, the gate parasitic electric power VOUT of the dimension element can be avoided at a predetermined driving level, and the gate driving signal can also be reduced. ## % > The drive element 33 is not collapsed, and the money is produced. The power brother diagram shows a schematic circuit diagram based on the data input signal signal VOUT and used to drive the positive output gate drive of the p-type power transistor. The transistors 510, 511, 200905436 512, 513, 514 constitute the front stage drive circuit 51, wherein the transistors 510, 512, 513 are the main drive stages and the transistors 511, 514 are the control stages. The transistors 521, 522 constitute a rear stage drive circuit 52. The transistor 521 receives the drive signal DRVP generated by the pre-drive circuit 51, and the transistor 522 receives the drive signal DRVN generated by the pre-drive circuit 51. The transistors 521, 522 of the subsequent stage drive circuit 52 collectively generate an output gate drive signal VOUT based on the drive signal DRVP and the drive signal DRVN. When the data input signal VIN is in a logic high state, the gate drive signal VOUT is turned to a logic high state to turn off the driven component. At this time, when the control signal VCTL is in a logic low state representing "non-off", the gate driving circuit 31 is normally operated. At this time, the driving signals DRVP and DRVN of the preceding stage driving circuit 51 are directly controlled by the data input signal VIN to drive the subsequent stage driving circuit 52, so that the output gate driving signal νουτ is outputted in the forward direction according to the data input signal VIN. When the data input signal VIN is in a logic low state, the gate drive signal VOUT of the forward output logic low state causes the driven component to be in an on state. When the inter-level drive signal VOUT is below a predetermined range, the difference comparison circuit 32 will output a control signal VCTL representative of the "off" logic high state. The control signal VCTL is in a logic high state. Therefore, the driving signal DRVN of the pre-stage driving circuit 51 is fixed to output a logic low state due to the conduction of the battery block 511, and the transistor 522 of the subsequent stage driving circuit 52 is in a wearing state. The stage drive circuit 51 drive signal DRVP is directly controlled by the data input signal VIN because the transistor 5丨4 is in an off state. At this time, the data input signal VIN is in a logic low state, and the driving signal DRVP is in a logic high state, so that the rear stage driving circuit 52 is also "off". Since the transistors 521 ' 200905436 522 of the subsequent stage drive circuit 52 are both turned off, the charge and discharge operation of the gate parasitic capacitance of the driven element is stopped. Thus, the gate drive signal VOUT can be maintained (i.e., clamped) at a predetermined drive level. Of course, except that the P-type power transistor will collapse due to the gate drive signal VOUT being too low, the N-type power transistor will also collapse due to the gate drive signal VOUT being too high. The following embodiment of the gate driving circuit is used to drive the N-type power transistor, and the voltage level clamping function of the gate driving signal VOUT can also be achieved by the control of the control signal VCTL. f' Fig. 6 is a view showing a third embodiment of the gate driving circuit 31 of the third figure, which outputs the gate driving signal VOUT in reverse according to the data input signal VIN and is used to drive the N-type power transistor. The transistors 60, 61 constitute a main driving stage, and the gate driving signal VOUT is inverted according to the data input signal VIN. The transistor 62 forms a control stage for logically multiplying the gate driving circuit 31 according to the control signal VCTL (Logic AND ). When the data input signal VIN is in a logic high state, the transistor 60 is in an on state and a transistor (61 is an off state), so the gate driving signal VOUT is in a logic low state to turn off the driven component. There is no crash, so the control signal VCTL is a logic low state representing "non-off", and the gate driving circuit 31 operates normally. When the data input signal VIN is in a logic low state, the transistor 61 is in an on state, and the transistor 60 is in a state of In the off state, the gate drive signal VOUT transitions to a logic high state to cause the driven component to begin to conduct. When the gate drive signal VOUT rises above a predetermined level, the control signal VCTL transitions to a logic high state representing "off". The transistor 62 is turned off to turn off the gate driving circuit 31. Thus, the charging of the gate of the driven element is stopped and the charging function is performed to achieve the clamping function. The seventh figure shows the gate of the third figure. A schematic diagram of the fourth embodiment of the driving circuit 31, which outputs a gate driving signal VOUT according to the data input signal VIN and drives the N-type power transistor. The transistors 710 and 711 712, 713, and 714 constitute a front stage driving circuit 71, wherein the transistors 710, 712, and 714 are main driving stages, and the transistors 71 and 713 are control stages. The transistors 721 and 72 2 constitute a rear stage driving circuit 7 2 , and the electric The crystal 7 21 receives the drive signal DRVP of the front stage drive circuit 71, and the transistor 722 receives the drive signal DRVN of the front stage drive circuit 71 to jointly generate the output gate drive signal VOUT. When the control signal VCTL is logic high, the gate drive The circuit 31 operates normally, and the driving signals DRVP and DRVN of the pre-stage driving circuit 71 are directly controlled by the data input signal VIN for driving the subsequent-stage driving circuit 72, so that the output gate driving signal VOUT is forwardly output according to the data input signal VIN. When the signal VCTL is in a logic low state, the driving signal DRVP of the pre-stage driving circuit 71 is fixed to the output logic high state, so that the transistor 721 of the subsequent stage driving circuit 72 is turned off, and the driving signal DRVN of the pre-stage driving circuit 71 is directly subjected to the data input signal. The VIN control is in a logic low state, and the rear stage driving circuit 72 transistor 722 is also in an off state, and stops charging the circuit VSS to the circuit driven element of the subsequent stage. Thus, the gate driving signal VOUT can be maintained (ie, clamped) at a predetermined driving level. Next, the operation of the difference comparison circuit will be described by way of an embodiment. The eighth figure shows the difference comparison circuit 32 of the third figure.

The transistor 81 is driven according to the output gate: "νουτ constitutes an output current source. When the output gate drive signal v<^ is greater than the reference voltage level VREF, the output current source T is smaller than the current source IREF, so that the analog signal The hidden DET is smaller than the analog signal NOR, at which time the voltage comparator 8Q outputs the control signal Μ: is a logic high state. When the output gate drive signal ν 〇υ τ is less than the reference voltage level, the output current source IOUT is greater than the table.
