Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a low EMI clock generating circuit for a high-voltage integrated circuit, belonging to the technical field of integrated circuits. Background Art

[0002] High-voltage integrated circuits (HVICs) serve as a bridge between the signal processing and execution components of a system, integrating high-voltage power devices with control circuits, peripheral interface circuits, and protection circuits. These high-voltage integrated circuits, acting as a bridge between strong and weak currents, must also achieve low power consumption and high efficiency. At the same time, harsh application environments demand excellent performance and reliability, requiring high-voltage and low-voltage compatibility, high performance, high efficiency, and high reliability within a limited chip area. From an application functional perspective, typical HVIC products include power management chips and various driver chips. As energy consumption and environmental requirements for electronic devices continue to increase, the market is fiercely competing for low power consumption, high precision, small size, and environmental friendliness, resulting in increasingly stringent performance requirements for HVICs.

[0003] Among the many technical specifications of high-voltage integrated circuits, electromagnetic interference (EMI) is a key concern. For controller chips using the commonly used PWM control method, EMI emissions typically peak at the chip's fundamental switching frequency. The radiation intensity of each higher harmonic gradually decreases, with the majority of the radiated energy confined to the fundamental and lower harmonics. To reduce EMI, the first consideration is to suppress the energy of the noise source. One method involves varying the switching frequency, or modulating it, to spread the spectrum at the switching frequency, thereby reducing radiated energy. Combining random modulation techniques with the oscillator clock signal within the high-voltage integrated circuit can achieve this EMI reduction goal.

[0004] Numerous solutions exist for oscillator generation circuits with random modulation characteristics. Patent CN201110259041 proposes a frequency-jittering oscillator controlled by a pseudo-random sequence, and patent CN201010602270 proposes a method for generating a spread-spectrum clock jitter signal. According to random signal theory, when frequency jittering is used, the periodic patterns inherent in the modulation scheme are inevitably reflected in certain electrical quantities in the system, influencing the spectrum of these quantities and resulting in a corresponding discrete spectrum. Therefore, the more dispersed the spectral components of the random modulation signal, the lower the secondary EMI impact, leading to better overall EMI suppression in the controller chip.

[0025] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.

[0026] like Figure 1As shown, the low-EMI clock generation circuit for high-voltage integrated circuits according to the present invention includes: a frequency-jittering relative amplitude control circuit 10, a frequency-jittering reference voltage generation circuit 11, an error amplification and buffering circuit 12, and a clock generation and coupling output circuit 13. The frequency-jittering relative amplitude control circuit 10 generates a frequency-jittering relative amplitude selection signal Sel based on an external input frequency-jittering amplitude control signal Set and a frequency-jittering control clock ck_dith fed back by the frequency-jittering reference voltage generation circuit 11. The frequency-jittering reference voltage generation circuit 11 generates a frequency-jittering reference voltage Vrdith based on the frequency-jittering relative amplitude selection signal Sel generated by the frequency-jittering relative amplitude control circuit 10. The error amplification and buffering circuit 12 generates an oscillator power supply voltage VCC_OSC based on the frequency-jittering reference voltage Vrdith and a feedback clock CK_fb output by the clock generation and coupling output circuit 13. The clock generation and coupling output circuit 13 generates X-channel output clocks CK1 to CKX and a feedback clock CK_fb based on the oscillator power supply voltage VCC_OSC.

[0027] Because high-voltage integrated circuits typically need to provide large currents, both the chip supply voltage VCC and the chip temperature fluctuate significantly. Therefore, the output frequency of the on-chip clock signal within the chip is particularly susceptible to PVT fluctuations. The present invention provides a solution that limits the impact of PVT fluctuations on the frequency of the output clocks CK1 to CKX by using a feedback clock CK_fb to feedback-control the oscillator supply voltage VCC_OSC generated by the error amplification and buffering circuit 12, ultimately maintaining the stability of the output clocks CK1 to CKX. Assuming that a temperature increase causes the frequency of the feedback clock CK_fb to decrease, the error amplification and buffering circuit 12 will adjust the oscillator supply voltage VCC_OSC based on the changes in the feedback clock CK_fb, increasing the oscillator supply voltage VCC_OSC and ultimately compensating for the temperature fluctuations on the frequency of the output clocks CK1 to CKX.

[0028] The present invention implements a measure to reduce EMI by performing frequency jittering on the output frequency of the clock signal. By increasing the bandwidth of the switching frequency controlled by the switching power supply, the power spectrum density and energy of the switching frequency are reduced, ultimately reducing the EMI peak energy output by the entire switching power supply and reducing EMI interference. The present invention generates a frequency jittering reference voltage Vrdith through a frequency jittering relative amplitude control circuit 10 and a frequency jittering reference voltage generation circuit 11. The frequency jittering reference voltage Vrdith and the feedback clock CK_fb are then compensated for differences within an error amplification and buffer circuit 12 to generate an oscillator power supply voltage VCC_OSC. The frequency jittering reference voltage Vrdith is controlled by a pseudo-random code, so the generated oscillator power supply voltage VCC_OSC has a pseudo-random jitter characteristic, thereby converting the output clock signals CK1 to CKX into frequency jittering clocks, thereby achieving the goal of reducing EMI interference.

The total resistance Rs31 of the frequency-jittering relative amplitude adjustment resistor string is controlled by the frequency-jittering relative amplitude selection signal Sel, and the total resistance Rs33 of the frequency-jittering absolute amplitude adjustment resistor string is controlled by an N-bit pseudo-random code. Therefore, the frequency-jittering reference voltage Vrdith has a pseudo-random characteristic on the one hand, and its relative amplitude relative to the reference voltage is also controlled by the frequency-jittering relative amplitude selection signal Sel on the other hand. In the embodiment of the present invention, the resistance values of any two resistors in the N series resistors of the frequency-jittering absolute amplitude adjustment resistor string are different, and the resistance value of a single resistor in the N resistors is selected using a pseudo-random distribution, that is, the ratio between any two resistors is different. In this way, it is possible to ensure that the voltage amplitude differences between the frequency-jittering reference voltages Vrdith under the control of different pseudo-random codes are different, thereby realizing the random characteristics of the amplitude of the frequency-jittering reference voltage Vrdith. The pseudo-random code generation circuit 32 generates N bits of pseudo-random codes P1-PN. At any given moment, only one bit of the pseudo-random code outputs a high level, while the remaining N-1 bits are all low levels. Furthermore, the duration of time that any one of the N bits of pseudo-random codes P1-PN outputs a high level varies. This ensures that the effective duration of any voltage among the frequency-jittering reference voltages Vrdith controlled by different pseudo-random codes is different, thereby achieving a temporal random characteristic of the frequency-jittering reference voltage Vrdith. Figure 3 In the embodiment, the Y-bit selection code output by the code conversion circuit 31 adopts a thermometer code or other binary code. If the Y-bit selection code is a thermometer code and the frequency-jittering relative amplitude selection signal Sel is a binary code, the code conversion circuit 31 needs to convert the W-bit frequency-jittering relative amplitude selection signal Sel code into a Y-bit selection code, and Y=2 J , J is an arbitrary positive integer. Meanwhile, the Y resistors in the frequency jitter relative amplitude adjustment resistor string need to be formed by Y resistors with the same resistance value connected in series.

[0036] Figure 4 The present invention is shown Figure 3The waveform of the frequency-jittering reference voltage Vrdith formed by the frequency-jittering reference voltage generating circuit is shown in the figure. The figure shows a schematic diagram of 32 different frequency-jittering reference voltages Vrdith implemented by using an 8-bit pseudo-random code and a 2-bit frequency-jittering relative amplitude selection signal Sel code control. It can be seen that after adopting the 8-bit pseudo-random code, the frequency-jittering reference voltage Vrdith provided by the present invention not only has pseudo-random characteristics in amplitude, but also has pseudo-random characteristics in time, thereby being closer to the natural noise signal, and as the number of pseudo-random code bits increases, the frequency-jittering reference voltage Vrdith is closer to the natural noise signal. In addition, the 2-bit frequency-jittering relative amplitude selection signal Sel code adopts binary code, with a total of four states of 00 / 01 / 10 / 11. When the frequency-jittering relative amplitude selection signal Sel code = 00, the corresponding total resistance Rs31 of the frequency-jittering relative amplitude adjustment resistor string is the maximum value, and the adjustment amplitude (⊿Rs33) of Rs33 by the 8-bit pseudo-random code is the lowest relative to the total resistance Rs31+Rs33; when the frequency-jittering relative amplitude selection signal Sel code = 01, the corresponding total resistance Rs31 of the frequency-jittering relative amplitude adjustment resistor string is reduced to a certain extent, and the adjustment amplitude (⊿Rs33) of Rs33 by the 8-bit pseudo-random code is the lowest relative to the total resistance Rs31+Rs33. The ratio of the total resistance Rs31+Rs33 is relatively increased; when the frequency-jittering relative amplitude selection signal Sel code = 10, the total resistance Rs31 of the corresponding frequency-jittering relative amplitude adjustment resistor string is further reduced, and the adjustment amplitude (⊿Rs33) of Rs33 by the 8-bit pseudo-random code relative to the total resistance Rs31+Rs33 is further increased; when the frequency-jittering relative amplitude selection signal Sel code = 11, the total resistance Rs31 of the corresponding frequency-jittering relative amplitude adjustment resistor string is minimum, and the adjustment amplitude (⊿Rs33) of Rs33 by the 8-bit pseudo-random code relative to the total resistance Rs31+Rs33 reaches the maximum. By adjusting the frequency-jittering relative amplitude selection signal Sel code, the degree of deviation of the pseudo-random modulation signal amplitude from the average value of the frequency-jittering reference voltage Vrdith can be flexibly adjusted, thereby increasing the applicable scenarios of the frequency-jittering reference voltage generation circuit.

The delay sequence generation circuit 51 internally utilizes 15 cascaded delay units, which sequentially generate 15 clock data signals Q1 to Q15 with varying time delays. The pseudo-random encoding circuit 52 utilizes a total of 15 tapped clock signals, each tap exhibiting no autocorrelation, and taps exhibiting no correlation with each other. Encoding yields the 3-bit binary pseudo-random code DA0, DA1, and DA2. The 3-bit binary pseudo-random code is then decoded to yield the 8-bit output thermometer pseudo-random code P1 to P8. The delay unit can be implemented using a basic D flip-flop or other clock-controlled logic gates.

When the Ctrl signal is 0, the input interface circuit 60, the serial shift register 61, the serial-to-parallel conversion circuit 62 and the clock frequency dividing circuit 63 do not receive external signals, and the J-bit frequency-dividing relative amplitude selection signal Sel output by the frequency-dividing relative amplitude control circuit remains locked; when the Ctrl signal is 1, the input interface circuit 60, the serial shift register 61, the serial-to-parallel conversion circuit 62 and the clock frequency dividing circuit 63 all operate normally and start to receive external signal input signals, and the J-bit frequency-dividing relative amplitude selection signal Sel output by the frequency-dividing relative amplitude control circuit changes according to the external input frequency-dividing amplitude control signal Set; J is an arbitrary positive integer.

[0041] Figure 6 The circuit's function is to receive an externally input frequency-jittering amplitude control signal Set and convert it into a J-bit frequency-jittering relative amplitude selection signal Sel at an internal chip level. The externally input frequency-jittering amplitude control signal Set is a J-bit serial signal, so only one control port is required for J-bit data transmission. This minimizes the number of off-chip control ports in the present invention, reducing chip area and costs. Figure 6The input interface circuit 60 described in the embodiment can be realized by using a conventional logic level receiving circuit, which usually includes an ESD circuit and a level comparison circuit; the serial shift register 61 and the serial-to-parallel conversion circuit 62 can also be realized by using various existing conventional circuits; the clock frequency dividing circuit 63 can be realized by using an L-level T trigger (L is any positive integer), and the output frequency-dividing relative amplitude control clock ck_sel is divided by a multiple relative to the frequency-dividing control clock ck_dith, which depends on the level L of the T trigger.

When the Ctrl signal is 1, the input interface circuit 60, serial shift register 61, serial-to-parallel conversion circuit 62, and clock divider circuit 63 all operate normally and begin receiving external input signals. The clock divider circuit 63 divides the frequency-jittering control clock ck_dith to generate the frequency-jittering relative amplitude control clock ck_sel. The division multiple is determined by the number of T-flip-flop stages within the circuit. The input interface circuit 60 receives the external input frequency-jittering amplitude control signal Set and converts it into an internal standard input frequency-jittering amplitude control signal Set_in.

X is any positive integer.

[0044] Among them, inverter Inv800, inverter Inv801, and inverter Inv802 constitute a reference clock ring oscillator, the output of the reference clock ring oscillator is connected to the input end of buffer Buf80, and the output end of buffer Buf80 is the reference clock signal OSC_out. The power supply voltage of inverter Inv800, inverter Inv801, inverter Inv802 and buffer Buf80 all use the oscillator power supply voltage VCC_OSC.

The drain and gate of the NMOS transistor M83 and the gate of the NMOS transistor M84; the drain of the PMOS transistor M85 is connected to the drain of the NMOS transistor M86, and is also connected to the gates of the PMOS transistor M87 and the NMOS transistor M88; the drain of the PMOS transistor M87 is connected to the drain of the NMOS transistor M88, and is also connected to the input ends of X+1 output inverters Inv83 and Inv831 to Inv83X; the output end of the output inverter Inv83 provides a feedback clock signal CK_fb, and the output ends of Inv831 to Inv83X provide X output clock signals CK1 to CKX respectively. The lower end of the resistor R80, the source of the NMOS transistor M83, the source of the NMOS transistor M84, the source of the NMOS transistor M86, and the source of the NMOS transistor M88 are all connected to the ground voltage GND; the source of the PMOS transistor M81, the source of the PMOS transistor M82, the source of the PMOS transistor M85, and the source of the PMOS transistor M87 are all connected to the power supply voltage VCC.

[0046] Figure 8The reference clock ring oscillator and buffer Buf80 generate a reference clock signal OSC_out based on the oscillator power supply voltage VCC_OSC. PMOS transistors M81, M82, NMOS transistors M83, and M84 form a self-bias circuit, providing a bias to the upper end of resistor R81 and the lower end of resistor R82. Capacitor C80 and resistor R80 form a high-pass filter to block the high and low DC components of the input clock. Capacitor C81 and resistor R81 form a second high-pass filter, while capacitor C82 and resistor R82 form a third high-pass filter. The outputs of the second and third high-pass filters are connected to the gates of PMOS transistors M85 and NMOS transistors M86, respectively. After the reference clock signal OSC_out undergoes two high-pass filtering stages, the resulting AC signal is passed through a push-pull amplifier circuit formed by PMOS transistors M85 and NMOS transistors M86 to generate a new clock signal with high and low level conversion and shifting. This signal is then buffered and shaped by the output inverter to produce the final output clock.

[0047] Figure 8 In this circuit, the reference clock signal OSC_out undergoes two stages of high-pass filtering before being shaped and buffered by cascaded inverters to produce multiple output clocks. This circuit's function is to convert an input clock swing of VCC_OSC into an output clock swing of VCC through capacitive coupling through the high-pass filter, achieving level conversion. The output clocks are powered by VCC, preventing even significant interference from feeding back into the input clocks, thus ensuring the stability of the reference clock signal OSC_out.

[0048] Figure 9 The AC-DC control chip can be divided into four functional modules according to its function:

[0049] (a) Reference generation module. The reference generation module mainly includes: a high-voltage regulator circuit, which receives the high voltage (7.6V to 26.2V) from the chip's VDD pin and converts it into an internal 5V power supply voltage, providing a stable low-voltage power supply for all low-voltage modules within the chip; a bandgap reference voltage source circuit, which generates a bandgap reference voltage with a high power supply rejection ratio and a near-zero temperature coefficient at room temperature, providing a reference level for the chip's internal circuit voltage; a reference current source circuit, which provides a reliable current reference for the chip's internal circuits; and an overvoltage and undervoltage protection circuit, which is used to determine the chip's minimum operating voltage and maximum shutdown voltage.

[0050] (b) Constant voltage control module. The constant voltage loop can be broadly divided into a constant voltage on-signal and a constant voltage off-signal generation loop. In the on-signal control loop, the output voltage is sampled and passed through the FB sample / hold circuit. The error amplifier EA and the negative feedback resistor together form an inverting amplifier with a fixed gain of 40. The FB sampled voltage is connected to the inverting input of the error amplifier via a resistor, and the non-inverting input of the error amplifier is connected to a 2.5V reference voltage. The error amplifier output voltage is sent to the PWM comparator to generate the power tube on-signal (CV_ON). The compV signal is then processed by a resistor divider and a filter and sent to CV_OCP to generate the power tube off-signal (CV_OFF) in constant voltage mode.

[0051] (c) Constant current control module. In the constant current loop, the main components are the constant current on-signal and the constant current off-signal. The primary peak current sampling signal, CS, is compared with the reference voltage of the transconductance amplifier via the CS sample-and-hold circuit. After being scaled by a buffer, it is fed into the comparator. CMP2 compares the output of the preceding circuit with the corresponding reference voltage, CS, to generate the corresponding constant current loop off-signal. The constant current on-signal utilizes a quasi-resonant valley conduction mode, enabling the switch to complete switching when the voltage crosses zero (ZVS), achieving valley conduction and generating the corresponding constant current loop on-signal.

[0052] (d) Logic control module. The system starts in constant current mode and determines the current load condition based on the sampled signals from each port. The logic control circuit selects the required constant voltage or constant current on / off signal and generates the drive signal for the power transistor, ultimately maintaining a constant output voltage or current.

[0053] (e) Oscillating clock module. Mainly includes the low EMI clock signal generating circuit and frequency dividing circuit described in the present invention, which are used to provide various basic clock signals and other signals such as sawtooth waves required by other functions of the chip. On the one hand, the oscillator power supply voltage used in the clock generating circuit of the present invention is only controlled by the reference signal and is not affected by PVT fluctuations, thereby ensuring the frequency stability of the reference clock signal; on the other hand, a pseudo-random code with pseudo-random characteristics in amplitude and time is used inside the pseudo-random modulation power supply generating circuit to modulate the oscillator power supply voltage, so that the frequency of the reference clock signal OSC_out has a random frequency jitter characteristic, thereby reducing EMI interference.

[0054] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
