Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a power switch chip and a control method, and in particular to a high-side drive semiconductor chip and a substrate potential processing method. Background Art

[0002] The system structure principle of the high-side driver semiconductor chip can be found in Figure 1 When the chip is used on the high side of the circuit, the chip has no pins directly connected to the ground, so it is generally designed using an N-type semiconductor process (ntype). The N-type substrate (nsub) is connected to the highest potential power supply voltage Vbb, and then a P well is made in the N-type substrate. The P well is used as the substrate for other devices to achieve isolation between the functional modules in the chip.

[0003] However, when a P-type semiconductor process (ptype) is used for design, the substrate potential of the P-type substrate (psub) needs to be connected to the lowest potential, otherwise the substrate diode is easily forward-biased, causing the problem of substrate parasitic leakage.

[0004] Figure 2 It is a schematic diagram of the N-type semiconductor process. When Vc is connected to the power supply voltage Vbb, the substrate bias potential Ve can be any voltage without forming a forward biased PN junction, so it will not cause the problem of substrate parasitic leakage.

[0005] See also Figure 3 In the P-type semiconductor process, it is impossible to connect each non-isolated NMOS device to the power supply voltage Vbb to avoid substrate bias. Therefore, it is necessary to consider whether the substrate bias diode from the P-type substrate to the NMOS device is turned on. If the substrate bias diode is turned on, it may cause other parasitic transistors to turn on and leak. For this reason, measures must be taken to ensure that the P-type substrate forms a reverse bias on the substrate bias diode in the functional module inside the chip.

[0006] In addition, Figure 1 In the chip, when the switch Vin is closed, the IN terminal is connected to the ground, and the GATE driver module realizes the output of the charge pump by controlling the on and off of the power MOS tube. When the chip is not working, the GATE pull-down module works and the power MOS tube is turned off; when the chip is working normally, in order to turn on the power MOS tube, the GATE pull-down module needs to be turned off. When the IN terminal is at a low level, the P-type substrate needs to be pulled down to the same potential as the IN terminal, but the pull-down current must be less than the pull-up current of the IN terminal, otherwise the IN terminal cannot be pulled up, and the power MOS tube cannot be turned off accordingly. Summary of the invention

The drain of the third NMOS tube N3 is connected to the gate of the second NMOS tube N2.

[0030] Working principle:

[0031] See also Figure 1 When the high-side driving semiconductor chip works normally, the switch Vin is closed, the IN terminal is turned on and becomes low level, and the charge pump outputs current from the OUT terminal after passing through the first PMOS tube P1 and the GATE driving module.

[0032] The control signal inL1 is a control signal required for the power MOS tube to be turned on. When the control signal inL1 is low, the power MOS tube is turned on to drive the OUT terminal to output; at the same time, the first PMOS tube P1 and the second PMOS tube P2 are turned on. Since the third NMOS tube N3 and the fourth NMOS tube N4 form a current mirror, the current flowing through the third NMOS tube N3 is proportional to the bias current bias1 flowing through the third NMOS tube N3. The current of the third NMOS tube N3 pulls down the gate voltage of the second NMOS tube N2, so that the second NMOS tube N2 is turned off, and the pull-down current of the GATE terminal of the GATE driving module is turned off.

[0033] The third resistor R3 provides a gate voltage to the second NMOS transistor N2 when the third NMOS transistor N3 is turned off, so that the second NMOS transistor N2 is turned on and the GATE terminal is pulled down, thereby turning off the power MOS transistor;

[0034] The fourth resistor R4 limits the pull-down current of the second NMOS tube N2 when the second NMOS tube N2 is turned on to control the turn-off speed of the power MOS tube.

[0035] The fifth resistor R5 provides additional pull-down current when the GATE terminal is pulled down, especially when the GATE terminal is pulled down to the threshold voltage Vth of the second NMOS transistor N2, the fifth resistor R5 continues to pull down so that the GATE terminal and the OUT terminal have approximately equal potentials.

[0036] Example 2

[0037] like Figure 5 As shown, the voltage source, overvoltage protection, current limiting, gate voltage protection, voltage sampling, charge pump potential shift rectifier, inductive demagnetization clamp, logic control, current sampling, output voltage detection, temperature sampling, electrostatic protection, current source and other modules inside the high-side driving semiconductor chip are all connected to the P-type substrate, and the high-side driving semiconductor chip has a GND terminal directly grounded, and a depletion-type MOS tube or JFET tube is connected in parallel between the GND terminal and the P-type substrate so that the P-type substrate potential and the GND terminal potential are pulled to be approximately equal, which can prevent parasitic leakage problems caused by the floating P-type substrate potential inside the chip.
