图1为本申请实施例中提供的一种均衡电路的电路结构示意图;
图2为本申请实施例中提供的另一种均衡电路的电路结构示意图;
图3为本申请实施例中提供的均衡电路在采集数据过程中的波形图;
图4为本申请实施例中所提供的均衡电路的均衡处理效果示意图。
具体实施方式
为使本申请实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例是本申请一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本申请保护的范围。
本申请实施例提供了一种新型的均衡电路,可以应用于各种类型的存储器,具体可以应用于各类存储器产品中的接收器电路,例如,可以应用于DDR4型内存中的接收器电路。
另外,在设计高速接收器时,也可采用本申请实施例提供的均衡电路。
目前在内存的接收器电路设计中,主要采用CTLE架构来进行均衡处理,其功能是根据信道的衰减特性进行信号补偿,以提高信号的质量。但是现有的这种均衡处理方式已经难以满足如DDR4型内存对信号质量的要求。
为了提高信号质量,本申请实施例所提供的均衡电路中包括两个具有不同参考电压的输入缓冲电路,选择采样电路在采集数据时,均基于前一 次所采集到的数据,从上述两个输入缓冲电路中选择合适的一个输入缓冲电路,并基于所选择的输入缓冲电路输出的数据信号进行数据采样,以提前进行数据均衡处理,从而可以更加有效的消除ISI,提升接收数据信号的质量。
参照图1,图1为本申请实施例中提供的一种均衡电路的电路结构示意图。上述均衡电路包括:第一输入缓冲电路10、第二输入缓冲电路20以及选择采样电路30。其中:
第一输入缓冲电路10与第二输入缓冲电路20分别与选择采样电路30连接,且第一输入缓冲电路10与第二输入缓冲电路20采用的参考电压不同。
选择采样电路30根据均衡电路前一次输出的数据,选择对第一输入缓冲电路10输出的数据信号或第二输入缓冲电路20输出的数据信号进行数据采样,并将采集到的数据作为均衡电路当前输出的数据。
示例性的,当均衡电路前一次输出的数据的值为1时,选择采样电路30选择对第一输入缓冲电路10输出的数据信号进行数据采样,并将采集到的数据作为均衡电路当前输出的数据;当均衡电路前一次输出的数据的值为0时,选择采样电路30选择对第二输入缓冲电路20输出的数据信号进行数据采样,并将采集到的数据作为均衡电路当前输出的数据。
可以理解的是,由于第一输入缓冲电路10与第二输入缓冲电路20所采用的参考电压不同,因此第一输入缓冲电路10与第二输入缓冲电路20对接收数据与参考电压进行比较时的电压裕度也会不同。当选择采样电路30在采集数据时,根据均衡电路前一次输出的数据,来选择从第一输入缓冲电路10所输出的数据信号中进行数据采集还是从第二输入缓冲电路20所输出的数据信号中进行数据采集,由此使上述均衡电路能够根据前一次输出的数据提前进行数据均衡处理,有助于消除ISI,提高接收数据信号的质量。
进一步的,基于上述实施例中所描述的内容,参照图2,图2为本申请实施例中提供的另一种均衡电路的电路结构示意图。本申请一种可行的实施方式中,上述均衡电路还包括参考电压产生器40,其中:
参考电压产生器40包括第一参考电压输出端H与第二参考电压输出 端L,第一参考电压输出端H输出的第一参考电压与第二参考电压输出端L输出的第二参考电压不同。
可选的,第一参考电压大于第二参考电压。
其中,第一参考电压输出端H与第一输入缓冲电路10的参考电压输入端连接,第二参考电压输出端L与第二输入缓冲电路20的参考电压输入端连接。
在本申请实施例中,选择采样电路30包括选择电路与采样电路,该选择电路与采样电路连接。其中,上述选择电路可以用于根据上述采样电路发送的数据,选择将第一输入缓冲电路10输出的数据信号或第二输入缓冲电路20输出的数据信号输入至上述采样电路;上述采样电路用于对该选择电路输入的数据信号进行数据采样。
具体的,仍参照图2,上述选择电路包括第一选择电路31与第二选择电路32,上述采样电路包括第一采样电路33与第二采样电路34;其中:

第二采样电路34用于将当前采集到的数据DQ_FALL发送至第一选择电路31的控制端c,第一选择电路31基于第二采样电路34发送的数据DQ_FALL,选择将第一输入缓冲电路10或第二输入缓冲电路20中的数据输入至第一采样电路33。
可选的,当第一采样电路33发送至第二选择电路32的控制端c的数 据DQ_RISE为1时,第二选择电路32选择将第一输入缓冲电路10的输出数据输入至第二采样电路34;当第一采样电路33发送至第二选择电路32的控制端c的数据DQ_RISE为0时,第二选择电路32选择将第二输入缓冲电路20的输出数据输入至第二采样电路34。
当第二采样电路34发送至第一选择电路31的控制端c的数据DQ_FALL为1时,第一选择电路31选择将第一输入缓冲电路10的输出数据输入至第一采样电路33;当第二采样电路34发送至第一选择电路31的控制端c的数据DQ_FALL为0时,第一选择电路31选择将第二输入缓冲电路20的输出数据输入至第一采样电路33。
可选的,第一选择电路31与第二选择电路32可以采用相同的电路结构,由此可以提高电路匹配程度,节省电路设计成本。
可选的,第一采样电路33与第二采样电路33也可以采用相同的电路结构,以提高电路匹配程度,节省电路设计成本。
进一步的,上述均衡电路还包括采样时钟输入电路50,该采样时钟输入电路50的输出端分别与第一采样电路33与第二采样电路34的采样时钟输入端连接,可以向第一采样电路33与第二采样电路34提供采样时钟信号。
其中,采样时钟输入电路50可以接收互为反向的采样时钟信号DQS和DQSB。
另外,采样时钟输入电路50中还包括比较器电路和延时电路。其中,延时电路可以用于调节比较器电路输出的采样时钟信号的相位。
示例性的,第一采样电路33在接收到的采样时钟信号DQS为上升沿时,基于第一选择电路31输出的数据信号进行数据采样,采集得到数据DQ_RISE,并将数据DQ_RISE发送至第二选择电路32,作为第二选择电路32的控制信号;第二采样电路34在接收到的采样时钟信号DQS为下降沿时,基于第二选择电路32输出的数据信号进行数据采样,采集得到数据DQ_FALL,并将数据DQ_FALL发送至第一选择电路31,作为第一选择电路31的控制信号。
进一步的,仍参照图2,第一输入缓冲电路10中包括第一比较器电路11与第一延时电路12,第一比较器电路11与第一延时电路12串联,第一 比较器电路11的参考电压输入端与第一参考电压输出端H连接。
第二输入缓冲电路20中包括第二比较器电路21与第二延时电路22,第二比较器电路21与第二延时电路22串联,第二比较器电路21的参考电压输入端与第二参考电压输出端L连接。
其中,第一比较器电路11的信号输入端与第二比较器电路21的信号输入端连接相同的输入数据信号DQ。
其中,第一延时元件12可以用于调节DQ信号的相位,使第一采样电路33接收到的DQ信号与采样时钟信号能够保持同步,从而使得第一采样电路33能够根据采样时钟信号采集到正确的数据。第二延时元件22同样用于调节DQ信号的相位,使第二采样电路34接收到的DQ信号与采样时钟信号保持同步,从而使得第二采样电路34能够根据采样时钟信号采集到正确的数据。
可选的,第一比较器电路11与第二比较器电路21可以采用相同的电路结构,由此可以提高电路匹配程度,节省电路设计成本。
可选的,第一延时电路12与第二延时电路22也可以采用相同的电路结构,以提高电路匹配程度,节省电路设计成本。
可以理解的是,若均衡电路当前输出的数据为第一采样电路33在采样时钟信号DQS为上升沿时所采集到的数据,则均衡电路前一次输出的数据为第二采样电路34在采样时钟信号DQS为该上升沿的前一个相邻下降沿时所采集到的数据;若均衡电路当前输出的数据为第二采样电路34在采样时钟信号DQS为下降沿时所采集到的数据,则均衡电路前一次输出的数据为第一采样电路33在采样时钟信号DQS为该下降沿的前一个相邻上升沿时所采集到的数据。
为了更好的理解本申请实施例,参照图3,图3为本申请实施例中提供的均衡电路在采集数据过程中的波形图。
在图3中,DQ_VREFDQADD表示第一输入缓冲电路10基于DQ信号与第一参考电压H输出的数据,包括DQ0、DQ1、DQ2……DQ_VREFDQSUB表示第二输入缓冲电路20基于DQ信号与第二参考电压L输出数据,同样包括DQ0、DQ1、DQ2……
本申请实施例中,当第一采样电路33接收到的采样时钟信号DQS为 上升沿时,采集数据DQ0,并将DQ0发送至第二选择电路32,若数据DQ0的值为1,则第二选择电路32通过其输入端a,将第一输入缓冲电路10中产生的数据输出至第二采样电路34,在第二采样电路34接收到的采样时钟信号DQS为下降沿时,即可采集到第一输入缓冲电路10输出的数据DQ1;若数据DQ0的值为0,则第二选择电路32通过其输入端b,将第二输入缓冲电路20中产生的数据输出至第二采样电路34,在第二采样电路34接收到的采样时钟信号DQS为下降沿时,即可采集到第二输入缓冲电路20输出的数据DQ1。
同理,在第二采样电路34采集到数据DQ1后,便将DQ1发送至第一选择电路31,若上述数据DQ1的值为1,则第一选择电路31通过其输入端a,将第一输入缓冲电路10中产生的数据输出至第一采样电路33,在第一采样电路33接收到的采样时钟信号DQS为上升沿时,即可采集到第一输入缓冲电路10输出的数据DQ2;若上述数据DQ1的值为0,则第一选择电路31通过其输入端b,将第二输入缓冲电路20中产生的数据输出至第一采样电路33,在第一采样电路33接收到的采样时钟信号DQS为上升沿时,即可采集到第二输入缓冲电路20输出的数据DQ2。
基于上述实施例中所描述的内容,在本申请一种可行的实施方式中,第一参考电压是对基准参考电压进行了增强,第二参考电压则是对基准参考电压进行了减弱。因此,当均衡电路前一次输出的数据为1时,选择参考电压为第一参考电压的第一输入缓冲电路所输出的数据信号进行数据采样;当均衡电路前一次输出的数据为0时,选择参考电压为第二参考电压的第二输入缓冲电路所输出的数据信号进行数据采样,能够有效提升均衡电路的输入电压裕度,从而有效的消除ISI,提高写入数据的眼图睁开大小。
为了更好的理解本申请实施例,参照图4,图4为本申请实施例中所提供的均衡电路的均衡处理效果示意图。
在图4中,可以明显的看出,当均衡电路前一次输出的数据Pre_Data的值为1时,选择参考电压为第一参考电压VREFDQ_ADD的第一输入缓冲电路所输出的数据信号进行数据采样,均衡电路的输入电压裕度(黑色箭头所示)明显大于通过参考电压为基准参考电压VREFDQ的输入缓冲电路所输出的数据信号进行数据采样时,上述均衡电路的输入电压裕度(灰 色箭头所示)。
同理,当均衡电路前一次输出的数据Pre_Data的值为0时,选择参考电压为第二参考电压VREFDQ_SUB的第二输入缓冲电路所输出的数据信号进行数据采样,均衡电路的输入电压裕度(黑色箭头所示)明显大于通过参考电压为基准参考电压VREFDQ的输入缓冲电路所输出的数据信号进行数据采样时,上述均衡电路的输入电压裕度(灰色箭头所示)。
本申请实施例所提供的均衡电路,包括两种采用不同参考电压的输入缓冲电路,在采集数据时,均基于均衡电路前一次输出的数据,从上述两个输入缓冲电路中选择合适的一个输入缓冲电路,然后对所选择的输入缓冲电路所输出的数据信号进行数据采样,可以有效增加均衡电路的输入电压裕度,进而提升接收数据信号的质量。
进一步的,基于上述实施例中所描述的均衡电路,本申请实施例中还提供一种数据采集方法,应用于上述实施例中所描述的均衡电路,该方法包括:
响应于采样时钟信号,根据均衡电路前一次输出的数据,选择对两个输入缓冲电路中的其中一个输入缓冲电路输出的数据信号进行数据采样,并将采集到的数据作为均衡电路当前输出的数据。
可选的,上述方法可以由均衡电路中的选择采样电路执行。例如,均衡电路在输出一次数据后,将输出的数据发送至选择采样电路,该选择采样电路在接收到的采样时钟信号为上升沿或下降沿时,根据接收到的均衡电路前一次输出的数据,选择对两个输入缓冲电路中的其中一个输入缓冲电路输出的数据信号进行数据采样,并将采集到的数据作为均衡电路当前输出的数据。
即本申请实施例所提供的数据采集方法,在采集数据时,需要根据均衡电路前一次输出的数据,从均衡电路的两个输入缓冲电路中选择其中一个所输出数据信号进行数据采集,以提前进行数据均衡处理,由此可以更加有效的消除ISI,提升接收数据信号的质量。
需要说明的是,上述数据采集方法所采用的处理方式可以参照上述实施例中所描述的均衡电路的工作原理,在此不再赘述。
进一步的,基于上述实施例中所描述的均衡电路,本申请实施例中还 提供一种存储器,该存储器包括上述实施例中所描述的均衡电路。具体可以参照上述实施例中所描述的均衡电路的工作原理,在此不再赘述。
