Description

積體電路 Integrated circuit

本發明是有關於一種積體電路,且特別是有關於一種能夠防止訊號電壓倒灌至系統電壓軌線之積體電路。 The present invention relates to an integrated circuit, and more particularly to an integrated circuit capable of preventing signal voltage from being poured to a system voltage rail.

隨著科技進步,積體電路製程技術也隨之不斷精進。如熟悉積體電路技術者所知,各種電子電路可集積/成形於晶片上。為了要使晶片能向外界其他電路/晶片進行通訊(例如交換資料)的電壓源(例如偏壓電源),晶片上會設有銲墊(pad)。 With the advancement of technology, the integrated circuit process technology has also continued to improve. As is known to those skilled in the art of integrated circuits, various electronic circuits can be integrated/formed onto the wafer. In order to enable the wafer to communicate (e.g., bias the power) to other circuits/chips externally, a pad is placed on the wafer.

舉例來說,圖1是說明具有多個積體電路的電子系統方塊示意圖。積體電路50包括核心電路51、終端阻抗元件53與銲墊Tx0。核心電路51的通信端可以經由銲墊Tx0輸出資料訊號至通信通道10。終端阻抗元件53的第一端與第二端分別耦接至系統電壓軌線VCC與銲墊Tx0。積體電路50可以利用終端阻抗元件53對通信通道10的傳送端進行阻抗匹配。積體電路100包括終端阻抗元件105、核心電路110與銲墊Rx0。核心電路110的通信端可以經由銲墊Rx0而從通信通道10接收資料訊號。終端阻抗元件 105的第一端與第二端分別耦接至系統電壓軌線TVCC與銲墊Rx0。積體電路100可以利用終端阻抗元件105對通信通道10的接收端進行阻抗匹配。 For example, Figure 1 is a block diagram illustrating an electronic system having a plurality of integrated circuits. The integrated circuit 50 includes a core circuit 51, a termination impedance element 53, and a pad Tx0. The communication end of the core circuit 51 can output a data signal to the communication channel 10 via the pad Tx0. The first end and the second end of the terminal impedance element 53 are respectively coupled to the system voltage rail VCC and the pad Tx0. The integrated circuit 50 can perform impedance matching on the transmitting end of the communication channel 10 by the terminal impedance element 53. The integrated circuit 100 includes a termination impedance element 105, a core circuit 110, and a pad Rx0. The communication terminal of the core circuit 110 can receive the data signal from the communication channel 10 via the pad Rx0. Terminal impedance component The first end and the second end of the 105 are respectively coupled to the system voltage rail TVCC and the pad Rx0. The integrated circuit 100 can perform impedance matching on the receiving end of the communication channel 10 by the terminal impedance element 105.

圖2是說明圖1所示積體電路100發生訊號電壓倒灌至系統電壓軌線的倒灌路徑示意圖。請參照圖2,核心電路110的通信端與終端阻抗元件105的第一端皆耦接至銲墊Rx0。開關P1的第一端與第二端分別耦接至系統電壓軌線TVCC與終端阻抗元件105的第二端。在正常操作模式下,基於開關P1的導通狀態,終端阻抗元件105可以選擇性地提供電阻值至銲墊Rx0。因此,積體電路100可以利用終端阻抗元件105對通信通道10的接收端進行阻抗匹配。 FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating a backflow path in which the integrated circuit 100 of FIG. 1 generates a signal voltage to the system voltage rail. Referring to FIG. 2, the communication end of the core circuit 110 and the first end of the termination impedance element 105 are coupled to the pad Rx0. The first end and the second end of the switch P1 are respectively coupled to the system voltage rail TVCC and the second end of the terminal impedance element 105. In the normal mode of operation, based on the conductive state of switch P1, termination impedance element 105 can selectively provide a resistance value to pad Rx0. Therefore, the integrated circuit 100 can perform impedance matching on the receiving end of the communication channel 10 by the terminal impedance element 105.

當積體電路100進入電源關斷模式(省電模式)時,電壓源(未繪示)會停止供電至積體電路100的系統電壓軌線TVCC,以節省核心電路110的功耗。然而在積體電路100進入電源關斷模式期間,積體電路50可能會利用通信通道10傳送通信號給其他積體電路(未繪示),使得積體電路100的銲墊Rx0出現電壓信號。在積體電路100進入電源關斷模式期間,開關P1的控制訊號ZB可能是不確定狀態(例如為浮動的(floating)狀態)或是接地狀態,使得開關P1無法完全關斷(在此假設開關P1為P型金屬氧化半導體電晶體)。因此,當銲墊Rx0的電壓準位出現高準位(例如是3.3V)的電壓信號時,此電壓信號會經由終端阻抗元件105與開關P1倒灌至系統電壓軌線TVCC。所述電流倒灌路徑為 如圖2中的箭頭所示。倒灌至系統電壓軌線TVCC的電壓信號可能會導致核心電路110發生誤動作。 When the integrated circuit 100 enters the power-off mode (power saving mode), the voltage source (not shown) stops supplying power to the system voltage rail TVCC of the integrated circuit 100 to save power consumption of the core circuit 110. However, during the power-off mode of the integrated circuit 100, the integrated circuit 50 may transmit a signal to the other integrated circuits (not shown) by using the communication channel 10, so that the pad Rx0 of the integrated circuit 100 exhibits a voltage signal. During the power-off mode of the integrated circuit 100, the control signal ZB of the switch P1 may be in an indeterminate state (for example, a floating state) or a grounded state, so that the switch P1 cannot be completely turned off (the switch is assumed here) P1 is a P-type metal oxide semiconductor transistor). Therefore, when a voltage signal of a high level (for example, 3.3V) appears at the voltage level of the pad Rx0, the voltage signal is inverted to the system voltage rail TVCC via the terminal impedance element 105 and the switch P1. The current backflow path is As indicated by the arrows in Figure 2. Reversing the voltage signal to the system voltage rail TVCC may cause the core circuit 110 to malfunction.

圖3是說明圖1所示積體電路100發生訊號電壓倒灌至系統電壓軌線的另一倒灌路徑示意圖。在此假設開關P1為P型金屬氧化半導體(P-channel Metal Oxide Semiconductor,PMOS)電晶體,因此開關P1的第二端(汲極)與基體(body或bulk)之間的接面形成一個寄生二極體D。開關P1的基體被耦接至系統電壓軌線TVCC。在積體電路100進入電源關斷模式期間,當銲墊Rx0的電壓準位出現高準位(例如是3.3V)的電壓信號時,此電壓信號會經由終端阻抗元件105與開關P1的寄生二極體D倒灌至系統電壓軌線TVCC。所述倒灌路徑為如圖3中的箭頭所示。因此,上述電壓信號倒灌現象會造成系統電壓軌線TVCC的電壓被提高,致使核心電路110發生誤動作。 FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing another pouring path in which the integrated circuit 100 of FIG. 1 generates a signal voltage to the system voltage rail. It is assumed here that the switch P1 is a P-channel Metal Oxide Semiconductor (PMOS) transistor, so that the junction between the second end (drain) of the switch P1 and the body (bulk) forms a parasitic Diode D. The base of switch P1 is coupled to system voltage rail TVCC. During the power-off mode of the integrated circuit 100, when a voltage level of a high level (for example, 3.3V) occurs at the voltage level of the pad Rx0, the voltage signal passes through the terminal impedance element 105 and the parasitic two of the switch P1. The body D is inverted to the system voltage rail TVCC. The backflow path is as indicated by the arrow in FIG. Therefore, the above-mentioned voltage signal backflow phenomenon causes the voltage of the system voltage rail TVCC to be increased, causing the core circuit 110 to malfunction.

圖4是依照本發明的第一實施例的一種防止電源電流倒灌之積體電路的示意圖。請參照圖4,積體電路400包括銲墊Rx0、核心電路110以及一個或多個控制電路(例如圖4所示控制電路130_1、130_2、130_3)。核心電路的電源端耦接至系統電壓軌線TVCC。當積體電路400運行於正常操作模式時,系統電壓源(未繪示)可以經由系統電壓軌線TVCC供電至核心電路的電源端。當積體電路400進入電源關斷模式(省電模式)時,系統電壓源(未繪示)會停止供電至系統電壓軌線TVCC,以節省核心電路110的功耗。 4 is a schematic diagram of an integrated circuit for preventing power supply current from being poured in accordance with a first embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 4, the integrated circuit 400 includes a pad Rx0, a core circuit 110, and one or more control circuits (such as the control circuits 130_1, 130_2, 130_3 shown in FIG. 4). The power terminal of the core circuit is coupled to the system voltage rail TVCC. When the integrated circuit 400 is operating in the normal operating mode, a system voltage source (not shown) can be powered to the power supply terminal of the core circuit via the system voltage rail TVCC. When the integrated circuit 400 enters the power-off mode (power saving mode), the system voltage source (not shown) stops supplying power to the system voltage rail TVCC to save power consumption of the core circuit 110.

核心電路110的通信端耦接至銲墊Rx0。銲墊Rx0用以 傳輸通信訊號。舉例來說(但不限於此),核心電路110的通信端可以經由銲墊Rx0接收來自於外部通信通道的通信訊號,以及/或是將核心電路110的通信訊號經由銲墊Rx0輸出至外部通信通道。 The communication end of the core circuit 110 is coupled to the pad Rx0. Pad Rx0 is used Transmit communication signals. For example, but not limited to, the communication end of the core circuit 110 can receive the communication signal from the external communication channel via the pad Rx0, and/or output the communication signal of the core circuit 110 to the external communication via the pad Rx0. aisle.

在本實施例中,基於清晰與簡潔,圖4僅繪示控制電路130_1、130_2、130_3。然而在其他實施例中,控制電路的數量並不以此為限。以下將以控制電路130_1作為說明範例。其他控制電路130_2、130_3可以以參照控制電路130_1的相關說明而類推。 In the present embodiment, based on the clarity and simplicity, FIG. 4 only shows the control circuits 130_1, 130_2, 130_3. However, in other embodiments, the number of control circuits is not limited thereto. The control circuit 130_1 will be exemplified below. The other control circuits 130_2, 130_3 can be analogized with reference to the relevant description of the control circuit 130_1.

控制電路130_1包括終端阻抗元件R1、第一開關P1以及第二開關P2。終端阻抗元件R1的第一端耦接至銲墊Rx0。在此假設第一開關P1以及第二開關P2均為P型金屬氧化半導體(P-channel Metal Oxide Semiconductor,PMOS)電晶體,但在其他實施例中並不限於此。第一開關P1的第一端(例如源極端)耦接至系統電壓軌線TVCC。第一開關P1的第二端(例如汲極端)耦接至終端阻抗元件R1的第二端。第二開關P2的第一端(例如源極端)耦接於第一開關P1的控制端(例如閘極端)。第二開關P2的第二端(例如汲極端)耦接至終端阻抗元件R1的第二端。第二開關P2的控制端(例如閘極端)用以接收控制訊號ENB_BFP。控制訊號ENB_BFP可以是響應於系統電壓軌線TVCC電壓的任何信號。舉例來說(但不限於此),在一些實施例中,系統電壓軌線TVCC可以被耦接至第二開關P2的控制端,以提供控制訊號ENB_BFP。 The control circuit 130_1 includes a termination impedance element R1, a first switch P1, and a second switch P2. The first end of the terminal impedance element R1 is coupled to the pad Rx0. It is assumed here that the first switch P1 and the second switch P2 are both P-channel Metal Oxide Semiconductor (PMOS) transistors, but are not limited thereto in other embodiments. A first end (eg, a source terminal) of the first switch P1 is coupled to the system voltage rail TVCC. The second end of the first switch P1 (eg, the 汲 terminal) is coupled to the second end of the termination impedance element R1. The first end (eg, the source terminal) of the second switch P2 is coupled to the control end (eg, the gate terminal) of the first switch P1. The second end of the second switch P2 (eg, the 汲 terminal) is coupled to the second end of the termination impedance element R1. The control terminal (eg, the gate terminal) of the second switch P2 is configured to receive the control signal ENB_BFP. The control signal ENB_BFP can be any signal responsive to the system voltage rail TVCC voltage. For example, but not limited to, in some embodiments, the system voltage rail TVCC can be coupled to the control terminal of the second switch P2 to provide the control signal ENB_BFP.

在正常操作模式下,控制訊號ENB_BFP可以使第二開關 P2保持關斷(turn off)。控制信號ZB可以控制第一開關P1的導通狀態,使得控制電路130_1、130_2、130_3的終端阻抗元件105可以選擇性地提供電阻值至銲墊Rx0。因此,積體電路400可以利用控制信號ZB來調整控制電路130_1、130_2、130_3的終端阻抗值,以便對連接於銲墊Rx0的外部通信通道進行阻抗匹配。 In normal operation mode, the control signal ENB_BFP can make the second switch P2 remains turned off. The control signal ZB can control the conduction state of the first switch P1 such that the termination impedance element 105 of the control circuit 130_1, 130_2, 130_3 can selectively provide a resistance value to the pad Rx0. Therefore, the integrated circuit 400 can adjust the terminal impedance values of the control circuits 130_1, 130_2, 130_3 by the control signal ZB to perform impedance matching on the external communication channel connected to the pad Rx0.

當積體電路400進入電源關斷模式而停止供電至系統電壓軌線TVCC時,第一開關P1與第二開關P2可以阻止銲墊Rx0的通信訊號倒灌至系統電壓軌線TVCC。更具體來說,在電源關斷的狀況下,第二控制訊號ENB_BFP為低準位(例如是0V),因此圖4中的第二開關P2會導通。當銲墊Rx0的通信訊號倒灌至終端阻抗元件R1時,銲墊Rx0的高電壓準位(例如是3.3V)會經由第二開關P2而被傳至第一開關P1的控制端,而將第一開關P1關斷。關斷的第一開關P1可以防止銲墊Rx0的通信訊號倒灌至系統電壓軌線TVCC。 When the integrated circuit 400 enters the power-off mode and stops supplying power to the system voltage rail TVCC, the first switch P1 and the second switch P2 can prevent the communication signal of the pad Rx0 from being poured to the system voltage rail TVCC. More specifically, in the case that the power is turned off, the second control signal ENB_BFP is at a low level (for example, 0V), so the second switch P2 in FIG. 4 is turned on. When the communication signal of the pad Rx0 is poured to the terminal impedance element R1, the high voltage level of the pad Rx0 (for example, 3.3V) is transmitted to the control end of the first switch P1 via the second switch P2, and will be A switch P1 is turned off. The first switch P1 that is turned off prevents the communication signal of the pad Rx0 from being poured to the system voltage rail TVCC.

Referring to FIG. 5, the integrated circuit 500 includes a pad Rx0, a core circuit 110, and one or more control circuits (such as the control circuits 130_1, 130_2, 130_3 shown in FIG. 5). The other control circuits 130_2, 130_3 can be analogized with reference to the relevant description of the control circuit 130_1. The control circuit 130_1 of the integrated circuit 500 includes a termination impedance element R1, a first switch P1, a second switch P2, and a third switch N1. The integrated circuit 500, the control circuit 130_1, the terminal impedance element R1, the first switch P1 and the second switch P2 shown in FIG. 5 can refer to the integrated circuit shown in FIG. 400, the control circuit 130_1, the terminal impedance element R1, the first switch P1 and the second switch P2 are similarly described, and therefore will not be described again.

在此假設第三開關N1為N型金屬氧化半導體(N-channel Metal Oxide Semiconductor,NMOS)電晶體,但在其他實施例中並不限於此。在本實施例中,第三開關N1的第一端(例如源極端)可以接收由前級電路(未繪示)所提供的控制訊號ZB。第三開關N1的第二端(例如汲極端)耦接至第一開關P1的控制端。第三開關N1的控制端(例如閘極)受控於控制訊號ENB_BFP。控制訊號ENB_BFP可以是響應於系統電壓軌線TVCC電壓的任何信號。舉例來說(但不限於此),在一些實施例中,系統電壓軌線TVCC可以被耦接至第二開關P2的控制端與第三開關N1的控制端,以提供控制訊號ENB_BFP。當第二開關P2為導通時,第三開關N1為關斷。當第三開關N1為導通時,第二開關P2為關斷。 It is assumed here that the third switch N1 is an N-channel Metal Oxide Semiconductor (NMOS) transistor, but is not limited thereto in other embodiments. In this embodiment, the first end (eg, the source terminal) of the third switch N1 can receive the control signal ZB provided by the front stage circuit (not shown). The second end of the third switch N1 (eg, the 汲 terminal) is coupled to the control end of the first switch P1. The control terminal (eg, the gate) of the third switch N1 is controlled by the control signal ENB_BFP. The control signal ENB_BFP can be any signal responsive to the system voltage rail TVCC voltage. For example, but not limited to, in some embodiments, the system voltage rail TVCC can be coupled to the control terminal of the second switch P2 and the control terminal of the third switch N1 to provide the control signal ENB_BFP. When the second switch P2 is turned on, the third switch N1 is turned off. When the third switch N1 is turned on, the second switch P2 is turned off.

更具體而言,在正常操作模式下,控制訊號ENB_BFP可以使第二開關P2保持關斷,以及使第三開關N1保持導通。控制信號ZB可以控制第一開關P1的導通狀態。因此,積體電路500可以利用控制信號ZB來調整控制電路130_1、130_2、130_3的終端阻抗值,以便對連接於銲墊Rx0的外部通信通道進行阻抗匹配。 More specifically, in the normal mode of operation, the control signal ENB_BFP can keep the second switch P2 off and the third switch N1 on. The control signal ZB can control the conduction state of the first switch P1. Therefore, the integrated circuit 500 can adjust the terminal impedance values of the control circuits 130_1, 130_2, 130_3 by the control signal ZB to perform impedance matching on the external communication channel connected to the pad Rx0.

當積體電路500進入電源關斷模式而停止供電至系統電壓軌線TVCC時,低準位(例如是0V)的控制訊號ENB_BFP可以使第二開關P2保持導通,以及使第三開關N1保持關斷。當銲墊Rx0的通信訊號倒灌至終端阻抗元件R1時,銲墊Rx0的高電壓準 位(例如是3.3V)會經由第二開關P2而被傳至第一開關P1的控制端,進而將第一開關P1關斷。因此,第一開關P1與第二開關P2可以阻止銲墊Rx0的通信訊號倒灌至系統電壓軌線TVCC。除此之外,關斷的第三開關N1可以阻止銲墊Rx0的通信訊號倒灌至提供控制訊號ZB的前級電路(未繪示)。 When the integrated circuit 500 enters the power-off mode and stops supplying power to the system voltage rail TVCC, the low-level (eg, 0V) control signal ENB_BFP can keep the second switch P2 turned on, and keep the third switch N1 off. Broken. When the communication signal of the pad Rx0 is poured to the terminal impedance element R1, the high voltage of the pad Rx0 The bit (for example, 3.3V) is transmitted to the control terminal of the first switch P1 via the second switch P2, thereby turning off the first switch P1. Therefore, the first switch P1 and the second switch P2 can prevent the communication signal of the pad Rx0 from being inverted to the system voltage trajectory TVCC. In addition, the turned off third switch N1 can prevent the communication signal of the pad Rx0 from being poured to the front stage circuit (not shown) that provides the control signal ZB.

圖6是依照本發明的第三實施例的一種防止電源電流倒灌之控制電路的示意圖。請參照圖6,積體電路600包括銲墊Rx0、核心電路110以及一個或多個控制電路(例如圖6所示控制電路130_1)。其他控制電路可以以參照控制電路130_1的相關說明而類推。積體電路600的控制電路130_1包括終端阻抗元件R1、第一開關P1以及第二開關P2。圖6所示積體電路600、控制電路130_1、終端阻抗元件R1、第一開關P1與第二開關P2可以參照圖4所示積體電路400、控制電路130_1、終端阻抗元件R1、第一開關P1與第二開關P2的相關說明而類推,故不再贅述。 Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of a control circuit for preventing supply current from being reversed in accordance with a third embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 6, the integrated circuit 600 includes a pad Rx0, a core circuit 110, and one or more control circuits (such as the control circuit 130_1 shown in FIG. 6). Other control circuits can be analogized with reference to the control circuit 130_1. The control circuit 130_1 of the integrated circuit 600 includes a termination impedance element R1, a first switch P1, and a second switch P2. The integrated circuit 600, the control circuit 130_1, the terminal impedance element R1, the first switch P1 and the second switch P2 shown in FIG. 6 can refer to the integrated circuit 400, the control circuit 130_1, the terminal impedance element R1, and the first switch shown in FIG. The description of P1 and the second switch P2 is analogous, so it will not be described again.

於圖6所示實施例中,積體電路600更包括基體開關電路640。基體開關電路640的第一端耦接至第一開關P1的基體,而基體開關電路640的第二端耦接至系統電壓軌線TVCC。當積體電路600運行在正常操作模式時,基體開關電路640為導通,因此系統電壓軌線TVCC的系統電壓可以被傳輸至第一開關P1的基體。當積體電路600運行在電源關斷模式(省電模式)時,基體開關電路640為關斷,因此基體開關電路640可以阻止銲墊Rx0的通信訊號經由開關P1的基體倒灌至系統電壓軌線TVCC。 In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, the integrated circuit 600 further includes a base switching circuit 640. The first end of the base switch circuit 640 is coupled to the base of the first switch P1, and the second end of the base switch circuit 640 is coupled to the system voltage rail TVCC. When the integrated circuit 600 is operating in the normal operation mode, the base switching circuit 640 is turned on, and thus the system voltage of the system voltage rail TVCC can be transmitted to the base of the first switch P1. When the integrated circuit 600 is operated in the power-off mode (power saving mode), the base switching circuit 640 is turned off, so the base switching circuit 640 can prevent the communication signal of the pad Rx0 from being poured back to the system voltage trajectory via the base of the switch P1. TVCC.

於圖6所示實施例中,基體開關電路640包括第四開關P3、第五開關P4以及第六開關N2。在此假設第四開關P3、第五開關P4均為PMOS電晶體,而第六開關N2為NMOS電晶體,但在其他實施例中並不限於此。第四開關P3的第一端(例如源極)耦接至節點Vb,而節點Vb耦接至第一開關P1的基體。第四開關P3的第二端(例如汲極)耦接至系統電壓軌線TVCC。第四開關P3的基體耦接至節點Vb。第五開關P4的第一端(例如源極)耦接至第一開關P1的基體。第五開關P4的第二端(例如汲極)耦接至第四開關P3的控制端(例如閘極)。第五開關P4的基體耦接至節點Vb。第六開關N2的第一端(例如源極)耦接至接地電壓軌線GND。第六開關N2的第二端(例如汲極)耦接至第四開關P3的控制端(例如閘極)。 In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, the base switch circuit 640 includes a fourth switch P3, a fifth switch P4, and a sixth switch N2. It is assumed here that the fourth switch P3 and the fifth switch P4 are both PMOS transistors, and the sixth switch N2 is an NMOS transistor, but is not limited thereto in other embodiments. The first end (eg, the source) of the fourth switch P3 is coupled to the node Vb, and the node Vb is coupled to the base of the first switch P1. The second end (eg, the drain) of the fourth switch P3 is coupled to the system voltage rail TVCC. The base of the fourth switch P3 is coupled to the node Vb. The first end (eg, the source) of the fifth switch P4 is coupled to the base of the first switch P1. The second end (eg, the drain) of the fifth switch P4 is coupled to the control end (eg, the gate) of the fourth switch P3. The base of the fifth switch P4 is coupled to the node Vb. The first end (eg, the source) of the sixth switch N2 is coupled to the ground voltage rail GND. The second end (eg, the drain) of the sixth switch N2 is coupled to the control end (eg, the gate) of the fourth switch P3.

第五開關P4的控制端(例如閘極)以及第六開關N2的控制端(例如閘極)受控於控制訊號ENB_BFP。控制訊號ENB_BFP可以是響應於系統電壓軌線TVCC電壓的任何信號。舉例來說(但不限於此),在一些實施例中,系統電壓軌線TVCC可以被耦接至第五開關P4的控制端以及第六開關N2的控制端,以提供控制訊號ENB_BFP。當第五開關P4為導通時,第六開關N2為關斷。當第六開關N2為導通時,第五開關P4為關斷。 The control terminal (e.g., the gate) of the fifth switch P4 and the control terminal (e.g., the gate) of the sixth switch N2 are controlled by the control signal ENB_BFP. The control signal ENB_BFP can be any signal responsive to the system voltage rail TVCC voltage. For example, but not limited to, in some embodiments, the system voltage rail TVCC can be coupled to the control terminal of the fifth switch P4 and the control terminal of the sixth switch N2 to provide the control signal ENB_BFP. When the fifth switch P4 is turned on, the sixth switch N2 is turned off. When the sixth switch N2 is turned on, the fifth switch P4 is turned off.

在正常操作模式下,控制訊號ENB_BFP可以使第五開關P4保持關斷,以及使第四開關P3、第六開關N2保持導通。因此,系統電壓軌線TVCC的系統電壓可以經由第四開關P3與節點Vb 而被傳輸至第一開關P1的基體、第二開關P2的基體、第四開關P3的基體與第五開關P4的基體。 In the normal operation mode, the control signal ENB_BFP can keep the fifth switch P4 off, and keep the fourth switch P3 and the sixth switch N2 turned on. Therefore, the system voltage of the system voltage rail TVCC can be via the fourth switch P3 and the node Vb. The substrate is transferred to the base of the first switch P1, the base of the second switch P2, the base of the fourth switch P3, and the base of the fifth switch P4.

當積體電路600進入電源關斷模式而停止供電至系統電壓軌線TVCC時,低準位(例如是0V)的控制訊號ENB_BFP可以使第五開關P4保持導通,以及使第六開關N2保持關斷。當銲墊Rx0的通信訊號倒灌至終端阻抗元件R1時,銲墊Rx0的高電壓準位(例如是3.3V)會經由第一開關P1的基體、第五開關P4而被傳至第四開關P3的控制端,進而將第四開關P3關斷。因此,第四開關P3可以阻止銲墊Rx0的通信訊號經由第一開關P1的基體倒灌至系統電壓軌線TVCC。 When the integrated circuit 600 enters the power-off mode and stops supplying power to the system voltage rail TVCC, the low-level (for example, 0V) control signal ENB_BFP can keep the fifth switch P4 turned on, and keep the sixth switch N2 off. Broken. When the communication signal of the pad Rx0 is poured to the terminal impedance element R1, the high voltage level of the pad Rx0 (for example, 3.3V) is transmitted to the fourth switch P3 via the base of the first switch P1 and the fifth switch P4. The control terminal further turns off the fourth switch P3. Therefore, the fourth switch P3 can prevent the communication signal of the pad Rx0 from being poured into the system voltage rail TVCC via the base of the first switch P1.

圖7是依照本發明的第四實施例的一種防止電源電流倒灌之控制電路的示意圖。請參照圖7,積體電路700包括銲墊Rx0、核心電路110、靜電放電(electrostatic discharge,ESD)保護電路120、限流電阻以及一個或多個控制電路(例如圖7所示控制電路130_1、130_2與130_3)。積體電路700的控制電路130_1包括終端阻抗元件R1、第一開關P1以及第二開關P2。其他控制電路130_2與130_3可以以參照控制電路130_1的相關說明而類推。圖7所示積體電路700、控制電路130_1、終端阻抗元件R1、第一開關P1與第二開關P2可以參照圖4所示積體電路400、控制電路130_1、終端阻抗元件R1、第一開關P1與第二開關P2的相關說明而類推,故不再贅述。 Figure 7 is a schematic illustration of a control circuit for preventing supply current backflow in accordance with a fourth embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 7, the integrated circuit 700 includes a pad Rx0, a core circuit 110, an electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection circuit 120, a current limiting resistor, and one or more control circuits (such as the control circuit 130_1 shown in FIG. 7, 130_2 and 130_3). The control circuit 130_1 of the integrated circuit 700 includes a termination impedance element R1, a first switch P1, and a second switch P2. The other control circuits 130_2 and 130_3 can be analogized with reference to the related description of the control circuit 130_1. The integrated circuit 700, the control circuit 130_1, the terminal impedance element R1, the first switch P1 and the second switch P2 shown in FIG. 7 can refer to the integrated circuit 400, the control circuit 130_1, the terminal impedance element R1, and the first switch shown in FIG. The description of P1 and the second switch P2 is analogous, so it will not be described again.

限流電阻710配置於終端阻抗元件R1的第一端至核心電 路110的通信端之間的電性路徑中。限流電阻710可以阻擋/限制靜電放電電流經由銲墊Rx0而流入核心電路110中。靜電放電保護電路120耦接至銲墊Rx0。在發生靜電放電時,靜電放電保護電路120提供了從銲墊Rx0至接地電壓軌線GND的靜電放電電流路徑,從而防止銲墊Rx0的靜電放電電流衝擊核心電路110而導致內部損壞。 The current limiting resistor 710 is disposed at the first end of the terminal impedance element R1 to the core In the electrical path between the communication ends of the road 110. The current limiting resistor 710 can block/limit the electrostatic discharge current from flowing into the core circuit 110 via the pad Rx0. The ESD protection circuit 120 is coupled to the pad Rx0. When an electrostatic discharge occurs, the electrostatic discharge protection circuit 120 provides an electrostatic discharge current path from the pad Rx0 to the ground voltage rail GND, thereby preventing the electrostatic discharge current of the pad Rx0 from striking the core circuit 110 to cause internal damage.

在本實施例中,靜電放電保護電路120包括第一二極體D1、第二二極體D2以及箝位(voltage clamp)電路125。箝位電路125又可以稱為靜電放電鉗位(ESD clamp)電路。箝位電路125的第一端連接至第一二極體D1之陰極。箝位電路125的第二端連接至接地電壓軌線GND。當銲墊Rx0發生正靜電放電脈衝時,此正脈衝將經由第一二極體D1與箝位電路125而被導入接地電壓軌線GND。當銲墊Rx0發生負靜電放電脈衝時,此負脈衝將經由第二二極體D2而被導入接地電壓軌線GND。本實施例並不限定第一二極體D1、第二二極體D2以及箝位電路125的實施方式。舉例來說(但不限於此),第一二極體D1、第二二極體D2以及箝位電路125可以是公知靜電放電二極體與公知靜電放電鉗位電路,故不再贅述。 In the present embodiment, the ESD protection circuit 120 includes a first diode D1, a second diode D2, and a voltage clamp circuit 125. Clamp circuit 125 may also be referred to as an ESD clamp circuit. The first end of the clamp circuit 125 is connected to the cathode of the first diode D1. The second end of the clamp circuit 125 is connected to the ground voltage rail GND. When a positive electrostatic discharge pulse occurs in the pad Rx0, the positive pulse will be introduced to the ground voltage rail GND via the first diode D1 and the clamp circuit 125. When a negative electrostatic discharge pulse occurs in the pad Rx0, the negative pulse will be introduced to the ground voltage rail GND via the second diode D2. This embodiment does not limit the implementation of the first diode D1, the second diode D2, and the clamp circuit 125. For example, but not limited to, the first diode D1, the second diode D2, and the clamp circuit 125 may be a well-known electrostatic discharge diode and a known electrostatic discharge clamp circuit, and thus will not be described again.

應注意的是,當積體電路700進入電源關斷模式而停止供電至系統電壓軌線TVCC時,為了避免銲墊Rx0的通信訊號經由第一二極體D1倒灌至系統電壓軌線TVCC,圖7所示第一二極體D1的陰極不耦接至系統電壓軌線TVCC,而是耦接至一個「獨 立」的靜電放電軌線DIO。在積體電路700運行於正常操作期間,此靜電放電軌線DIO沒有被使用(例如,沒有被用來傳述通信訊號或系統電源)。當銲墊Rx0發生正靜電放電脈衝時,此正脈衝將經由第一二極體D1、靜電放電軌線DIO與箝位電路125而被導入接地電壓軌線GND。 It should be noted that when the integrated circuit 700 enters the power-off mode and stops supplying power to the system voltage rail TVCC, in order to prevent the communication signal of the pad Rx0 from being inverted to the system voltage rail TVCC via the first diode D1, the figure The cathode of the first diode D1 shown in FIG. 7 is not coupled to the system voltage rail TVCC, but is coupled to a single The electrostatic discharge rail DIO. This electrostatic discharge track DIO is not used during normal operation of the integrated circuit 700 (e.g., not used to communicate communication signals or system power). When a positive electrostatic discharge pulse occurs in the pad Rx0, the positive pulse will be introduced into the ground voltage rail GND via the first diode D1, the electrostatic discharge rail DIO, and the clamp circuit 125.

綜上所述,本實施例提出一種積體電路,其具有靜電保護功能,且能夠防止銲墊Rx0的通信訊號倒灌至系統電壓軌線TVCC之。當積體電路700進入電源關斷模式而停止供電至系統電壓軌線TVCC時,低準位(例如是0V)的控制訊號ENB_BFP可以使第二開關P2保持導通。當銲墊Rx0的通信訊號倒灌至終端阻抗元件R1時,銲墊Rx0的高電壓準位(例如是3.3V)會經由終端阻抗元件R1、第二開關P2而被傳至第一開關P1的控制端,進而將第一開關P1關斷。另一方面,第一二極體D1的陰極不耦接至系統電壓軌線TVCC。因此,積體電路700可以阻止銲墊Rx0的通信訊號倒灌至系統電壓軌線TVCC,而靜電放電保護電路120的保護功能依然能正常運作。 In summary, the present embodiment provides an integrated circuit that has an electrostatic protection function and can prevent the communication signal of the pad Rx0 from being poured to the system voltage rail TVCC. When the integrated circuit 700 enters the power-off mode and stops supplying power to the system voltage rail TVCC, the low-level (for example, 0V) control signal ENB_BFP can keep the second switch P2 turned on. When the communication signal of the pad Rx0 is poured to the terminal impedance element R1, the high voltage level of the pad Rx0 (for example, 3.3V) is transmitted to the control of the first switch P1 via the terminal impedance element R1 and the second switch P2. The terminal, in turn, turns off the first switch P1. On the other hand, the cathode of the first diode D1 is not coupled to the system voltage rail TVCC. Therefore, the integrated circuit 700 can prevent the communication signal of the pad Rx0 from being poured to the system voltage rail TVCC, and the protection function of the ESD protection circuit 120 can still operate normally.
