Abstract

The invention discloses a voltage-current converter which comprises a super source follower and a current mirror circuit. Output resistance can be reduced by combining the super source follower and the current mirror circuit, current is fed back to the super source follower by the current mirror circuit to stabilize the super source follower so as to realize the lower resistance of the output end of the voltage-current converter, and therefore, very high power rejection ratio can be achieved, and power noise can be inhibited very well. The voltage-current converter can omit an external low dropout voltage regulator circuit required in a traditional structure, save a large area, achieve better power noise inhibition effect and improve PLL (Phase Locking Loop) vibration.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a voltage-current converter, in particular to a voltage-current converter for a voltage-controlled oscillator. Background technique [0002] As is well known in the art, a voltage-to-current converter is used to convert an input voltage into an output current proportional thereto. For example, a voltage-current converter is usually used in a voltage-controlled oscillator (generally abbreviated as VCO) in a phase-locked loop circuit. [0003] figure 1 A circuit diagram of a voltage-to-current converter often used in voltage-controlled oscillators. Such as figure 1 As shown, the traditional voltage-current converter mainly realizes the conversion of voltage to current through an N-type MOS transistor and a current mirror, which includes a current mirror 10 and an N-type MOS transistor M8, and the current mirror 10 is composed of a P-type MOS Transistors (P1, P2), according to their working principle, the output curren...
