Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of electronic circuit technology, and more specifically, to a three-state inverter circuit and a bus system. Background Technology

[0002] A tri-state logic gate is a digital logic gate with three output states. Due to its flexibility, resource sharing, and reduced signal interference, tri-state logic gates are widely used in bus systems, multiplexers, and digital circuit design. A tri-state logic gate only requires one logic gate to drive a node to a strong logic state; other logic gates associated with it will not cause the node to become floating, and the level toggling of other logic gates will not affect the logic output of the tri-state logic gate. However, the level toggling of other logic gates generates dynamic power consumption, which will seriously affect the reliability and stability of the tri-state logic gate circuit characteristics. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a tri-state logic gate with reduced power consumption.

[0003] In related technologies, tri-state logic gates are often implemented by combining logic gates and transmission gates. By connecting a transmission gate to the output of the logic gate, the transmission gate is turned on by a control signal applied to the control terminal of the transmission gate, and then the non-tri-state output of the logic gate is transmitted to the tri-state output node.

[0004] However, in tri-state logic gates based on related technologies, when the transmission gate is turned off under the action of a low-level control signal, the circuit is in tri-state mode. The switching of the input and output levels of the logic gate generates dynamic power consumption, which in turn leads to a decrease in the stability and reliability of the circuit. Therefore, the related technology solutions suffer from poor stability and reliability. Utility Model Content

[0048] Currently, tri-state logic gates are often implemented by combining logic gates and transmission gates. A transmission gate is connected to the output of the logic gate, and its on / off state is controlled by a control signal applied to its control terminal. When the transmission gate is on, the non-tri-state output of the logic gate is transmitted to the tri-state output node. However, in this type of tri-state logic gate, when the transmission gate is cut off under a low-level control signal, the circuit is in tri-state mode. The switching between the input and output levels of the logic gate generates dynamic power consumption, which reduces the stability and reliability of the circuit.

[0049] To address this, this application provides a tri-state inverter circuit. The circuit comprises a transmission gate and a logic module, forming a tri-state inverter. The first control terminal of the transmission gate and the first terminal of the logic module are both connected to a power supply voltage. The input terminal of the transmission gate and the first terminal of the logic module are both connected to a control signal. The output terminal of the transmission gate is connected to the third terminal of the logic module. The fourth terminal of the logic module is connected to an input logic level. The fifth terminal of the logic module and the second control terminal of the transmission gate are both grounded. The sixth terminal of the logic module serves as the output terminal of the tri-state inverter circuit. The transmission gate is turned on when the control signal is high, outputting a high-level signal to the logic module. Under the combined action of this high-level signal, the control signal, and the input logic level, the logic module outputs a target level that is inversely phase to the input logic level. The transmission gate is also turned off when the control signal is low, leaving the logic module floating under the influence of the control signal and the input logic level, thus placing the tri-state inverter circuit in a high-impedance state. This reduces the dynamic power consumption of the tri-state logic gate, thereby improving its circuit performance.

[0050] Figure 1 Here is a schematic diagram of an existing three-state logic gate. (See attached diagram) Figure 1 Existing tri-state logic gates consist of logic gates and transmission gates. The logic gates function as inverters, with their control terminals receiving the input logic level and their input terminals receiving the power supply voltage. The output of the logic gate is connected to a transmission gate, whose two control terminals are inverted. When the transmission gate is turned on by the control signal, it can transmit the non-tri-state output of the logic gate to the tri-state transmission node. Conversely, when the transmission gate is turned off by the control signal, the circuit is in tri-state mode. The level switching between the input and output logic levels generates dynamic power consumption. However, changes in the input logic level do not affect the circuit's logical result. Therefore, this dynamic power consumption is not beneficial to the circuit and can even degrade its stability.

[0051] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, provides a detailed explanation of the tri-state inverter circuit and bus system provided in the embodiments of this application.

[0052] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a three-state inverter circuit provided in this application is shown below. Figure 2 This application provides a three-state inverter circuit 10, which includes a transmission gate 101 and a logic module 102.

[0053] Optionally, the transmission gate 101 is a logic gate composed of N-type metal-oxide-semiconductor transistors and P-type metal-oxide-semiconductor transistors connected in parallel. The source of the N-type metal-oxide-semiconductor transistor in the transmission gate 101 is connected to the source of the P-type metal-oxide-semiconductor transistor, and the drain of the N-type metal-oxide-semiconductor transistor in the transmission gate 101 is connected to the drain of the P-type metal-oxide-semiconductor transistor. Based on the complementary characteristics of the N-type metal-oxide-semiconductor transistor and the P-type metal-oxide-semiconductor transistor, the transmission gate 101 can provide a low-impedance path across the entire signal voltage range, thereby reducing the power consumption of the tri-state inverter circuit 10.

[0054] The first control terminal of the transmission gate 101 and the first terminal of the logic module 102 are both used to connect to the power supply voltage. The input terminal of the transmission gate 101 and the second terminal of the logic module 102 are both used to connect to the control signal. The output terminal of the transmission gate 101 is connected to the third terminal of the logic module 102.

[0055] Optionally, the control signal is a high or low level signal. The control signal is used to control the on / off state of the transmission gate 101 and the on / off state of the second terminal of the logic module 102. For example, the control signal can be a high level 1 or a low level 0. The power supply voltage is provided by an external power supply. The power supply voltage can be 5V, 10V, etc., and this application does not make specific limitations on it.

[0056] Optionally, the tri-state inverter circuit 10 refers to the internal circuitry of a tri-state inverter. Essentially, the tri-state inverter circuit 10 is an inverter that can operate in three states: high level, low level, and high impedance. The transmission gate 101 is turned on or off by a control signal, which can be considered the enable signal for the tri-state inverter circuit 10. It's worth noting that when the output state of the tri-state inverter circuit 10 is high impedance, the output is effectively disconnected. In this state, the tri-state inverter circuit 10 outputs neither a high nor a low level signal, and the high impedance state has no effect on subsequent circuits.

[0057] Optionally, the input terminal of transmission gate 101 is used to receive control signals, the first control terminal of transmission gate 101 is used to receive power supply voltage, the second control terminal of transmission gate 101 is grounded, and the output terminal of transmission gate 101 is connected to the third terminal of logic module 102. Transmission gate 101 is considered to be embedded in the inverter, and transmission gate 101 can reduce the power consumption of the inverter.

[0058] The fourth terminal of logic module 102 is used to input the logic level. The fifth terminal of logic module 102 and the second control terminal of transmission gate 101 are both grounded. The sixth terminal of logic module 102 serves as the output terminal of tri-state inverter circuit 10.

[0059] Optionally, the input logic level refers to the input level signal of the tri-state inverter circuit 10. The input logic level can be a high level (1) or a low level (0). The input logic level is unrelated to the control signal. The input logic level can be the same as the control signal or the opposite of the control signal. This application does not make any specific limitations on this.

[0060] The transmission gate 101 is turned on when the control signal is high and inputs a high level to the logic module 102. Under the action of the high level, the control signal and the input logic level, the logic module 102 outputs a target level, which is inversely phase with the input logic level.

[0061] Optionally, when the control signal is high level 1, transmission gate 101 is turned on, and transmission gate 101 outputs a high-level signal to the third terminal of logic module 102. If the input logic level is also high level 1, the target level output by logic module 102 is low level 0; conversely, if the input logic level is low level 0, the target level output by logic module 102 is high level 1. It is worth noting that the target level refers to the actual output level signal of the tri-state inverter circuit 10. The target level is out of phase with the input logic level received at the input terminal of the tri-state inverter circuit 10, that is, the tri-state inverter circuit 10 can achieve phase flipping through transmission gate 101 and logic module 102.

[0062] The transmission gate 101 is also used to cut off when the control signal is low, and the logic module 102 is left floating under the influence of the control signal and the input logic level.

[0063] Optionally, when the control signal is low level 0, the transmission gate 101 is turned off. At this time, the output state of the transmission gate 101 is a high impedance state, that is, there is no signal transmission between the output terminal of the transmission gate 101 and the third terminal of the logic module 102. Regardless of whether the input logic level is high level 1 or low level 0, the source of the transistor in the tri-state inverter circuit 10 is floating, and the output state of the tri-state inverter circuit 10 is in a high impedance state, that is, the tri-state inverter circuit 10 neither outputs high level 1 nor low level 0.

[0064] In this embodiment, a tri-state inverter circuit is constructed using a transmission gate and a logic module to enable the inverter to operate in tri-state mode. The first control terminal of the transmission gate and the first terminal of the logic module are both connected to a power supply voltage. The input terminal of the transmission gate and the second terminal of the logic module are both connected to a control signal. The output terminal of the transmission gate is connected to the third terminal of the logic module. The fourth terminal of the logic module is connected to an input logic level. The fifth terminal of the logic module and the second control terminal of the transmission gate are both grounded. The sixth terminal of the logic module serves as the output terminal of the tri-state inverter circuit. When the control signal received by the transmission gate is high, the transmission gate conducts and sends a high-level signal to the third terminal of the logic module. Under the combined action of the output signal of the transmission gate, the control signal, and the input logic level, the logic module outputs a target level that is opposite in phase to the input logic level to the subsequent circuit. When the control signal received by the transmission gate is low, the transmission gate is turned off, and the logic module is left floating under the combined action of the control signal and the input logic level, thus the tri-state inverter circuit enters tri-state mode. Specifically, the transmission gate operates and the tri-state inverter circuit undergoes level switching only when the control signal is high. When the control signal is low, the transmission gate is cut off, and the tri-state inverter circuit no longer performs meaningless level switching, generating unnecessary power consumption. In this way, the dynamic power consumption of the tri-state logic gate can be reduced, thereby improving the circuit performance of the tri-state logic gate.

The first input terminal of the first logic gate 1021 is used to connect to the power supply voltage. The first output terminal of the first logic gate 1021 is connected to the first input terminal of the second logic gate 1022. The second output terminal of the first logic gate 1021 is connected to the second input terminal of the second logic gate 1022. The second input terminal of the first logic gate 1021 is grounded.

[0067] The first control terminal of the second logic gate 1022 is used to receive control signals. The second control terminal of the second logic gate 1022 is connected to the output terminal of the transmission gate 101. The output terminal of the second logic gate 1022 serves as the output terminal of the tri-state inverter circuit 10.

[0068] Optionally, the first logic gate 1021 is used to turn on or off under the control of the input logic level, and the second logic gate 1022 is used to turn on or off under the combined action of the output signal of the transmission gate 101 and the control signal. The output signal of the second logic gate 1022 serves as the output signal of the entire tri-state inverter circuit 10.

[0070] The control terminals of the first conducting component 211 and the second conducting component 212 are both used to connect to the input logic level. The input terminal of the first conducting component 211 is used to connect to the power supply voltage. The output terminal of the first conducting component 211 is connected to the first input terminal of the second logic gate 1022.

[0071] The output terminal of the second conducting component 212 is connected to the second input terminal of the second logic gate 1022, and the input terminal of the second conducting component 212 is grounded.

[0072] Optionally, the first conducting component 211 and the second conducting component 212 are composed of conducting components with complementary characteristics. Both the first conducting component 211 and the second conducting component 212 are controlled by the input logic level. When the first conducting component 211 is turned on, the second conducting component 212 is turned off; conversely, when the first conducting component 211 is turned off, the second conducting component 212 is turned on.

[0073] In one alternative implementation, see [link to implementation details]. Figure 5 The first conducting component 211 in the tri-state inverter circuit 10 provided in this application embodiment includes: a first P-type metal-oxide-semiconductor transistor 2111.

[0075] In one alternative implementation, see [link to implementation details]. Figure 5 The second conducting component 212 in the tri-state inverter circuit 10 provided in this application embodiment includes: a first N-type metal-oxide-semiconductor transistor 2121.
