Embodiment Construction

[0025] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the invention, all other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the protection scope of the invention.

[0026] see image 3 , the invention provides a technical solution: a low-cost repeatable trimming method applied in integrated circuits, including the following process:

[0027] S1. The two input pins of the operational amplifier are multiplexed by the switch. The control signal of the switch controls the opening and closing of the switch through the trimming pad P1. On the one hand, the switch is turned off without adding a signal to the trimming pad. A pull-down signal is added to th...

Abstract

The invention discloses a low cost repeatable trimming method applied to an integrated circuit; the method comprises the following steps: S1, using a switch to reuse two input pins of an operational amplifier, and using a switch control signal to open and close the switch through trimming pads P1; S2, adding shift registers of the same number according to the trimming bit number, and reusing positive / negative input pins of the operational amplifier to provide a clock signal and a data signal of the shift register; S3, adding a control circuit of signals B0-B4. The method only needs two trimming pads to trim all bits, thus saving a chip area; the method can repeatedly repair; if errors happen in the trimming process, the trimming process can be restarted; the method only needs to trim 4 times to reach the user needed trimming precision no matter how many bits need to be trimmed, thus greatly reducing trimming testing time and trimming cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of circuit trimming, in particular to a low-cost repeatable trimming method applied in integrated circuits. Background technique [0002] Take operational amplifiers as an example. Operational amplifiers are widely used in consumer electronics devices, communication equipment, industrial control systems and medical devices. In many application fields, there are strict requirements on the accuracy of the input offset voltage of operational amplifiers. Some applications require operational The amplifier has a sufficiently small input offset voltage. Some applications require the operational amplifier to have a relatively fixed input offset voltage. Due to process changes and mismatch of components in integrated circuits, each chip in reality will have a different input. Therefore, it is necessary to add an input offset voltage trimming circuit in the design of the operational amplifier, and adjust the input of...
