Abstract

The invention discloses an amplitude-limiting conversion circuit applicable to a subthreshold region. A conventional inverter working in a superthreshold region is provided; an amplitude-limiting inverter working in the subthreshold region is provided; and the input end of the amplitude-limiting inverter is connected with the output end of the conventional inverter. The amplitude-limiting conversion circuit applicable to the subthreshold region is used for converting an input signal in the superthreshold region into an output signal in a subthreshold region, so that the signal amplitude-limiting conversion function from the superthreshold to the subthreshold is realized. The amplitude-limiting conversion circuit can serve as an interface module between a superthreshold circuit module and a subthreshold circuit module and can quickly fulfill the aim of converting the superthreshold signal amplitude into the subthreshold signal amplitude.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a limit conversion circuit suitable for a sub-threshold region. The circuit converts an input signal in a super-threshold region into an output signal in a sub-threshold region, thereby realizing the conversion of signal amplitude, and belongs to the technical field of integrated circuit design. Background technique [0002] The multi-supply voltage mode is widely used in low-power SOCs, which minimizes the total power consumption of the system by effectively configuring the power supply voltage of each functional module. However, amplitude conversion is required for signal transmission between different modules in a multi-supply voltage system. Traditionally, the conversion of a high-amplitude signal to a low-amplitude signal is performed by an inverter. Unfortunately, with the further reduction of the power supply voltage, especially after entering the sub-threshold region, the driving capability of the MOS transistor is fur...
