Description

電壓調整器
本發明係關於輸出定電壓之電壓調整器,更詳細而言,有關抑制產生在輸出電壓Vout之過衝的技術。
電壓調整器係輸入鋰離子2次電池或電池等之高的電源電壓,對微電腦等之裝置輸出比電源電壓低的電壓。電壓調整器為了使微電腦等之裝置穩定動作,以在輸出電壓Vout不會產生過衝為佳。
圖3為表示以往之電壓調整器的電路圖。
以往之電壓調整器具備基準電壓電路101、差動放大電路102、輸出PMOS電晶體104、分壓電阻電路106、由差動放大電路108和PMOS電晶體109所構成之過衝抑制電路300。
差動放大電路102係在非反轉輸入端子連接分壓電阻電路106之輸出端子,在反轉輸入端子連接基準電壓電路101,輸出端子被連接於輸出PMOS電晶體104 之閘極。輸出PMOS電晶體104係源極連接於電源輸入端子10,汲極連接於輸出端子12。分壓電阻電路被連接於輸出端子12和接地端子11之間。
分壓電阻電路106係將輸出端子12之輸出電壓Vout予以分壓,輸出反饋電壓Vfb。基準電壓電路101係輸出基準電壓Vref。差動放大電路102係在非反轉輸入端子被輸入反饋電壓Vfb,在反轉輸入端子被輸入基準電壓Vref,從輸出端子輸出之電壓Vdrv被輸入至輸出PMOS電晶體104之閘極。依此,構成負反饋電路,輸出端子12之輸出電壓Vout被控制成設定電壓。
差動放大電路108係在非反轉輸入端子連接基準電壓電路101,在反轉輸入端子連接分壓電阻電路106之輸出端子,輸出端子被連接於PMOS電晶體109之閘極。PMOS電晶體109係源極連接於電源輸入端子10,汲極連接於輸出PMOS電晶體端子之閘極。
當輸出端子12之電壓高於應被控制之特定電壓時,即是當產生過衝時,反饋電壓Vfb高於基準電壓Vref。因差動放大電路108之輸出電壓變低,故PMOS電晶體109成為接通。依此,輸出PMOS電晶體之閘極電壓Vdrv因接近於電源輸入端子10之輸入電壓Vin,故輸出PMOS電晶體104被控制成斷開。因此,過衝抑制電路300可以抑制輸出電壓Vout之過衝。
[先行技術文獻] [專利文獻]
[專利文獻1]日本特開2005-301439號公報
電壓調整器因無法升壓,故於輸入電壓Vin低於輸出電壓Vout之設定電壓時,輸出電壓Vout變得較設定電壓低。此時,當基準電壓Vref輸出特定電壓時,因反饋電壓Vfb低於基準電壓Vref,故差動放大電路102之輸出電壓成為接地電壓Vss(0V)。輸出PMOS電晶體104因閘極電壓Vdrv成為0V故接通。將該狀態稱為非調整狀態。
在非調整狀態中,因輸出PMOS電晶體在非飽和區域成為接通,故輸出電壓Vout與輸入電壓Vin幾乎相等。在此,當輸入電壓Vin急遽上升時,輸出電壓Vout也同樣上升。當輸出電壓Vout超越設定電壓時,閘極電壓Vdrv必須高於以輸入電壓Vin為基準而下降至輸出PMOS電晶體104之臨界電壓Vth的電壓(Vdrv>Vin-Vth)。但是,因從0V上升至其電壓需要時間,故輸出電壓Vout超過設定電壓,產生過衝。因此,當輸入電壓Vin從非調整狀態急遽上升時,產生最大的過衝。
為了抑制過衝,必須快速地響應輸入電壓Vin之急遽上升而使閘極電壓Vdrv上升,過衝抑制電路300 進行該動作。
輸入電壓Vin高於輸出電壓Vout之設定電壓時,為調整狀態,輸出電壓Vout被控制成設定電壓,閘極電壓Vdrv成為以輸入電壓Vin為基準而下降至輸出PMOS電晶體104之臨界電壓Vth程度的電壓(Vdrv≒Vin-Vth)。在輸入電壓Vin從調整狀態急遽上升之情況下,閘極電壓Vdrv若從Vin-Vth以輸入電壓Vin為基準變化至Vth以上之電壓(Vdrv>Vin-Vth)即可,因可以藉由負反饋電路所進行的控制,故過衝小。
因此,在調整狀態下,當過衝防止電路300動作,使閘極電壓Vdrv上升至輸入電壓Vin,且使輸出PMOS電晶體104完全斷開時,相反地會有輸出電壓Vout引起下衝之課題。
以往之電壓調整器即使在調整狀態下,過衝防止電路300也發揮功能,若過於抑制過衝,相反地會有引起輸出端子12之電壓較設定電壓低的下衝之課題。
本發明之電壓調整器為了解決上述課題,構成具備檢測出非調整狀態之非調整檢測電路,當非調整檢測電路檢測出非調整狀態時,過衝抑制電路進行動作。
若藉由本發明之電壓調整器,因構成於非調 整狀態時,過衝抑制電路進行動作,故不會使輸出電壓下衝,可抑制過衝產生。

本實施型態之電壓調整器具備基準電壓電路101、差動放大電路102、輸出PMOS電晶體104、分壓電阻電路106、過衝抑制電路100和非調整檢測電路200。過衝抑制電路100具備NAND電路107、差動放大電路108和PMOS電晶體109。非調整檢測電路200具備有比較器202、基準電壓電路203、比較器205、基準電壓電路206和OR電路208。
差動放大電路102係在非反轉輸入端子連接分壓電阻電路106之輸出端子,在反轉輸入端子連接基準電壓電路101,輸出端子被連接於輸出PMOS電晶體104之閘極。輸出PMOS電晶體104係源極連接於電源輸入端子10,汲極連接於輸出端子12。分壓電阻電路被連接於 輸出端子12和接地端子11之間。差動放大電路108係在非反轉輸入端子連接分壓電阻電路106之輸出端子,在反轉輸入端子連接基準電壓電路101,輸出端子被連接於NAND電路107之一方之輸入端子。NAND電路107之輸出端子被連接於PMOS電晶體109之閘極。PMOS電晶體109係源極連接於電源輸入端子10,汲極連接於輸出PMOS電晶體端子之閘極。比較器202係非反轉輸入端子連接基準電壓電路203,在反轉輸入端子連接差動放大電路102之輸出端子。比較器205係非反轉輸入端子連接基準電壓電路206,在反轉輸入端子連接差動放大電路102之輸出端子。OR電路208係在一方之輸入端子連接比較器202之輸出端子,在另一方之輸入端子連接比較器205之輸出端子,輸出端子被連接於NAND電路107之另一方之輸入端子。
分壓電阻電路106係將輸出端子12之輸出電壓Vout予以分壓,輸出反饋電壓Vfb。基準電壓電路101係輸出基準電壓Vref。差動放大電路102係在非反轉輸入端子被輸入反饋電壓Vfb,在反轉輸入端子被輸入基準電壓Vref,從輸出端子輸出之電壓Vdrv被輸入至輸出PMOS電晶體104之閘極。依此,構成負反饋電路,輸出端子12之輸出電壓Vout被控制成設定電壓。
差動放大電路108係在非反轉輸入端子被輸入反饋電壓Vfb,在反轉輸入端子被輸入基準電壓Vref,從輸出端子輸出之電壓經NAND電路107被輸入至輸出 PMOS電晶體109之閘極。過衝抑制電路100係差動放大電路108檢測出輸出端子之過衝,藉由PMOS電晶體109接通,抑制過衝。
比較器202係非反轉輸入端子被輸入基準電壓電路203所輸出之輸入電壓Vin基準之基準電壓V1,在反轉輸入端子被輸入PMOS電晶體104之閘極電壓Vdrv。因此,比較器202在電壓(Vin-V1)高於閘極電壓Vdrv之期間輸出High之檢測訊號Vdet1。比較器205係非反轉輸入端子被輸入基準電壓電路206所輸出之接地電壓Vss基準之基準電壓V2,在反轉輸入端子被輸入閘極電壓Vdrv。因此,比較器205在基準電壓V2高於閘極電壓Vdrv之期間輸出High之檢測訊號Vdet2。OR電路208被輸入比較器202所輸出之檢測訊號Vdet1和比較器205所輸出之檢測訊號Vdet2,輸出訊號Vdet被輸入NAND電路107。OR電路208係於檢測訊號Vdet1和檢測訊號Vdet2中之任一為High時,輸出High之檢測訊號Vdet。因此,NAND電路107係在檢測訊號Vdet為High之期間,即是非調整狀態之期間,藉由差動放大電路108檢測出輸出端子之過衝而予以輸出的High訊號,對PMOS電晶體109之閘極輸出Low之訊號。
圖2表示非調整檢測電路200之動作的動作圖。圖2之上方圖示表示使輸入電壓Vin上升時之閘極電壓Vdrv、電壓(Vin-V1)、基準電壓V2之關係。當輸入電壓Vin上升時,在時間T1,基準電壓V2成為特定之電 壓。接著,在時間T2,電壓(Vin-V1)上升。然後,在時間T3,閘極電壓Vdrv上升。
圖2之下方圖示表示比較器202之檢測電壓Vdet1和比較器205之檢測電壓Vdet2和OR電路208之輸出電壓Vdet。比較器202係於閘極電壓Vdrv為電壓(Vin-V1)以下之時(時間T0~T3)檢測出非調整,並輸出High之檢測訊號Vdet1。比較器205係於閘極電壓Vdrv為基準電壓V2以下之時(時間T2~T4)檢測出非調整,並輸出High之檢測訊號Vdet2。OR電路208係於檢測訊號Vdet1和檢測訊號Vdet2中之任一為High時,輸出High之檢測訊號Vdet。因此,可檢測出非調整狀態之全區域(時間T0~T4)。
如上述說明般,在非調整檢測電路200檢測出非調整狀態,而OR電路208輸出High之檢測訊號Vdet時,當差動放大電路108檢測出過衝,從過衝抑制電路100之NAND電路107被輸出PMOS電晶體109接通的訊號,抑制輸出端子12之過衝。因此,因在調整狀態下過衝抑制電路100不動作,故不會使輸出電壓下衝,可抑制過衝產生。
