Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of integrated circuits, and in particular relates to a negative temperature drift bandgap reference circuit suitable for a logarithmic amplifier with a large dynamic range. Background Art

[0002] The bandgap reference circuit is one of the most common circuit modules in integrated circuit chips. Almost all types of chips are inseparable from the bandgap reference circuit. The core idea of ​​the bandgap reference circuit is to offset the changes caused by temperature by reasonably configuring materials or circuits with positive temperature coefficients and negative temperature coefficients, thereby obtaining a constant that is basically independent of temperature.

[0003] In related technologies, for large dynamic range logarithmic amplifiers, the performance of indicators such as intercept, slope, dynamic range, and logarithmic consistency error under three temperatures is very important. The performance of the rectifier determines the slope and logarithmic consistency error. Under conditions of -55℃ to 125℃, the bias provided by the conventional zero-drift bandgap reference circuit will cause the temperature characteristics to deteriorate, thereby worsening the slope and logarithmic consistency error.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to improve the defects in the prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to solve the above problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a negative temperature drift bandgap reference circuit suitable for a large dynamic range logarithmic amplifier. The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0008] The reference core circuit includes multiple transistors and multiple resistors. The transistors are electrically connected to the resistors. The reference core circuit is used to provide a reference voltage with a negative temperature coefficient to provide a bias for the rectifier, so that the DC bias current temperature coefficient of the rectifier is extremely low under the conditions of -55℃ to 125℃.

[0009] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0010] The present invention provides a negative temperature drift bandgap reference circuit suitable for a large dynamic range logarithmic amplifier. Compared with a conventional zero temperature coefficient bandgap reference circuit, the present invention is more suitable for a large dynamic range logarithmic amplifier, so that the large dynamic range logarithmic amplifier has excellent temperature characteristics of slope and logarithmic consistency error.

[0011] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0016] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific examples, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.

[0017] For related technologies, see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This diagram illustrates the main structure of a high-dynamic-range logarithmic amplifier in existing technology. It employs six limiting amplifiers connected in series, with a rectifier connected to the output of each limiting amplifier stage. The rectifier output currents are summed and converted to an output voltage via a transimpedance output stage. This structure achieves a linear relationship between the output voltage and the input power.

[0018] For large dynamic range logarithmic amplifiers, the intercept, slope, dynamic range, and logarithmic consistency error are very important under three temperatures. The performance of the rectifier determines the slope and logarithmic consistency error. The function of the rectifier is to detect the power information of the signal to be measured and output the corresponding output differential current. Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a rectifier structure in the prior art. NPN tubes Q1, Q2, and Q3 form a common-emitter differential pair structure. The bases of Q1 and Q2 are connected to the positive and negative terminals of the differential-mode input signal, respectively. The base of Q3 is connected to the common-mode input signal. The emitters of Q1, Q2, and Q3 are connected to the collector of Q4. The base of Q4 is connected to the bias voltage Vbias. Therefore, Vbias, Q4, and R1 form a tail current source I TAIL ,exist:

[0019]

[0020] The collector of Q1 generates current I1, the collector of Q2 generates current I2, and the collector of Q3 generates current I3. The output differential current ΔI is proportional to the differential input voltage V ID The relationship is:

[0021]

[0022] Among them, ΔI is the output differential current of the rectifier, which has an approximately exponential relationship with the differential input voltage; in the subsequent stage, the output differential current of all rectifiers is converted into output voltage through the transresistance output stage. It can be found that the tail current I TAIL Therefore, under the condition of -55℃~125℃, the bias provided by the conventional zero-drift bandgap reference circuit will cause I TAIL The temperature characteristics deteriorate, which in turn deteriorates the slope and logarithmic consistency error.

[0023] In order to overcome the disadvantage that the conventional zero-drift bandgap reference circuit may deteriorate the temperature characteristics of the slope and logarithmic consistency error of a large dynamic range logarithmic amplifier, the present invention provides a negative temperature drift bandgap reference circuit suitable for a large dynamic range logarithmic amplifier, which provides a tail current bias for the rectifier so that the temperature coefficient of the tail current is extremely low under the conditions of -55°C to 125°C, thereby obtaining excellent temperature characteristics of the logarithmic slope and logarithmic consistency error.

[0039] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the fourth transistor Q4, the sixth transistor Q6, the ninth transistor Q9 and the tenth transistor Q10 are PNP transistors.

[0040] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the fifth transistor Q5 is a diode-connected PNP transistor.

[0041] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the second transistor Q2 is a diode-connected NPN transistor.

[0042] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the driving process of the negative temperature drift bandgap reference circuit provided in this embodiment includes:

[0043] For the startup circuit 10, when the enable signal Enable is at a low level, no current flows through the first resistor R1, and the first transistor Q1, the second transistor Q2, and the third transistor Q3 are all non-conductive, and the output startup current I4 is almost zero, which cannot drive the fourth transistor Q4. The fourth transistor Q4 is a power transistor, that is, the entire reference circuit cannot work normally.

[0044] When the enable signal Enable is at a high level, current flows through the first resistor R1, the third transistor Q3 is turned on, and the startup current I4 flows through the fifth resistor R5, causing the fifth resistor R5 to generate a huge voltage difference, causing the fourth transistor Q4, the tenth transistor Q10 and the eleventh transistor Q11 to be turned on, forming a circuit path. Next, the twelfth transistor Q12 is turned on, drawing current from the fixed voltage end to flow through the tenth resistor R10. As I R10 gradually increases, the seventh transistor Q7 is turned on, I CQ7 The current is copied to I by the current mirror formed by the fifth transistor Q5 and the sixth transistor Q6. CQ8 , the eighth transistor Q8 is turned on, and the entire reference circuit works normally. At this time, the output reference voltage V REF for:

[0045] V REF =V BEQ7 +(I R10 +I EQ7 +I R11 )R 12 (1);

[0046] Among them, V REF is the reference voltage, V BEQ7is the voltage difference between the base and emitter of the seventh transistor Q7, I R10 is the base current of the seventh transistor Q7 and the eighth transistor Q8, I EQ7 is the emitter current of the seventh transistor Q7, I R11 is the emitter current of the eighth transistor Q8, R 12 is the resistance value of the twelfth resistor R12;

[0047] Because I R10 Also serves as the base current of the seventh transistor Q7 and the eighth transistor Q8, and I CQ7 =I CQ8 , then I EQ7 =I EQ8 =I R11 ,in,

[0048]

[0049] In the above formula, n is the area of ​​the effective emitter region of the eighth transistor Q8, which is n times the area of ​​the effective emitter region of the seventh transistor Q7.

[0050] Substituting formula (2) into formula (1), we get formula (3), which is expressed as follows:

[0051]

[0052] By adjusting the ratio of the tenth resistor R10 and the twelfth resistor R12, a negative temperature coefficient output reference voltage V is further obtained on the conventional zero temperature coefficient reference voltage. REF At the same time, the existence of the tenth resistor R10, the eleventh resistor R11 and the twelfth resistor R12 can make V REF The temperature coefficient can be adjusted more accurately.

[0053] Furthermore, in V REF =V BIAS Under the condition of , formula (3) is substituted into the following formula (4) to obtain formula (5), which is expressed as follows:

[0054]

[0055]

[0056] When designing the circuit of this application, the seventh transistor Q7 adopts an NPN transistor. The temperature derivative of formula (5) is taken. By reasonably adjusting the temperature coefficient of the numerator to match the resistance temperature coefficient under the process, the rectifier tail current I with a low temperature coefficient can be obtained. TAIL See Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 The tail current source I provided by the embodiment of the present invention isTAIL A structural diagram of a temperature curve simulation diagram, I TAIL At 25°C, the current is 65uA, and under the conditions of -55°C to 125°C, it only changes by 2.2uA, meeting the requirements of using a logarithmic amplifier with a large dynamic range.

[0057] In summary, the negative temperature drift bandgap reference circuit provided in this embodiment is more suitable for a large dynamic range logarithmic amplifier than a conventional zero temperature coefficient bandgap reference circuit, so that the large dynamic range logarithmic amplifier has excellent temperature characteristics of slope and logarithmic consistency error.
