Description
本發明是有關於一種開關電路,且特別是有關於一種具溫度補償機制的開關電路及使用此開關電路的調節器。The present invention relates to a switching circuit, and more particularly to a switching circuit having a temperature compensation mechanism and a regulator using the same.
一般來說,環境溫度會對電子裝置的效能產生極大的影響。舉例來說,雖然電子裝置於環境溫度為室溫(或常溫)的情況下可正常運作,然而,當環境溫度變化時(例如升至高溫或降至低溫時),電子裝置中的半導體元件(例如電晶體或二極體)的特性也會隨之變化。特別是,半導體元件的電流或電壓會隨環境溫度的變化而產生漂移,導致電子裝置的運作將隨環境溫度的變化而改變。嚴重者甚至會導致電子裝置無法運作或失控。In general, ambient temperature can have a significant impact on the performance of electronic devices. For example, although the electronic device can operate normally when the ambient temperature is room temperature (or normal temperature), when the ambient temperature changes (for example, when it rises to a high temperature or falls to a low temperature), the semiconductor component in the electronic device ( For example, the characteristics of a transistor or a diode will also change. In particular, the current or voltage of the semiconductor component may drift as the ambient temperature changes, causing the operation of the electronic device to change as the ambient temperature changes. Severe cases can even cause the electronic device to be inoperable or out of control.
更進一步來說,常見的電晶體(或二極體)的PN接面(PN junction)的介面導通電壓為負溫度係數。也就是說,當環境溫度越高時,上述的介面導通電壓越低,反之亦然。因此,當上述的電晶體作為開關時,電晶體開關的PN接面的介面導通電壓會隨著環境溫度變高而降低,導致電晶體開關的有效導通時間區間將會隨著環境溫度改變而變化。若將此電晶體開關應用在車用調節器以控制車用發電機,將會導致車用發電機的運作會隨環境溫度而產生變化,嚴重者更可能會讓車用發電機不穩,甚至無法正常運作。Furthermore, the interface turn-on voltage of the PN junction of a common transistor (or diode) is a negative temperature coefficient. That is to say, when the ambient temperature is higher, the above-mentioned interface on-voltage is lower, and vice versa. Therefore, when the above transistor is used as a switch, the interface conduction voltage of the PN junction of the transistor switch decreases as the ambient temperature becomes higher, and the effective conduction time interval of the transistor switch changes with the change of the ambient temperature. . If this transistor switch is applied to the vehicle regulator to control the vehicle generator, the operation of the vehicle generator will change with the ambient temperature. In severe cases, the vehicle generator will be unstable and even Not working properly.

溫度補償電路140耦接至主開關電路120。溫度補償電路140可反應於環境溫度的變化而調整控制信號CS的電流,以對主開關電路120的觸發電壓進行溫度補償,從而降低溫度變化對此觸發電壓的影響,其中上述的環境溫度即為開關電路100所處的環境的溫度。如此一來,可避免開關信號WS的時序因環境溫度變化而改變,故可達到精確控制開關信號WS的時序的目的。The temperature compensation circuit 140 is coupled to the main switch circuit 120.

以下請參照圖2,圖2是依照本發明一實施例所繪示的主開關電路及溫度補償電路的電路架構示意圖,可應用於圖1的具溫度補償機制的開關電路100。主開關電路220包括二極體221、電阻222、電晶體223以及偏壓電路224,但不限於此。二極體221的陽極端用以接收控制信號CS。二極體221的陰極端耦接溫度補償電路240。電阻222耦接在二極體221的陰極端與接地端GND之間。電晶體223的第一端用以產生開關信號WS。電晶體223的第二端耦接接地端GND。電晶體223的控制端耦接二極體221的陰極端。偏壓電路224耦接在電源端VDD與電晶體223的第一端之間,以對電晶體223進行偏壓。由於二極體221與電晶體223形成雙PN接面,因此主開關電路220的觸發電壓即為二極體221的順向電壓(Forward Voltage)與電晶體223的臨界電壓(Threshold Voltage)之和。Please refer to FIG. 2 .

The bias circuit 224 is coupled between the power terminal VDD and the first end of the transistor 223 to bias the transistor 223. Since the diode 221 and the transistor 223 form a double PN junction, the trigger voltage of the main switch circuit 220 is the sum of the forward voltage of the diode 221 and the threshold voltage of the transistor 223. .
如圖2所示,溫度補償電路240可為電流鏡電路,但本發明不限於此。溫度補償電路240可包括電晶體241、242以及參考電流源243,但不限於此。參考電流源243耦接在電源端VDD與電晶體241的第一端之間,用以提供參考電流Ir。電晶體241的第一端與控制端相耦接並耦接至電晶體242的控制端。電晶體241的第二端以及電晶體242的第二端耦接至接地端GND。電晶體242的第一端耦接二極體221的陰極端。在本發明的一實施例中,溫度補償電路240也可採用其他類型的電流鏡電路來實現,本發明並不對電流鏡電路的類型加以限制。As shown in FIG. 2, the temperature compensation circuit 240 may be a current mirror circuit, but the invention is not limited thereto. The temperature compensation circuit 240 may include the transistors 241, 242 and the reference current source 243, but is not limited thereto. The reference current source 243 is coupled between the power supply terminal VDD and the first end of the transistor 241 for providing a reference current Ir. The first end of the transistor 241 is coupled to the control end and coupled to the control end of the transistor 242. The second end of the transistor 241 and the second end of the transistor 242 are coupled to the ground GND. The first end of the transistor 242 is coupled to the cathode end of the diode 221. In an embodiment of the invention, the temperature compensation circuit 240 can also be implemented with other types of current mirror circuits, and the present invention does not limit the type of current mirror circuit.
在本發明的一實施例中,偏壓電路224可為偏壓電流源,但本發明並不以此為限。在本發明的一實施例中,電晶體223、241、242可採用NPN型雙載子接面電晶體(Bipolar Junction Transistor,BJT)來實現,但本發明並不以此為限。在本發明的其他實施例中,電晶體223、241、242也可採用N型金氧半場效電晶體(Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor,MOSFET)來實現。以下將針對圖2的主開關電路220及溫度補償電路240的運作進行說明。In an embodiment of the invention, the bias circuit 224 can be a bias current source, but the invention is not limited thereto. In an embodiment of the invention, the transistors 223, 241, and 242 can be implemented by using an NPN-type Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT), but the invention is not limited thereto. In other embodiments of the invention, the transistors 223, 241, 242 can also be implemented using a Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor (MOSFET). The operation of the main switch circuit 220 and the temperature compensation circuit 240 of FIG. 2 will be described below.
當控制信號CS的電壓為邏輯低位準時,二極體221為截止狀態,電晶體223的控制端(即基極端)的電壓Vb透過電阻222而為接地端GND的電位(為邏輯低位準),故電晶體223為關斷狀態,致使開關信號WS的電壓為電源端VDD的電位(為邏輯高位準)。基於電晶體223的控制端(即基極端)的電壓Vb為邏輯低位準,此時溫度補償電路240中的電晶體242將不會產生補償電流Ic。When the voltage of the control signal CS is at a logic low level, the diode 221 is in an off state, and the voltage Vb of the control terminal (ie, the base terminal) of the transistor 223 is transmitted through the resistor 222 to be the potential of the ground GND (which is a logic low level). Therefore, the transistor 223 is in an off state, causing the voltage of the switching signal WS to be the potential of the power supply terminal VDD (which is a logic high level). The voltage Vb based on the control terminal (i.e., the base terminal) of the transistor 223 is at a logic low level, at which time the transistor 242 in the temperature compensation circuit 240 will not generate the compensation current Ic.
當控制信號CS的電壓自邏輯低位準上升至大於或等於主開關電路220的觸發電壓(即二極體221的順向電壓與電晶體223的臨界電壓之和)時,二極體221及電晶體223可被導通,致使開關信號WS的電壓為接地端GND的電位(為邏輯低位準)。此時溫度補償電路240中的電晶體242將根據參考電流Ir而鏡射出(mirror)補償電流Ic,以增加流過二極體的電流(亦即控制信號CS的電流),其中補償電流Ic為正溫度係數電流。When the voltage of the control signal CS rises from the logic low level to be greater than or equal to the trigger voltage of the main switch circuit 220 (ie, the sum of the forward voltage of the diode 221 and the threshold voltage of the transistor 223), the diode 221 and the electricity The crystal 223 can be turned on, causing the voltage of the switching signal WS to be the potential of the ground GND (which is a logic low level). At this time, the transistor 242 in the temperature compensation circuit 240 will mirror the compensation current Ic according to the reference current Ir to increase the current flowing through the diode (that is, the current of the control signal CS), wherein the compensation current Ic is Positive temperature coefficient current.
更進一步來說,溫度補償電路240可反應於環境溫度上升而增加補償電流Ic的電流量,致使二極體221的順向電壓反應於補償電流Ic的增加而上升,以補償二極體221的順向電壓及電晶體223的臨界電壓因環境溫度上升所造成的降低量,故可避免主開關電路220的觸發電壓因環境溫度上升而產生變化。另外,溫度補償電路240可反應於環境溫度下降而減少補償電流Ic的電流量,致使二極體221的順向電壓反應於補償電流Ic的減少而下降,以補償二極體221的順向電壓及電晶體223的臨界電壓因環境溫度下降所造成的增加量,故可避免主開關電路220的觸發電壓因環境溫度下降而產生變化。可以理解的是,主開關電路220的觸發電壓在經溫度補償電路240的補償後可為近似零溫度係數的電壓。如此一來,可有效降低環境溫度因素對開關信號WS的時序的影響。Further, the temperature compensation circuit 240 can increase the current amount of the compensation current Ic in response to an increase in the ambient temperature, so that the forward voltage of the diode 221 rises in response to the increase of the compensation current Ic to compensate the diode 221. Since the forward voltage and the threshold voltage of the transistor 223 are lowered due to an increase in the ambient temperature, it is possible to prevent the trigger voltage of the main switch circuit 220 from changing due to an increase in the ambient temperature. In addition, the temperature compensation circuit 240 can reduce the current amount of the compensation current Ic in response to the decrease in the ambient temperature, causing the forward voltage of the diode 221 to decrease in response to the decrease of the compensation current Ic to compensate the forward voltage of the diode 221 . Since the threshold voltage of the transistor 223 is increased by the decrease in the ambient temperature, it is possible to prevent the trigger voltage of the main switch circuit 220 from changing due to a drop in the ambient temperature. It can be understood that the trigger voltage of the main switch circuit 220 can be a voltage of approximately zero temperature coefficient after being compensated by the temperature compensation circuit 240. In this way, the influence of the ambient temperature factor on the timing of the switching signal WS can be effectively reduced.
以下請合併參照圖2及圖3,圖3繪示圖2的主開關電路220於不同的情況下所產生的開關信號WS的時序示意圖。其中,電壓Vd_th0及波形W0分別為主開關電路220於室溫下的觸發電壓及所產生的開關信號WS,電壓Vd_th1及波形W1分別為主開關電路220於高溫下經溫度補償後的觸發電壓及所產生的開關信號WS,而電壓Vd_th2及波形W2分別為主開關電路220於高溫下未經溫度補償的觸發電壓及所產生的開關信號WS。根據圖3可知,於高溫下未經溫度補償所產生的開關信號WS (即波形W2)的時序相較於室溫下所產生的開關信號WS (即波形W0)的時序的差異較大,相對地,於高溫下經溫度補償後所產生的開關信號WS (即波形W1)的時序與室溫下所產生的開關信號WS (即波形W0)的時序的差異較小,因此圖2的溫度補償電路240確實可有效降低環境溫度因素對開關信號WS的時序的影響。Please refer to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 together. FIG. 3 is a timing diagram of the switching signal WS generated by the main switch circuit 220 of FIG. 2 under different conditions. The voltage Vd_th0 and the waveform W0 are respectively the trigger voltage of the main switch circuit 220 at room temperature and the generated switching signal WS, and the voltage Vd_th1 and the waveform W1 are respectively the trigger voltage of the main switch circuit 220 after temperature compensation at a high temperature. The generated switching signal WS, and the voltage Vd_th2 and the waveform W2 are respectively the trigger voltage of the main switching circuit 220 that is not temperature-compensated at a high temperature and the generated switching signal WS. According to FIG. 3, the timing of the switching signal WS (ie, waveform W2) generated without temperature compensation at a high temperature is larger than the timing of the switching signal WS (ie, waveform W0) generated at room temperature, and is relatively large. The difference between the timing of the switching signal WS (ie, waveform W1) generated by temperature compensation at a high temperature and the timing of the switching signal WS (ie, waveform W0) generated at room temperature is small, so the temperature compensation of FIG. 2 Circuit 240 does effectively reduce the effect of ambient temperature factors on the timing of switching signal WS.

綜上所述,在本發明實施例所提出的具溫度補償機制的開關電路及使用此開關電路的調節器中,溫度補償電路可反應於環境溫度的變化而間接地調整控制信號的電流,以對主開關電路的觸發電壓進行溫度補償,從而降低環境溫度變化對此觸發電壓的影響。如此一來,可避免主開關電路所產生的開關信號的時序因環境溫度變化而改變,故可有效改善環境溫度變化對開關電路及調節器所造成的影響,以使開關電路及調節器的運作更加穩定。In summary, in the switch circuit with the temperature compensation mechanism and the regulator using the switch circuit, the temperature compensation circuit can indirectly adjust the current of the control signal in response to the change of the ambient temperature, The temperature of the trigger voltage of the main switch circuit is compensated to reduce the influence of the ambient temperature change on the trigger voltage. In this way, the timing of the switching signal generated by the main switching circuit can be prevented from changing due to the change of the ambient temperature, so that the influence of the environmental temperature change on the switching circuit and the regulator can be effectively improved, so that the operation of the switching circuit and the regulator can be improved. more stable.
