Problems solved by technology

However, in the existing potential pull-up circuit, when the I / O port inputs a low level, a current will be formed between the power supply VCC and the I / O port through the potential pull-up circuit, resulting in power consumption. To reduce power consumption It is necessary to increase the resistance or increase the gate length of the NMOS transistor, but this will greatly increase the area of ​​the potential pull-up circuit, and there are more serious contradictions: if the drive capability of the I / O port is required to be strong, and the response frequency High, the impedance of the potential pull-up circuit will be small. In this case, if the I / O port inputs a low level, the current generated from the power supply VCC to the I / O port through the potential pull-up circuit will be large, and the power consumption will inevitably be great
The existing potential pull-down circuit also has the same disadvantages as the potential pull-up circuit. Obviously, the existing potential pull-up and pull-down circuits are not suitable for use in low-power, high-integration integrated circuits

Abstract

The invention discloses a potential pull-up circuit and a pull-down circuit of an I / O port of an integrated circuit. The potential pull-up circuit outputs high level when no signal is input, thus realizing level pull-up function of the I / O port and having strong noise interference resistance; whether signals are input or not, zero static power consumption can be realized; the driving capability and frequency characteristic of the flexibly-regulated I / O port can be realized by regulating the current capability of a first inverter and a second inverter which are the driving stage of the whole circuit; the potential pull-down circuit outputs low level when no signal is input, thus realizing the pull-down function of the I / O port and having strong noise interference resistance; whether signals are input or not, zero static power consumption is realized; and the driving capability and frequency characteristic of the flexibly-regulated I / O port can be realized by regulating the current capability of a third inverter and a fourth inverter which are the driving stage of the whole circuit.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a potential pull-up and pull-down circuit, in particular to a potential pull-up circuit and pull-down circuit of an I / O port of an integrated circuit. Background technique [0002] The I / O ports of many integrated circuits need to set a default level, and keep the pull-up or pull-down of the potential when there is no signal input. A simple application of the existing potential pull-up is formed by connecting a fixed resistor to the power supply VCC at the I / O port, and a simple application of the potential pull-down is to connect a fixed resistor to the ground GND at the I / O port In this potential pull-up and pull-down circuit, MOS transistors can also be used instead of fixed resistors, such as Figure 1a The potential pull-up circuit shown and Figure 1b Potential pull-down circuit shown. Figure 1a The shown potential pull-up circuit includes an NMOS transistor N, the drain and the gate of the NMOS transistor N are connect...
