Description

开关电容电路、压控振荡器和形成开关电容电路的方法Switched capacitor circuit, voltage controlled oscillator and method of forming switched capacitor circuit 技术领域Technical field
本发明涉及电路技术领域,并且更具体地涉及一种开关电容电路、包括该开关电容电路的压控振荡器以及形成开关电容电路的方法。The present invention relates to the field of circuit technology, and more specifically to a switched capacitor circuit, a voltage controlled oscillator including the switched capacitor circuit, and a method of forming a switched capacitor circuit.
背景技术Background technique
在电路系统中,将系统存储的总能量除以单一周期损失的能量定义为品质因子(Q)。在一个电路系统中,期望损耗的能量越少越好,即Q值越大越好。In a circuit system, the total energy stored in the system divided by the energy lost in a single cycle is defined as the quality factor (Q). In a circuit system, the less energy expected to be lost, the better, that is, the larger the Q value, the better.
目前,压控振荡器内一般设置有开关电容阵列,根据目标振荡频率控制开关电容阵列中的一个或多个开关闭合,使得接入一定的电容值后的压控振荡器能够输出最接近目标振荡频率的频率。At present, a voltage-controlled oscillator is generally equipped with a switched capacitor array, and one or more switches in the switched capacitor array are controlled to close according to the target oscillation frequency, so that the voltage-controlled oscillator with a certain capacitance value can output an oscillation closest to the target. Frequency frequency.
然而,随着信号频率越来越高,对压控振荡器的性能指标要求也越来越高。虽然开关电容阵列能够有效扩大压控振荡器的调谐范围,但是高频信号通过开关电容阵列时将产生一定的功率损耗,该功率损耗主要是由于开关电容阵列本身的等效串联电阻引起的。Q值较低的开关电容阵列对高频信号的响应能力差,甚至对高频信号造成严重衰减。此外,在传统的开关电容阵列结构中,来自外界的控制电压直接连接到晶体管的栅极而产生较大的噪声干扰,并且在交流通路中产生额外的对地电容。However, as the signal frequency becomes higher and higher, the performance requirements for the voltage controlled oscillator are also getting higher and higher. Although the switched capacitor array can effectively expand the tuning range of the voltage-controlled oscillator, a certain power loss will occur when high-frequency signals pass through the switched capacitor array. This power loss is mainly caused by the equivalent series resistance of the switched capacitor array itself. Switched capacitor arrays with low Q values have poor response capabilities to high-frequency signals, and may even cause severe attenuation of high-frequency signals. In addition, in the traditional switched capacitor array structure, the control voltage from the outside is directly connected to the gate of the transistor, resulting in large noise interference and additional capacitance to ground in the AC path.

图2示出了按照本发明的一个或多个实施例的图1中所示的开关电容电路的寄生等效模型。Figure 2 illustrates a parasitic equivalent model of the switched capacitor circuit shown in Figure 1 in accordance with one or more embodiments of the present invention.

In a transistor, the resistor Rmsw is the equivalent resistance of the transistor, and the resistors Rhs and Rhd are high-resistance resistors connected to the source S and drain D of the transistor respectively. The capacitor Cmgnd is a parasitic capacitance between the switched capacitor circuit and the substrate.
可选地,晶体管可以为MOS管,进一步可以为NMOS管,其栅极端可以接控制电压。Optionally, the transistor may be a MOS transistor, or further may be an NMOS transistor, and its gate terminal may be connected to a control voltage.
基于图2中所示的按照本发明的一个或多个实施例的图1中所示的开关电容电路10的寄生等效模型20,图1中所示的开关电容电路10的品质因子Q可以通过以下公式来表示:Based on the parasitic equivalent model 20 of the switched capacitor circuit 10 shown in FIG. 1 shown in FIG. 2 in accordance with one or more embodiments of the present invention, the quality factor Q of the switched capacitor circuit 10 shown in FIG. 1 can be Expressed by the following formula:
Figure PCTCN2022093604-appb-000001
Figure PCTCN2022093604-appb-000001
其中,f表示来自于压控振荡器的信号的振荡频率,C0和C1分别表示第一电容C0和第二电容C1的电容值,Rc0和Rc1分别表示第一电容C0的第一寄生电阻Rc0的阻值和第二电容C1的第二寄生电阻Rc1的阻值,以及Rnsw表示晶体管的等效电阻Rmsw的阻值。Among them, f represents the oscillation frequency of the signal from the voltage-controlled oscillator, C0 and C1 represent the capacitance values of the first capacitor C0 and the second capacitor C1 respectively, Rc0 and Rc1 respectively represent the first parasitic resistance Rc0 of the first capacitor C0 The resistance value and the resistance value of the second parasitic resistance Rc1 of the second capacitor C1, and Rnsw represent the resistance value of the equivalent resistance Rmsw of the transistor.
基于上述公式可知,可以通过减小并联电容(C0//C1)或者减小电阻(Rc0+Rmsw+Rc1)的方式来提高开关电容电路10的品质因子Q。Based on the above formula, it can be seen that the quality factor Q of the switched capacitor circuit 10 can be improved by reducing the parallel capacitance (C0//C1) or reducing the resistance (Rc0+Rmsw+Rc1).
可选地,第一电容C0和第二电容C1可以以第一预设方式进行配置,所述第一预设方式使得能够减小第一电容C0的第一寄生电阻Rc0的阻值和第二电容C1的第二寄生电阻Rc1的阻值。Optionally, the first capacitor C0 and the second capacitor C1 may be configured in a first preset manner, which enables the resistance of the first parasitic resistance Rc0 of the first capacitor C0 to be reduced and the second resistance of the first capacitor C0 to be reduced. The resistance of the second parasitic resistance Rc1 of the capacitor C1.
可选地,晶体管可以以第二预设方式进行配置,所述第二预设方式使得所述晶体管的等效电阻Rmsw的阻值减小。可选地,第二预设方式包括将所述晶体管的W/L的值增加到预定阈值,其中W表示所述晶体管的有源区宽度以及L表示所述晶体管的沟道长度,该预定阈值基于开关电容电路与衬底之间的寄生电容Cmgnd和开关电容电路的品质因子Q来确定。需要说明的是,W/L的值过大会导致开关电容电路与衬底之间的寄生电容Cmgnd过大,而过大的寄生电容Cmgnd会显著影响第一电容C0与第二电容C1的总电容值,从而影响压控振荡器的期望频率。因此,W/L的值的上限阈值的选择需要使得开关电容电路与衬底之间的寄生电容Cmgnd不显著影响第一电容C0与第二电容C1的总电容值并且开关电容电路的品质因子Q达到期望值。在一个优选实施方式中,W/L的值的上限阈值的选择使得开关电容电路与衬底之间的寄生电容Cmgnd小于第一电容C0与第二电容C1的总电容值的二十分之一。在另一个优选实施方式中,W/L的值的上限阈值的选择使得开关电容电路的品质因子Q大于30,即保证开关电容电路的品质因子Q远大于振荡器中电感的品质因子Q。一般工艺设计中,振荡器中电感的品质因子Q大约为3-8,因此W/L的值的上限阈值的选择需要使得开关电容电路的品质因子Q大于30。通过上述第二预设方式来配置晶体管,能够显著减小晶体 管的等效电阻Rmsw的阻值,从而提高开关电容电路10的品质因子Q。Optionally, the transistor may be configured in a second preset manner, which reduces the resistance value of the equivalent resistance Rmsw of the transistor. Optionally, the second preset method includes increasing the value of W/L of the transistor to a predetermined threshold, where W represents the active area width of the transistor and L represents the channel length of the transistor, and the predetermined threshold It is determined based on the parasitic capacitance Cmgnd between the switched capacitor circuit and the substrate and the quality factor Q of the switched capacitor circuit. It should be noted that an excessive value of W/L will cause the parasitic capacitance Cmgnd between the switched capacitor circuit and the substrate to be too large, and the excessive parasitic capacitance Cmgnd will significantly affect the total capacitance of the first capacitor C0 and the second capacitor C1 value, thereby affecting the desired frequency of the voltage controlled oscillator. Therefore, the upper limit threshold of the value of W/L needs to be selected so that the parasitic capacitance Cmgnd between the switched capacitor circuit and the substrate does not significantly affect the total capacitance value of the first capacitor C0 and the second capacitor C1 and the quality factor Q of the switched capacitor circuit Meet expectations. In a preferred embodiment, the upper limit threshold of the value of W/L is selected such that the parasitic capacitance Cmgnd between the switched capacitor circuit and the substrate is less than one-twentieth of the total capacitance value of the first capacitor C0 and the second capacitor C1 . In another preferred embodiment, the upper limit threshold of the W/L value is selected so that the quality factor Q of the switched capacitor circuit is greater than 30, that is, it is ensured that the quality factor Q of the switched capacitor circuit is much greater than the quality factor Q of the inductor in the oscillator. In general process design, the quality factor Q of the inductor in the oscillator is about 3-8, so the upper limit threshold of the W/L value needs to be selected so that the quality factor Q of the switched capacitor circuit is greater than 30. By configuring the transistors in the above second preset manner, the resistance value of the equivalent resistance Rmsw of the transistors can be significantly reduced, thereby improving the quality factor Q of the switched capacitor circuit 10.
在一个实施例中,第一电容C0和第二电容C1可以通过金属-氧化物-金属(metal-oxide-metal,MOM)电容来实现。MOM电容采用指状结构和叠层相结合的方法,在原有去耦电容的版图基础上利用同层金属构成的电容,以及多层金属堆叠的结构并联于去耦电容,从而可以在较小的面积下获得更大的电容值。In one embodiment, the first capacitor C0 and the second capacitor C1 may be implemented by metal-oxide-metal (MOM) capacitors. MOM capacitors use a combination of finger structure and lamination. Based on the layout of the original decoupling capacitor, capacitors composed of the same layer of metal are used, and a multi-layer metal stack structure is connected in parallel to the decoupling capacitor, so that it can be used in smaller devices. A larger capacitance value is obtained under the area.
图3示出了MOM电容的单个电容层版图结构。MOM电容的电容值主要是由相邻两个叉指金属的侧壁电容形成的,例如,如图3所示纵向放置的MOM电容,其包括12个叉指金属310。假设MOM电容中相邻两个叉指金属310形成的单位电容的容值为Cunit,在叉指金属的宽度以及长度不变的条件下,当MOM电容中包括12个叉指金属310时,MOM电容的容值为11*Cunit。需要说明的是,图3中所示的叉指金属310的数量仅是示例性的,在不脱离本发明的精神和范围的情况下,叉指金属310的数量可以多于12个或者少于12个。Figure 3 shows the layout structure of a single capacitor layer of a MOM capacitor. The capacitance value of a MOM capacitor is mainly formed by the sidewall capacitance of two adjacent interdigital metals. For example, a MOM capacitor placed vertically as shown in FIG. 3 includes 12 interdigital metals 310 . Assume that the unit capacitance formed by two adjacent interdigital metals 310 in the MOM capacitor is Cunit. Under the condition that the width and length of the interdigital metal remain unchanged, when the MOM capacitor includes 12 interdigital metals 310, the MOM The capacitance value of the capacitor is 11*Cunit. It should be noted that the number of interdigital metals 310 shown in FIG. 3 is only exemplary. The number of interdigital metals 310 may be more than 12 or less than 12 without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. 12.
根据本发明一优选的实施方式,MOM电容可以包括多个堆叠设置的图3中所示的金属层,多个堆叠设置的金属层中的每个金属层包括多个叉指金属310和连接多个叉指金属310的公共支点320。According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the MOM capacitor may include a plurality of stacked metal layers as shown in FIG. The two interdigitated fingers refer to the common fulcrum 320 of the metal 310 .
示例性地,当图3中所示的叉指金属310的数量为3个时,基于图3中所示的MOM电容的寄生等效模型,可以得到MOM电容的等效电阻R pn=2*(((((R 320+R 310)//R 310)+R 320)//R 310)+R 320),其中R 310表示单个叉指金属310的阻值,以及R 320表示对应于单个叉指金属310的公共支点320的阻值。 For example, when the number of interdigital metals 310 shown in Figure 3 is three, based on the parasitic equivalent model of the MOM capacitor shown in Figure 3, the equivalent resistance R pn of the MOM capacitor can be obtained =2* (((((R 320 +R 310 )//R 310 )+R 320 )//R 310 )+R 320 ), where R 310 represents the resistance value of a single interdigital metal 310 , and R 320 represents the resistance value corresponding to a single The cross refers to the resistance of the common fulcrum 320 of the metal 310 .
在一个实施例中,当第一电容C0和第二电容C1为MOM电容时,第一预设方式可以包括以下中的一个或多个方式:增加叉指金属310的宽度w1以减小所述叉指金属310的电阻R 310;增加公共支点320的宽度w2以减小公共支点的电阻R 320;以及在多个堆叠设置的金属层之间设置多个通孔。在一个优选实施方式中,可以将叉指金属310的宽度w1增加为所用工艺在多个堆叠设置的金属层中的相邻两个金属层之间能够设置通孔的最小宽度。在另一个优选实施方式中,可以将公共支点320的宽度w2增加为叉指金属310的宽度w1的8倍左右,由此在提高开关电容电路的Q值的情况下而不会引入多余的寄生电容Cmgnd且不会引入多余的电容面积。 In one embodiment, when the first capacitor C0 and the second capacitor C1 are MOM capacitors, the first preset method may include one or more of the following methods: increasing the width w1 of the interdigital metal 310 to reduce the The resistance R 310 of the interdigitated metal 310 is increased; the width w2 of the common fulcrum 320 is increased to reduce the resistance R 320 of the common fulcrum; and a plurality of via holes are provided between multiple stacked metal layers. In a preferred embodiment, the width w1 of the interdigital metal 310 can be increased to the minimum width that can provide a through hole between two adjacent metal layers in a plurality of stacked metal layers using the process. In another preferred embodiment, the width w2 of the common fulcrum 320 can be increased to about 8 times the width w1 of the interdigital metal 310, thereby improving the Q value of the switched capacitor circuit without introducing unnecessary parasitics. The capacitor Cmgnd does not introduce excess capacitance area.
通过上述第一预设方式来配置第一电容C0和第二电容C1,能够显著减小 第一电容C0的第一寄生电阻Rc0的阻值和第二电容C1的第二寄生电阻Rc1的阻值,从而提高开关电容电路10的品质因子Q。实验表明,通过上述第一预设方式来配置第一电容C0和第二电容C1,在信号频率为28GHz时能够将第一电容C0和第二电容C1的品质因子Q从大约15提高到大约190。By configuring the first capacitor C0 and the second capacitor C1 in the first preset manner, the resistance value of the first parasitic resistance Rc0 of the first capacitor C0 and the resistance value of the second parasitic resistance Rc1 of the second capacitor C1 can be significantly reduced. , thereby improving the quality factor Q of the switched capacitor circuit 10 . Experiments have shown that configuring the first capacitor C0 and the second capacitor C1 in the above-mentioned first preset manner can increase the quality factor Q of the first capacitor C0 and the second capacitor C1 from approximately 15 to approximately 190 when the signal frequency is 28 GHz. .
通过实验仿真可知,相比于传统工艺下在信号频率为28GHz时开关电容电路的Q值为9,根据本发明的一个或多个实施例的开关电容电路在信号频率为28GHz时能够取得34的Q值。因此,根据本发明的一个或多个实施例的开关电容电路的性能得到数倍的改进。It can be seen through experimental simulation that compared with the Q value of the switched capacitor circuit of 9 when the signal frequency is 28 GHz under the traditional process, the switched capacitor circuit according to one or more embodiments of the present invention can achieve a Q value of 34 when the signal frequency is 28 GHz. Q value. Therefore, the performance of a switched capacitor circuit according to one or more embodiments of the present invention is improved several times.
