For example, for some automated equipment, after mechanical installation and electrical wiring are completed, the mechatronic equipment faces the step of powering on.

[0045] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the features in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 1 The power-on detection circuit includes an input unit, a switching unit, and an output unit 120 connected in sequence, wherein...

[0047] The input unit includes a first input power supply 111 and a second input power supply 112, and the switching unit includes a first MOS transistor PMOS1 and a second MOS transistor NMOS.

[0048] The input unit in this embodiment provides an input power supply, which can provide voltage input to the power-on detection circuit in this embodiment. Specifically, the second input power supply 112 in this embodiment can provide a stable voltage to the powered device, such as a chip, that may be connected in this embodiment. When the power supply requirements of the powered device, such as the chip, change, a new power supply needs to be introduced, namely the first input power supply 111 in this embodiment. The power-on detection of the first and second power supplies can be easily and quickly realized through the switching unit and output unit 120 in this embodiment. Generally, the rated supply voltage of the powered device, such as the chip, is 1.8V. In this embodiment, the second input power supply 112 with a rated voltage of 1.8V can be selected accordingly. Correspondingly, when introducing a new power supply, the first input power supply 111 with a rated voltage switchable between 1.8V and 3.3V can be selected.

[0049] Considering the low cost, low power dissipation, and high efficiency of MOSFETs, they are selected to form the switching unit in this embodiment. Specifically, the switching unit consists of one PMOS and one NMOS transistor; the first MOSFET is a PMOS and the second MOSFET is an NMOS. The switching on and off of the unit affects the power-on detection signal of the output unit 120.

[0050] In this embodiment, the specific connection relationship between each MOS transistor and each input power supply is as follows: the drain of the first MOS transistor PMOS1 is connected to the gate of the second MOS transistor NMOS, the source of the second MOS transistor NMOS is grounded, the first input power supply 111 is connected to the source of the first MOS transistor PMOS1, and the second input power supply 112 is connected to the drain of the second MOS transistor NMOS and the output unit 120 respectively.

[0051] The first MOS transistor PMOS1 and the second MOS transistor NMOS change their on / off states according to the voltage signals provided by the first input power supply 111 and the second input power supply 112. The output unit 120 is used to output a power-on detection signal according to the on / off state of the second MOS transistor NMOS.

[0052] Please refer to Figure 2 In one possible implementation, the output unit 120 includes a first inverter U1 and a second inverter U2;

[0053] The input terminal of the first inverter U1 is connected to the second input power supply 112, and the output terminal of the first inverter U1 is connected to the input terminal of the second inverter U2.

[0054] Specifically, if the output terminal of the first inverter U1 outputs a high-level signal, then the output terminal of the second inverter U2 outputs a low-level signal; if the output terminal of the first inverter U1 outputs a low-level signal, then the output terminal of the second inverter U2 outputs a high-level signal.

[0055] In this embodiment, an inverter can be selected to form the output unit 120. The power-on status of the first power supply and the second power supply in the above embodiment can be determined by the high-level signal or low-level signal output by the inverter.

[0056] For example, if the second input power supply 112 is 1.8V and power is turned on, the second MOS transistor NMOS is in the off state. That is, the input terminal of the first inverter U1 is a high-level signal. Correspondingly, the output terminal of the first inverter U1 and the input terminal of the second inverter U2 are both low-level signals, and the output terminal of the second inverter U2 is a high-level signal.

[0057] If the gate of the first MOSFET PMOS1 is connected to a 1.8V power supply, and the first input power supply 111 is set to 1.8V and powered on, the first MOSFET PMOS1 is in the off state, and the second MOSFET NMOS connected to the first MOSFET PMOS1 is also in the off state. At this time, the output of the first inverter U1 outputs a low-level signal, and the output of the second inverter U2 outputs a high-level signal. If the first input power supply 111 is set to 3.3V and powered on, the first MOSFET PMOS1 is in the on state, and the second MOSFET NMOS connected to the first MOSFET PMOS1 is also in the on state. At this time, the output of the first inverter U1 outputs a high-level signal, and the output of the second inverter U2 outputs a low-level signal.

[0058] Optionally, the input unit further includes a third input power supply 113, and the switching unit further includes a third MOS transistor PMOS2, wherein the third MOS transistor PMOS2 is a P-channel MOS transistor;

[0059] The third input power supply 113 is connected to the gate of the third MOS transistor PMOS2;

[0060] The source of the third MOS transistor PMOS2 is connected to the gate of the first MOS transistor PMOS1, and the drain of the third MOS transistor PMOS2 is connected to the drain of the first MOS transistor PMOS1.

[0061] In this embodiment, by introducing a third input power supply 113 and a third MOS transistor PMOS2, the gate voltage of the first MOS transistor PMOS1 can be controlled, and then the on / off state of the three MOS transistors can be accurately realized through the voltage signals output by the three input power supplies.

[0062] As can be seen from the above analysis, the power-on detection circuit in this embodiment includes an input unit, a switching unit, and an output unit connected in sequence. The input unit includes a first input power supply and a second input power supply, and the switching unit includes two MOSFETs. The two MOSFETs can change their on / off state according to the voltage signals provided by the two input power supplies. The output unit can output a power-on detection signal according to the on / off state of the MOSFETs, realizing power-on detection of multiple voltage values. Furthermore, the circuit design is simple and the cost is low.

[0063] Considering the addition of a first input power supply 111 to the existing second input power supply 112 for detection, in order to protect the components in the power-on detection circuit, especially the MOSFETs, from the risk of breakdown.

[0064] In one possible implementation, the power-on detection circuit further includes a step-down circuit 130, one end of which is connected to the drain of the first MOS transistor PMOS1, and the other end of which is grounded.

[0065] In this embodiment, by introducing a step-down circuit 130, the protection of the components in the power-on detection circuit can still be achieved even with the addition of a first input power supply 111. A specific step-down circuit 130 will be described in detail below.

[0066] Specifically, the step-down circuit 130 includes a first resistor R1, a second resistor R2, and a third resistor R3 connected in series.

[0067] The first end of the first resistor R1 is connected to the drain of the first MOS transistor PMOS1, the second end of the first resistor R1 is connected in series with the first end of the second resistor R2, and the first end of the second resistor R2 is connected to the second end of the first resistor R1 and the gate of the second MOS transistor NMOS.

[0068] The first end of the third resistor R3 is connected to the second end of the second resistor R2 and the drain of the third MOS transistor PMOS2.

[0069] This embodiment uses the first resistor R1, the second resistor R2, and the third resistor R3 to perform voltage division on the circuit when the first input power supply 111 is introduced. That is, while controlling the on / off state of the first MOSFET PMOS1, the second MOSFET NMOS, and the third MOSFET PMOS2, this embodiment can also protect each MOSFET, effectively preventing the MOSFETs from being broken down and avoiding damage to the components in the power-on detection circuit.

[0070] Additionally, please refer to Figure 3 The power-on detection circuit further includes a diode D, the anode of which is connected to the gate of the third MOS transistor PMOS2, and the cathode of which is connected to the source of the third MOS transistor PMOS2 and the gate of the first MOS transistor PMOS1.

[0071] Diode D serves as electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection, preventing the third MOSFET PMOS2 from being electrostatically damaged. Furthermore, diode D can form a circuit with the parasitic diode in PMOS2, generating a very small current. In this case, diode D and the parasitic diode can be used as resistors. By replacing diode D with different models and / or sizes, the voltage at the source terminal of PMOS2 can be changed, and its on / off state can be controlled by adjusting the voltage at the gate and source terminals.

[0072] It should be noted that, assuming the output voltage of the first input power supply 111 is 3.3V, and the output voltages of the second input power supply 112 and the third input power supply 113 are both 1.8V, and the power-on detection circuit contains only 1.8V components and no 3.3V components, it can be understood that the process withstand voltage of the components in this power-on detection circuit is 1.8V + 1.8V * 10% = 1.98V. In this case, after the output voltage of the first input power supply 111 reaches 1.98V, the output terminal of the first inverter U1 corresponding to the first input power supply 111 should immediately output a high level, so that the power-on detection circuit generates a clamping voltage to protect the circuit nodes connected to the 3.3V power supply from exceeding the withstand voltage value, thereby protecting the 1.8V components in the power-on detection circuit.

[0073] The following examples will provide a detailed description of the specific functions of the power-on detection circuit in the above embodiments:

[0074] Example 1: If the output voltage of the first input power supply 111 is 3.3V, and the output voltages of the second input power supply 112 and the third input power supply 113 are both 1.8V, the first input power supply 111 is powered on first, followed by the second input power supply 112 and the third input power supply 113.

[0075] At this point, when the 3.3V power-on voltage is applied first, the second input power supply 112 and the third input power supply 113, corresponding to the 1.8V voltage, are at a low level. The source voltage of the first MOSFET PMOS1 is greater than its gate voltage, so PMOS1 is turned on. After voltage reduction through the first resistor R1, the voltage at node c is 1.65V, and the voltages at nodes f and a are both at a low level. The third MOSFET PMOS2 is turned on, and the voltages at nodes a, b, and c begin to rise. When the 3.3V power-on voltage increases to 1.98V, the voltage at node c is 0.99V. Since the source of the second MOSFET NMOS is grounded, NMOS is turned on. The input of the first inverter U1, which is connected to the drain of the second MOSFET NMOS, is at a low level, and the output of the first inverter U1 directly outputs a high-level signal.

[0076] When the 3.3V power-on is complete, the source voltage of the first MOSFET PMOS1 is 3.3V. At this time, the voltage at node a must be at least 1.32V to avoid the risk of breakdown. By dividing the voltage through the second resistor R2, the voltage at node a can be made 1.5V. At this time, the two 1.8V power supplies of the second input power supply 112 and the third input power supply 113 start to power on, the potential of node d is high, the third MOSFET PMOS2 is turned off, and by adjusting the size of diode D, the voltage at point F is made 1.62V. The circuit is now powered on, and the output of the first inverter U1 is high.

[0077] Example 2: If the output voltage of the first input power supply 111 is 3.3V, and the output voltages of the second input power supply 112 and the third input power supply 113 are both 1.8V, then the second input power supply 112 and the third input power supply 113 are powered on first, followed by the first input power supply 111.

[0078] After the 1.8V power-on is complete, the gate voltage of the third MOSFET PMOS2 is greater than the source voltage, and PMOS2 is turned off. According to Example 1, the voltage at node f is 1.62V. At this time, the 3.3V power-on begins. When the voltage of the first input power supply 111 approaches 1.62V, due to the threshold voltage, the voltage of the second input power supply 112 is between 1.62V and 1.98V. The first MOSFET PMOS1 turns on, and the voltage at node c causes the second MOSFET NMOS to turn on, resulting in a high-level signal output from the first inverter U1. Furthermore, during the entire power-on process, no node voltage exceeds the withstand voltage of 1.98V, and the power-on detection circuit has no risk of breakdown.

[0079] Example 3: If the output voltage of the first input power supply 111 is 3.3V, and the output voltages of the second input power supply 112 and the third input power supply 113 are both 1.8V, the first input power supply 111, the second input power supply 112 and the third input power supply 113 are powered on simultaneously.

[0080] During the initial power-on phase, the voltage at node d is insufficient to turn on diode D, so the third MOSFET PMOS2 turns on, the voltage at node f is low, and the first MOSFET PMOS1 turns on. When the voltage at node d increases, diode D turns on, the third MOSFET PMOS2 turns off, and the output of the first inverter outputs a high-level signal. Throughout the entire power-on process, no node voltage exceeds the withstand voltage value, and the power-on detection circuit has no risk of breakdown.

[0081] Example 4: If the output voltages of the first input power supply 111, the second input power supply 112, and the third input power supply 113 are all 1.8V, and the three power supplies are powered on simultaneously.

[0082] After power-on, the voltage at node f is 1.62V, which is insufficient to turn on the first MOS transistor PMOS1. The voltage at node c is low, and the output of the second inverter U2 outputs a high-level signal, detecting that the 1.8V power supply has completed power-on. During the entire power-on process, no node voltage exceeds the withstand voltage value, and the power-on detection circuit has no risk of breakdown.

[0083] It should be noted that the output voltage of the first input power supply 111 used in the above example is 3.3V, and the output voltages of the second input power supply 112 and the third input power supply 113 are both 1.8V. These are only for example purposes, and different power supply voltages can be selected according to actual needs.

[0084] Optionally, the power-on detection circuit further includes a protection circuit, which includes a fourth resistor R4, a fifth resistor R5, and a sixth resistor R6.

[0085] One end of the fourth resistor R4 is connected to the second input power supply 112, and the other end of the fourth resistor R4 is connected to the drain of the second MOS transistor NMOS.

[0086] One end of the fifth resistor R5 is connected to the second end of the third resistor R3, and the other end of the fifth resistor R5 is grounded.

[0087] One end of the sixth resistor R6 is connected to the third input power supply 113, and the other end of the sixth resistor R6 is connected to the gate of the third MOS transistor PMOS2.

[0088] In this embodiment, the sixth resistor R6 can serve as the gate resistor for the third MOSFET PMOS2, rapidly attenuating oscillations generated in the gate circuit. Furthermore, if a small-value resistor is chosen for R6, the switching speed of the third MOSFET PMOS2 can be accelerated. The fifth resistor R5, when the second MOSFET NMOS is off, can limit the drain of the first MOSFET PMOS1 to a low level. The fourth resistor R4 can protect the second MOSFET NMOS when it is connected to the second input power supply.

[0089] Optionally, the protection circuit further includes a seventh resistor R7, one end of which is connected to the source of the second MOSFET NMOS, and the other end of which is grounded. Here, VSS represents the grounding terminals of the fifth and seventh resistors.

[0090] In summary, the power-on detection circuit in this embodiment includes an input unit, a switching unit, and an output unit connected in sequence. The input unit includes a first input power supply and a second input power supply, and the switching unit includes two MOSFETs. The two MOSFETs can change their on / off state according to the voltage signals provided by the two input power supplies. The output unit can output a power-on detection signal according to the on / off state of the MOSFETs, realizing power-on detection of various voltage values. Furthermore, the circuit design is simple, the cost is low, and by limiting the withstand voltage, no voltage exceeds the withstand voltage during the entire power-on process, eliminating the risk of breakdown in the power-on detection circuit.
