Description

時脈產生裝置Clock generating device

本發明是有關於一種時脈產生裝置,且特別是有關於一種振盪頻率不受溫度影響的時脈產生裝置。The present invention relates to a clock generating apparatus, and more particularly to a clock generating apparatus in which an oscillation frequency is not affected by temperature.

於電路設計法則中,通常會設計時脈信號,以控制各個電路處理信號的時序,防止因信號不同步而產生誤動作。例如,時脈信號的應用可以包括啟動觸發、重置設定、參考信號等。因此,在IC設計中,通常需要時脈信號來作為動作進行的依據。此時,通常會於IC的外部設置晶體(crystal)、震盪器(oscillator)或時脈產生裝置(clock generating device),以作為時脈信號的來源(source)。In the circuit design rule, the clock signal is usually designed to control the timing of the signals processed by each circuit to prevent malfunction due to signal unsynchronization. For example, the application of the clock signal may include a start trigger, a reset setting, a reference signal, and the like. Therefore, in IC design, the clock signal is usually required as the basis for the action. At this time, a crystal, an oscillator, or a clock generating device is usually provided outside the IC as a source of the clock signal.

此外,由於科技的發達,IC內電子元件的密度也越來越高。因此,在某些精密電子裝置運作時,其內部會產生大量的熱量,致使其內部溫度會提高。此時,若時脈產生裝置受到內部溫度的影響而使時脈信號的振盪頻率變動時,則可能影響到精密電子裝置的運作,進而造成不可預期的後果。因此,若時脈產生裝置受溫度的影響越低,則精密電子裝置的運作會越不受溫度的影響。In addition, due to the development of technology, the density of electronic components in ICs is also increasing. Therefore, when some precision electronic devices operate, a large amount of heat is generated inside, which causes the internal temperature to increase. At this time, if the clock generating device is affected by the internal temperature and the oscillation frequency of the clock signal is changed, the operation of the precision electronic device may be affected, thereby causing unpredictable consequences. Therefore, if the clock generating device is less affected by temperature, the operation of the precision electronic device is less affected by temperature.

為讓本發明之上述特徵和優點能更明顯易懂,下文特舉實施例,並配合所附圖式作詳細說明如下。The above described features and advantages of the present invention will be more apparent from the following description.

圖1為依據本發明一實施例的時脈產生裝置的系統示意圖。請參照圖1,在本實施例中,時脈產生裝置100包括第一節點A、電流產生單元110、積分電路120、壓控振盪器130及電荷幫浦電路140,其中壓控振盪器例如為LC壓控振盪器、RC壓控振盪器、電晶體壓控振盪器或其他類型的壓控震盪器。電流產生單元110用以輸出不受溫度影響(等同於具有零溫度係數)的固定電流If至第一節點A。1 is a system diagram of a clock generation device in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1 , in the embodiment, the clock generating apparatus 100 includes a first node A, a current generating unit 110, an integrating circuit 120, a voltage controlled oscillator 130, and a charge pump circuit 140. The voltage controlled oscillator is, for example, LC voltage controlled oscillator, RC voltage controlled oscillator, transistor voltage controlled oscillator or other type of voltage controlled oscillator. The current generating unit 110 is configured to output a fixed current If that is not affected by temperature (equivalent to having a zero temperature coefficient) to the first node A.

積分電路120連接第一節點A,用以依據自第一節點A所接收的電流輸出控制電壓Vctrl。壓控振盪器130連接積分電路120,以依據控制電壓Vctrl輸出時脈信號CLK。電荷幫浦電路140接收參考電壓VR,並連接第一節點A及壓控振盪器130,以依據參考電壓VR及時脈信號CLK自第一節點A接收灌電流Is。當時脈產生裝置100穩定時,灌電流Is會等於固定電流If。其中,積分電路120及壓控振盪器130可視為一控制電路,而積分電路120可作為控制電路的第一端以接收來自第一節點A的電流,而壓控振盪器130的輸出端可作為控制電路的第二端以輸出時脈信號CLK。The integrating circuit 120 is connected to the first node A for outputting the control voltage Vctrl according to the current received from the first node A. The voltage controlled oscillator 130 is connected to the integrating circuit 120 to output the clock signal CLK in accordance with the control voltage Vctrl. The charge pump circuit 140 receives the reference voltage VR and connects the first node A and the voltage controlled oscillator 130 to receive the sink current Is from the first node A according to the reference voltage VR and the pulse signal CLK. When the pulse generating device 100 is stable, the sinking current Is will be equal to the fixed current If. The integrating circuit 120 and the voltage controlled oscillator 130 can be regarded as a control circuit, and the integrating circuit 120 can serve as a first end of the control circuit to receive current from the first node A, and the output of the voltage controlled oscillator 130 can be used as The second end of the control circuit outputs a clock signal CLK.

進一步來說,當時脈產生裝置100開始運作時,電流產生單元110會提供固定電流If至第一節點A,並且自第一節點A流至積分電路120的電流(即第一部分的固定電流If)為固定電流If扣除灌電流Is(即第二部分的固定電流If)的部分,而積分電路120依據所接收到的電流輸出控制電壓Vctrl。壓控振盪器130則依據控制電壓Vctrl的電壓準位大小決定時脈信號CLK的頻率,其中時脈信號CLK的頻率正比於控制電壓Vctrl的電壓準位。電荷幫浦電路140依據參考電壓VR及時脈信號CLK的頻率決定所接收的灌電流Is的大小,其中灌電流Is的電流大小正比於參考電壓VR的電壓準位及時脈信號CLK的頻率。Further, when the pulse generating device 100 starts operating, the current generating unit 110 supplies the fixed current If to the first node A, and the current flowing from the first node A to the integrating circuit 120 (ie, the first portion of the fixed current If) The portion of the sink current Is (i.e., the fixed current If of the second portion) is subtracted for the fixed current If, and the integrating circuit 120 outputs the control voltage Vctrl in accordance with the received current. The voltage controlled oscillator 130 determines the frequency of the clock signal CLK according to the voltage level of the control voltage Vctrl, wherein the frequency of the clock signal CLK is proportional to the voltage level of the control voltage Vctrl. The charge pump circuit 140 determines the magnitude of the received sink current Is according to the frequency of the reference voltage VR and the pulse signal CLK, wherein the current of the sink current Is is proportional to the voltage level of the reference voltage VR and the frequency of the pulse signal CLK.

依據上述,當時脈產生裝置100未穩定時,灌電流Is可能小於或大於固定電流If,並且積分電路120自第一節點A接收到的電流不為零。當灌電流Is小於固定電流If時,控制電壓Vctrl的電壓準位會上升,並且時脈信號CLK的頻率會上升,以致於灌電流Is會上升。當灌電流Is大於固定電流If時,控制電壓Vctrl的電壓準位會下降,並且時脈信號CLK的頻率會下降,以致於灌電流Is會下降。藉此,在時脈產生裝置100穩定時,灌電流Is會收斂至等於固定電流If,亦即積分電路120自第一節點A接收到的電流會為零,以至於控制電壓Vctrl的電壓準位及時脈信號CLK的頻率會保持固定。並且,由於固定電流If不受溫度的影響,因此時脈信號CLK的頻率亦不會受到溫度的影響。According to the above, when the pulse generation device 100 is not stabilized, the sink current Is may be smaller or larger than the fixed current If, and the current received by the integration circuit 120 from the first node A is not zero. When the sink current Is is smaller than the fixed current If, the voltage level of the control voltage Vctrl rises, and the frequency of the clock signal CLK rises, so that the sink current Is rises. When the sink current Is is greater than the fixed current If, the voltage level of the control voltage Vctrl drops, and the frequency of the clock signal CLK decreases, so that the sink current Is decreases. Thereby, when the clock generating device 100 is stable, the sinking current Is converges to be equal to the fixed current If, that is, the current received by the integrating circuit 120 from the first node A is zero, so that the voltage level of the control voltage Vctrl is zero. The frequency of the timely pulse signal CLK will remain fixed. Also, since the fixed current If is not affected by the temperature, the frequency of the clock signal CLK is not affected by the temperature.

另一方面,若固定電流If的電流大小設定為較高的電流時,則灌電流Is於穩定時的電流大小會同步提高,以致於時脈信號CLK的頻率亦會被提高;若固定電流If的電流大小設定為較低的電流時,則灌電流Is於穩定時的電流大小會同步降低,以致於時脈信號CLK的頻率亦會被降低。換言之,時脈信號CLK的頻率會正比於固定電流If的電流大小。On the other hand, if the current of the fixed current If is set to a higher current, the current of the sinking current Is will be increased synchronously, so that the frequency of the clock signal CLK is also increased; if the fixed current If When the current is set to a lower current, the current of the sinking current Is is stabilized at the same time, so that the frequency of the clock signal CLK is also lowered. In other words, the frequency of the clock signal CLK is proportional to the magnitude of the current of the fixed current If.

此外,由於灌電流Is的電流大小受控於時脈信號CLK的頻率,因灌電流Is會由高收斂至等於固定電流If或由低收斂至等於固定電流If為決定於時脈信號CLK的頻率的收斂方向。換言之,當壓控振盪器130的電路結構致使其時脈信號CLK的頻率由高收斂至穩定的頻率時,則灌電流Is會由高收斂至等於固定電流If;當壓控振盪器130的電路結構致使其時脈信號CLK的頻率由低收斂至穩定的頻率時,則灌電流Is會由低收斂至等於固定電流If。In addition, since the current of the sink current Is is controlled by the frequency of the clock signal CLK, the sink current Is will be converged from high to equal to the fixed current If or from low to equal to the fixed current If is determined by the frequency of the clock signal CLK. The direction of convergence. In other words, when the circuit structure of the voltage controlled oscillator 130 causes the frequency of the clock signal CLK to converge from high to a stable frequency, the sink current Is will converge from high to equal to the fixed current If; when the voltage of the voltage controlled oscillator 130 When the structure causes the frequency of the clock signal CLK to converge from a low to a stable frequency, the sink current Is will converge from low to equal to the fixed current If.

圖2為圖1依據本發明一實施例的電流產生單元的系統示意圖。請參照圖1及圖2,在本實施例中,電流產生單元110’包括零溫度係數電流產生電路210及鏡像電流單元220。在本實施例中,鏡像電流單元220至少一P型場效電晶體PM1。零溫度係數電流產生電路210用以輸出隨溫度變化之偏壓Vb。而鏡像電流單元220連接零溫度係數電流產生電路210,以依據偏壓Vb輸出固定電流If。換言之,每一P型場效電晶體PM1的閘極接收偏壓Vb,每一P型場效電晶體PM1的源極(即第一源/汲極端)接收系統電壓VDD,而這些P型場效電晶體PM1的汲極(即第二源/汲極端)輸出固定電流If。2 is a schematic diagram of the system of the current generating unit of FIG. 1 according to an embodiment of the invention. Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, in the present embodiment, the current generating unit 110' includes a zero temperature coefficient current generating circuit 210 and a mirror current unit 220. In this embodiment, the mirror current unit 220 is at least one P-type field effect transistor PM1. The zero temperature coefficient current generating circuit 210 is for outputting a bias voltage Vb that varies with temperature. The mirror current unit 220 is connected to the zero temperature coefficient current generating circuit 210 to output a fixed current If in accordance with the bias voltage Vb. In other words, the gate of each P-type field effect transistor PM1 receives the bias voltage Vb, and the source of each P-type field effect transistor PM1 (ie, the first source/汲 terminal) receives the system voltage VDD, and these P-type fields The drain of the effect transistor PM1 (ie, the second source/汲 terminal) outputs a fixed current If.

進一步來說,由於每一P型場效電晶體PM1的閘極皆接收偏壓Vb,因此每一P型場效電晶體PM1的汲極電流Id1會相同。而固定電流If為每一P型場效電晶體PM1的汲極電流Id1的總和,亦即固定電流If則為每一P型場效電晶體PM1的汲極電流Id1乘以P型場效電晶體PM1的個數。並且,由於偏壓Vb會隨溫度改變P型場效電晶體PM1的閘極電壓,進而使P型場效電晶體PM1受溫度影響的汲極電流Id1會受其閘極電壓的改變而維持不變(亦即不受溫度影響),因此固定電流If亦不受溫度影響。Further, since the gates of each of the P-type field effect transistors PM1 receive the bias voltage Vb, the drain current Id1 of each of the P-type field effect transistors PM1 will be the same. The fixed current If is the sum of the drain current Id1 of each P-type field effect transistor PM1, that is, the fixed current If is the drain current Id1 of each P-type field effect transistor PM1 multiplied by the P-type field effect power. The number of crystals PM1. Moreover, since the bias voltage Vb changes the gate voltage of the P-type field effect transistor PM1 with temperature, the gate current Id1 affected by the temperature of the P-type field effect transistor PM1 is maintained by the change of the gate voltage thereof. Change (ie, not affected by temperature), so the fixed current If is also unaffected by temperature.

Referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, in the embodiment, the zero temperature coefficient current generating circuit 210 includes P-type field effect transistors PM2, PM3, operational amplifiers OP1, PNP bipolar transistors PBT1, PBT2, and resistors R1, R2. , R3.

The negative input terminal of the operational amplifier OP1 is connected to the drain of the P-type field effect transistor PM2, and the positive input terminal of the operational amplifier OP1. Connect the drain of the P-type field effect transistor PM3.

PNP雙載子電晶體PBT1的射極連接P型場效電晶體PM2的汲極,PNP雙載子電晶體的集極及基極連接接地端。PNP雙載子電晶體PBT2的集極及基極連接接地端。電阻R1連接於P型場效電晶體PM2的汲極與接地端之間。電阻R2連接於P型場效電晶體PM3的汲極與PNP雙載子電晶體PBT2的射極之間。電阻R3連接於P型場效電晶體PM3的汲極與接地端之間。The emitter of the PNP bipolar transistor PBT1 is connected to the drain of the P-type field effect transistor PM2, and the collector and base of the PNP bipolar transistor are connected to the ground. The collector and base of the PNP bipolar transistor PBT2 are connected to the ground. The resistor R1 is connected between the drain of the P-type field effect transistor PM2 and the ground. The resistor R2 is connected between the drain of the P-type field effect transistor PM3 and the emitter of the PNP bipolar transistor PBT2. The resistor R3 is connected between the drain of the P-type field effect transistor PM3 and the ground.

依據電路運作,P型場效電晶體PM2及PM3的連接關係如同一電流鏡,而P型場效電晶體PM1的閘極接收運算放大器OP1所輸出的偏壓Vb,因此P型場效電晶體PM1與PM2及PM3的電路運作亦會等同電流鏡一般,亦即P型場效電晶體PM2的汲極電流Id2=P型場效電晶體PM3的汲極電流Id3=P型場效電晶體PM1的汲極輸出的固定電流If。進一步來看,汲極電流Id3=流經電阻R2的電流Ir1+流經電阻R3的電流Ir2。再者,由於Ir1為正溫度係數(PTAT)電流,而Ir2則為負溫度係數(CTAT)電流,因此由電流Ir1及Ir2所合成的汲極電流Id3可被視為溫度無關電流,致使汲極電流Id2及固定電流If可被視為溫度無關電流。According to the circuit operation, the connection relationship between the P-type field effect transistors PM2 and PM3 is the same current mirror, and the gate of the P-type field effect transistor PM1 receives the bias voltage Vb outputted by the operational amplifier OP1, so the P-type field effect transistor The circuit operation of PM1 and PM2 and PM3 will also be equivalent to the current mirror. That is, the drain current of the P-type field effect transistor PM2 is Id2=the gate current of the P-type field effect transistor PM3 is Id3=P type field effect transistor PM1 The fixed current of the bungee output is If. Further, the drain current Id3 = the current Ir1 flowing through the resistor R2 + the current Ir2 flowing through the resistor R3. Furthermore, since Ir1 is a positive temperature coefficient (PTAT) current and Ir2 is a negative temperature coefficient (CTAT) current, the drain current Id3 synthesized by the currents Ir1 and Ir2 can be regarded as a temperature-independent current, resulting in a drain The current Id2 and the fixed current If can be regarded as temperature independent currents.

圖4為圖1依據本發明另一實施例的電流產生單元的電路示意圖。請參照圖1及圖4,在本實施例中,電流產生單元110”包括阻抗單元410及420。阻抗單元410連接系統電壓VDD,而阻抗單元420串聯連接阻抗單元410並且輸出固定電流If。在此,阻抗單元410的阻抗值具有正溫度係數,亦即溫度越高,阻抗單元410的阻抗值會越高,溫度越低,阻抗單元410的阻抗值會越低,而阻抗單元420的阻抗值具有低溫度係數。因此,阻抗單元420輸出的固定電流If會受阻抗單元410及420的溫度係數相反而相互補償,以致於固定電流If會不受溫度影響。其中,阻抗單元410可視為一正溫度係數電路,阻抗單元420可視為一負溫度係數電路。並且,在最佳的狀態下,阻抗單元410之溫度係數的絕對值與阻抗單元420之溫度係數的絕對值為相似甚或相同。4 is a circuit diagram of the current generating unit of FIG. 1 according to another embodiment of the present invention.

There is a low temperature coefficient. Therefore, the fixed current If outputted by the impedance unit 420 is mutually compensated by the temperature coefficients of the impedance units 410 and 420, so that the fixed current If is not affected by the temperature, wherein the impedance unit 410 can be regarded as a positive The temperature coefficient circuit, the impedance unit 420 can be regarded as a negative temperature coefficient circuit, and, in an optimum state, the absolute value of the temperature coefficient of the impedance unit 410 is similar or even the same as the absolute value of the temperature coefficient of the impedance unit 420.

In the present embodiment, the impedance unit 410 having a positive temperature coefficient is realized through the resistor R4, and the impedance unit 420 having a negative temperature coefficient is realized through the P/N interface of the emitter and the base in the PNP bipolar transistor PBT3, but It is not limited to this in other embodiments, and can be designed by a person skilled in the art.

The impedance unit 520 includes a PNP bipolar transistor PBT4, and the difference is that the impedance unit 520 is connected to the impedance unit. Between 510 and ground.

依據上述,由於阻抗單元510及520溫度係數不同的關係,致使P型場效電晶體PM4的汲極電流Id4可視為不受溫度影響的電流,並且在電流鏡的作用下,P型場效電晶體PM5的汲極電流Id5亦可視為不受溫度影響的電流。而固定電流If則為每一P型場效電晶體PM5的汲極電流Id5乘以P型場效電晶體PM5的個數。According to the above, due to the different temperature coefficients of the impedance units 510 and 520, the drain current Id4 of the P-type field effect transistor PM4 can be regarded as a current that is not affected by temperature, and under the action of the current mirror, the P-type field effect power The drain current Id5 of the crystal PM5 can also be regarded as a current that is not affected by temperature.

Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 6, in the embodiment, the integration circuit 120 includes a resistor R6 and a capacitor C1.

The switch SW4 is connected between the second terminal C2b of the capacitor C2 and the positive input terminal of the operational amplifier OP3. Here, it is assumed that the switches SW1 and SW3 are turned on when the clock signal CLK is at the high voltage level (ie, the first level), and the switches SW2 and SW4 are turned on when the clock signal CLK is at the low voltage level (ie, the second level).
