Abstract

The invention provides an output buffer with high speed and low noise level. It is applicable in slew controlling the gunning transceiver logic (GTL+) signals. The last output element is driven simultaneously by both the normal and rapid driven elements. The normal and rapid driven elements will act synchronously when the input signal is changing from one state to another. The rapidly driven element will pull up the control voltage of the output element to a potential level with one potential difference less than the last potential. The potential level will then be pulled up to the last potential level by the normal driven element. The output element's operation will be rapid at first. Then, the output operation will be slow down when it is close to the last potential level. By reducing the delaying time of output buffer without causing any large echoes in output signals, high speed and low noise level can be accomplished.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (1) At this time, the potential of the node 350 will be raised to a high potential. When the input signal A is in another state, for example, when the potential is high, the driving elements 32 丨 and 322 are turned on. At this time, the potential of the node 350 is lowered to the ground potential. The potential change of the node 350 will control whether the output element 330 is turned on or not. The four driving elements 311, 312, 321, and 322 can be divided into two groups according to their driving capabilities. One of the driving elements 311 and 321 is an ordinary driving element. The other driving element 312 and 322 has a large driving capability. The driving element has a faster switching speed and can quickly change the potential of the node 350. And when the driving element 311 is turned on, the potential of the node 350 can be increased to be close to the positive power source VCC, and when the driving element 312 is turned on, a fixed voltage drop is maintained between the node 350 and the positive power source VCC, for example, at a voltage less than IV Pressure drop. Similarly, when the driving element 321 is turned on, the potential of the node 350 can be pulled down to be close to the ground potential, and when the driving element 322 is turned on, a fixed voltage drop is maintained between the node 350 and the ground potential, for example, less than IV Pressure drop. The output buffer 300 'shown in the block diagram above can be explained by using the equivalent circuit of FIG. The FET 411 functions as the driving element 311, the FET 412 and the diode 413 function as the driving element 312, and the FET 411 and 412 are in the form of PMOS. The FET 421 functions as the driving element 321, FET 422, and diode 423. The function is the same as driving element 322, while FETs 421 and 422 are in the form of NMOS. In order to achieve the purpose of the above block diagram, the driving capability of FETs 412 and 422 is much larger than FETs 411 and 421, and diodes 413 and 423 are conducting. When there is a fixed voltage drop at both ends, about 0.7V. (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page)

INTRODUCTION TO THE INVENTION (I) This invention is about An output buffer, and more particularly, it relates to an output buffer suitable for high-speed, low-noise slew control of GTL + signal specifications. In a typical digital circuit, 0V and 5V are usually used to represent different logic states of the digital signal. The components that make up a digital circuit can be divided into TTL and CMOS devices. Among them, digital circuits made up of TTL devices have faster speeds but consume higher DC power, while circuits made up of CMOS devices do not consume DC power. Slow and noisy. On the other hand, when the operating frequency of the logic circuit is increased to tens of MHz, if the parts are not properly arranged or properly isolated, electromagnetic interference (EMI) will occur. Due to the progress of the semiconductor manufacturing process, the operating voltage of CMOS digital circuits is getting lower and lower. If the operating voltage of the integrated circuit (1C) at both ends of the transmission line is not the same, it will cause the two 1Cs to have different output high potentials. Level. Therefore, another electronic signal specification called GTL (Gunning Transceiver Logic) output buffer has recently been proposed, and GTL + signal specifications have been further proposed later. The amplitude of the GTL + signal is between 0V and 1.5V, and a terminal resistor is connected to the terminal of the signal transmission line to 1.5V. In this way, when the transmission line is transmitting in two directions, its high potential will not be different because of the two 1C operating voltages. A circuit diagram of an output buffer of a conventional GTL + circuit is shown in FIG. The output buffer 100 can accept the input signal A and then output the output signal Vo. The input signal A generally has two states of high potential and low potential, and the output signal Vo changes with the input signal A. Then output signal Vo The paper size is suitable for Chinese National Standard (CNS) Α4 size (210X297mm) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) .0.

The driving capacity is proportional to the gate width of the FET and inversely proportional to the gate length of the FET. Therefore, adjusting the gate width / length ratio of the FET can control the driving capability of each FET. For example, the The gate width / length ratio 値 is set approximately as follows. The ratio of FET 611 to FET 612 is 1: 7, and the ratio of FET 621 to FET 622 is 1:25. Because the mobility of general PMOS FETs is worse than that of NMOSFETs, in general transmission gates, PMOSFETs must have the same driving capabilities as NMOSFETs. The width / length ratio of PMOS FETs is about _〇S FETs. double. According to the above conditions, it can be concluded that the driving capability of the FET 612 is greater than that of the FET 611, and the driving capability of the FET 622 is greater than that of the FET 621. The driving capabilities of the FETs 612 and 622 are much larger than those of the FETs 611 and 621. Therefore, the basic idea of the present invention is different from the general transmission gate. In addition, the FET 630 provides the external output current, so its driving capacity is the largest. Through the above-mentioned high-speed and low-noise output buffer of the present invention, when the input signal is changed from one state to another state, the ordinary and fast driving elements act simultaneously, and the fast driving element quickly pulls the control voltage of the output element to A potential with a small gap from the final potential, and then the ordinary driving element will pull the control voltage to the final potential ', so that the output of the output element changes quickly at the beginning, and near the final state,' slows the speed of change, In this way, the change time of the entire state can be shortened, that is, the delay time of the output buffer is reduced, but it does not cause an excessively large echo of the output signal, thus achieving the purpose of high speed and low noise. From the above discussion, it can be seen that the high-speed and low-noise output buffer of the present invention is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) ir line 3224tWf / 〇〇S A7 -----_____ B7 V. Description of the invention (" " Send to other device's input / output terminal via transmission line 160, such as device 171, because Field Effect Transistor (surface FET) 130 adopts Open drain (〇Pen drain) connection, so the transmission line 160 can transmit signals in both directions. When the FET 13 is turned off, the input buffer 18 can receive signals from other devices, such as device 172. In order to make When the transmission line is transmitting in both directions, its high potential is the same voltage 値, so the terminal of the transmission line 160 is connected to the power supply vtt with a terminal resistance 165, and the power supply Vtt can generally be 1'5V. The output buffer 100 has two FETs 110 and 120. The driving transistor and the output transistor of the FET 130. The input signal a is passed through the driving transistor FETs 110 and 120 to provide sufficient driving current to drive the output transistor FET 130 'and the output transistor FET 130. It can provide greater driving capability to drive other circuit elements externally connected to the transmission line 160. When the input signal A is at a low potential, the FET 110 is turned on, and the blue potential of the FET 130 is pulled up to a high potential, which makes the FET 130 Turn on, pull down the output signal Vo to near ground potential, make the resistance of the terminal resistance 165 Rtt, and the on-resistance FET when the FET 130 is turned on is Rm, then the voltage of the output signal Vo at low potential is as follows Formula V〇 = Vtt * — ^

Description of the Invention (4) ~-Input Buffer 180 Accept signals from other devices. Please refer to FIG. 2 for the waveforms of the input and output signals of the output buffer 100. The waveform (A) is that the input signal A changes from ^ potential to high potential at time u. Because the focus of the discussion here is on the change of the output buffer ', the time delay of the input signal A is ignored. At low frequencies, its output signal Vo is like waveform (B). After the delay time dl, the output signal Vo completely changes from low potential to high potential β. In order to increase the operating frequency of the system, it is important to shorten the delay time dl. Problem, but the general specifications of the output buffer have a minimum driving capacity for the output transistor, so the driving current capability of the driving transistor of the output buffer 100 can only be improved to make the switching speed of the transistor ^ Add. However, if the driving capacity of the driving transistors (110 and 120) is simply improved to shorten the delay time, the signal will be deteriorated, as shown in the waveform (C). After the delay time d2, the output signal Vo is completely changed from a low potential. &Amp; to a high potential, but because the FET 130 turns off quickly, the output signal changes too quickly 'will cause a ring back phenomenon, as shown by point P, the signal generates a ring back phenomenon, making it difficult for the receiving end to distinguish between “〇” and "The logic signal of Γ causes the system to be unstable. From the above discussion, we can see that the output buffer of the GTL + signal in Figure 1 has the following disadvantages: 1.

Description of the invention (1) At this time, the potential of the node 350 will be raised to a high potential. When the input signal A is in another state, for example, when the potential is high, the driving elements 32 丨 and 322 are turned on. At this time, the potential of the node 350 is lowered to the ground potential. The potential change of the node 350 will control whether the output element 330 is turned on or not. The four driving elements 311, 312, 321, and 322 can be divided into two groups according to their driving capabilities. One of the driving elements 311 and 321 is an ordinary driving element. The other driving element 312 and 322 has a large driving capability. The driving element has a faster switching speed and can quickly change the potential of the node 350. And when the driving element 311 is turned on, the potential of the node 350 can be increased to be close to the positive power source VCC, and when the driving element 312 is turned on, a fixed voltage drop is maintained between the node 350 and the positive power source VCC, for example, at a voltage less than IV Pressure drop. Similarly, when the driving element 321 is turned on, the potential of the node 350 can be pulled down to be close to the ground potential, and when the driving element 322 is turned on, a fixed voltage drop is maintained between the node 350 and the ground potential, for example, less than IV Pressure drop. The output buffer 300 'shown in the block diagram above can be explained by using the equivalent circuit of FIG. The FET 411 functions as the driving element 311, the FET 412 and the diode 413 function as the driving element 312, and the FET 411 and 412 are in the form of PMOS. The FET 421 functions as the driving element 321, FET 422, and diode 423. The function is the same as driving element 322, while FETs 421 and 422 are in the form of NMOS. In order to achieve the purpose of the above block diagram, the driving capability of FETs 412 and 422 is much larger than FETs 411 and 421, and diodes 413 and 423 are conducting. When there is a fixed voltage drop at both ends, about 0.7V. (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page)

Print to _____ B7 V. Invention Explanation (/.) The operation method of the above-mentioned high-speed and low-noise output buffer can be described with the waveform in Fig. 5. For convenience, only the actual circuit in Fig. 4 is used for explanation. The waveform (A) shows a state where the state of the input signal A changes from a high potential to a low potential at time t, and as described above, the delay time is ignored. The waveform (B) is assuming that Fet 411 is not connected, and the FET 412 and the diode 413 are considered separately. When the input signal a changes from a high potential to a low potential, the FET 412 is completely turned on after a delay time dl, and the node 450 is turned on. The potential of V is increased to the potential of the differential voltage drop Vx from the positive power source VCC, and the voltage drop Vx is equal to the forward voltage drop of the diode 413 by 0.7V. The waveform (C) is assuming that the FET 412 and the diode 413 are not connected, and the FET 411 is turned on separately. When the input signal a changes from a high potential to a low potential, the FET 411 is fully turned on after a delay time d2, and the node is turned on. The potential of 450 is increased to be close to the positive power source VCC, and since the driving capability of the FET 411 is smaller than that of the FET 412, the delay time d2> dl. The waveform (D) is to consider the conduction situation when FET 411, FET 412, and diode 413 are connected at the same time. When the input signal A changes from high potential to low potential, FET 411 and FET 412 start conducting at the same time. The driving power of 412 is large, so the potential of node 450 can be quickly raised to the potential of the differential voltage drop Vx from the positive power supply VCC, and then the potential of node 450 can no longer be raised, and FET 411 continues to increase the potential of node 450. The potential rises to a level close to the positive power source VCC, the delay time at which the potential of the node 450 changes from a low potential to a high potential is d3, and the comparison of the delay times of the three waveforms is d2 > d3 > dl. The waveform (E) is the change of the output signal Vo. When the node 450 (谙 read the precautions on the back before filling in this page) 5 ·

Description of the invention (/ ί) The potential is raised to a high potential, and the FET 430 is turned on, and the output signal Vo is pulled As low as close to the ground potential, when the output signal Vo starts to change, the falling speed is faster due to the action of the FET 412. When the FET 412 stops functioning, the FET 411 acts alone, so the change rate slows down, so the overall fall time can be shortened , And can reduce the phenomenon of signal oscillation, and achieve the goal of high speed and low noise. The fast driving element in the output buffer circuit of FIG. 4 is composed of FETs and diodes. In actual production, the effect is limited. Therefore, the circuit shown in FIG. 6 can be used to implement it. Please also refer to the block diagram in FIG. 3, where FET 611 functions as the driving element 311, FET 612 functions as the driving element 312, and FET611 is in the form of PM0S, FET612 is in the form of NMOS, and FET 621 functions as the driving element 321. The function of FET 622 is similar to that of driving element 322. FET 621 is in the form of NMOS, and FET 622 is in the form of PM0S. To achieve the above block diagram, the driving capabilities of FETs 612 and 622 need to be much larger than those of FETs 611 and 621. Because the control methods of NM0S and PM0S are different ', FETs 611 and 621 are controlled by input signal A, and FETs 612 and 622 are controlled by complementary input signal X. Please refer to the waveform in Figure 5 at the same time. When it becomes low, the complementary input signal X changes from low to high. First consider the FET 612. After the complementary input signal X goes high, the FET 612 'will start to conduct.' Because the FET has a threshold voltage, so the connection of the FET 612 is shown in the figure. When the FET 612 is fully turned on, It is not possible to raise the potential of node 650 to be close to a positive power supply. /.1. ^; ------- install-- (诮 Read the precautions on the back before filling this page) The center of the 軤 浐 part of the wire «. ^-^^^ Industrial, consumer, and industrial resources ^ The printed rice paper size is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (2 丨 0X297 gong) 3224twf / 005 A7 B7: 'Ministry of China Rongda iv-/: Jh τ_ Disappeared in combination " Ink 5 、 Invention (/ ^) vcc 'and there is a fixed voltage drop between the positive voltage and VCC equal to the threshold voltage. At this time, the threshold voltage is critical because it is affected by the body effect. The voltage is larger than normal, so the waveform of node 65 is as shown in the waveform (B) in Figure 5. Although the driving capability of FET 612 is large, the potential of node 650 can only be raised to a level different from the positive power supply VCC. The potential of the voltage drop Vx, which is the threshold voltage of the FET 612. Considering the situation of FET 611 again, FET 611 starts conducting after the input signal A goes low. As shown in the waveform (C) in Figure 5, although the speed of FET 611 is slower, the potential of node 650 can be increased. To a potential very close to the positive supply VCC. Therefore, when the FETs 611 and 612 function at the same time, their waveforms are as shown in the waveform (D) in Figure 5. When the FET 612 starts to conduct, the potential of the node 650 is quickly raised to the potential of the voltage drop Vx from the positive power supply VCC. After the FET 612 stops functioning, the FET 611 continues to function, and the potential of the node 650 is further increased to be closer to the positive power source VCC. On the other hand, the functions of FET 621 and FET 622 are the same. When input signal A changes from low potential to high potential, FET 622 is turned on by complementary input signal X from high potential to low potential. The potential is pulled down to a potential that is different from the ground potential by a voltage drop Vx, where the voltage drop Vx is the critical voltage of the FET 622, and after the FET 622 stops functioning, the FET 621 continues to function, pulling the node 650 potential closer to ground Potential. As discussed above, the output buffer circuit of Fig. 6 functions just like the circuit of Fig. 4, but it can reduce the output delay time and noise.

V. Invention Description (丨 &); L—' 一 " The driving current is proportional to the driving current, that is, the larger the driving capacity, the faster the speed. The driving capacity is proportional to the gate width of the FET and inversely proportional to the gate length of the FET. Therefore, adjusting the gate width / length ratio of the FET can control the driving capability of each FET. For example, the The gate width / length ratio 値 is set approximately as follows. The ratio of FET 611 to FET 612 is 1: 7, and the ratio of FET 621 to FET 622 is 1:25. Because the mobility of general PMOS FETs is worse than that of NMOSFETs, in general transmission gates, PMOSFETs must have the same driving capabilities as NMOSFETs. The width / length ratio of PMOS FETs is about _〇S FETs. double. According to the above conditions, it can be concluded that the driving capability of the FET 612 is greater than that of the FET 611, and the driving capability of the FET 622 is greater than that of the FET 621. The driving capabilities of the FETs 612 and 622 are much larger than those of the FETs 611 and 621. Therefore, the basic idea of the present invention is different from the general transmission gate. In addition, the FET 630 provides the external output current, so its driving capacity is the largest. Through the above-mentioned high-speed and low-noise output buffer of the present invention, when the input signal is changed from one state to another state, the ordinary and fast driving elements act simultaneously, and the fast driving element quickly pulls the control voltage of the output element to A potential with a small gap from the final potential, and then the ordinary driving element will pull the control voltage to the final potential ', so that the output of the output element changes quickly at the beginning, and near the final state,' slows the speed of change, In this way, the change time of the entire state can be shortened, that is, the delay time of the output buffer is reduced, but it does not cause an excessively large echo of the output signal, thus achieving the purpose of high speed and low noise. From the above discussion, it can be known that the high-speed and low-noise output buffer of the present invention is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) ir line 3224twf / 005 A7 B7 V. Inventor (丨 +) has the following advantages compared with the conventional method: 1. With ordinary and fast driving elements at the same time, when the output transistor is turned on or off, it changes quickly first and then slowly changes to The final state can increase the switching speed, effectively reduce the delay time, and increase the operating frequency. 2. Because the output signal changes quickly first, and then slowly changes to the final potential, this can effectively avoid the phenomenon of excessive signal oscillation and reduce the problem of noise. Although the present invention has been disclosed as above with a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make a few changes and decorations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. The scope of protection of the invention shall be determined by the scope of the attached patent application.
