Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of power electronics technology, and more particularly to a drive circuit, method, and power supply system. Background Technology
[0002] like Figure 1 The diagram shows a schematic of a driving circuit provided by the prior art. Current driving circuits reduce switching delay by combining logic control signals to detect the gate voltage Vg and drain voltage Vout of the corresponding power transistor MN0. Then, auxiliary charging and discharging circuits are activated via K3 and K4 to accelerate the entry or exit of the switching transistor MN0 from the plateau effect operating region, thereby reducing switching delay. Without auxiliary charging and discharging circuits, the turn-on / turn-off of the switching transistor is entirely determined by the charging current Ichg and the discharging current Idis. If these two currents are set to small values due to output slew rate requirements, the turn-on and turn-off delays become significant.
[0003] like Figure 2 The diagram illustrates the Miller plateau effect during the turn-on and turn-off process, as provided by existing technology. When the power transistor MN0 needs to be turned off, the logic signal CMD_P changes from high to low, and CMD_N changes from low to high. Switch K2 opens, and the discharge current Idis discharges through the gate of the power transistor MN0, causing the gate voltage Vg to decrease slowly. After a delay time Td1, Vg drops to Vm, entering the Miller plateau region. At this point, the output voltage Vout begins to rise. After Vout rises to a certain value and exits the Miller plateau region, the gate voltage continues to be discharged to 0 by the discharge current Idis through T2. When the power switch needs to be turned on, the logic signal CMD_P changes from low to high, and CMD_N changes from high to low. Switch K1 opens, and the charging current Ichg charges the gate of the power transistor MN0, causing the gate voltage Vg to increase slowly. After a delay time Td2, Vg rises to Vm, entering the Miller plateau region. At this point, the output voltage Vout begins to decrease. After Vout drops to a certain value and exits the Miller plateau region, the gate voltage continues to be charged to the supply voltage by the charging current Ichg through T3. When the charging and discharging currents Ichg and Idis are relatively small due to the output slew rate requirements, the turn-on and turn-off delay times Td1 and Td2 are relatively large.
[0004] When the power switch needs to be turned on, the logic signal CMD_P changes from low to high, and CMD_N changes from high to low, opening switches K1, K3, and K5. At this time, the gate / drain detection circuit detects that the gate voltage Vg is lower than the threshold Vth2, generating an auxiliary discharge current Ic_aux1 to charge the gate of power transistor MN0. After a delay time Td2, the gate voltage Vg rises to Vm, and Ic_aux1 decreases to 0. The output voltage Vout then begins to decrease at the set slew rate. After a time Tf, power transistor MN0 begins to exit the Miller plateau region, and the gate voltage Vg continues to be charged by the discharge current Ichg. When the gate / drain detection circuit detects that Vout is less than the set threshold Vth1, it generates an auxiliary discharge current Ic_aux2, quickly pulling Vg back to the supply voltage, and power transistor MN0 is fully turned on. To achieve slew rate regulation, this existing technology requires the combination of multiple logic signals, making control complex. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation
[0023] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0024] Please refer to Figure 1is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of the driving circuit provided by the present invention, the driving circuit comprising: a first current mirror, a second current mirror, a first switch K2, a second switch K1, a gate-drain detection circuit and a power transistor; wherein a first detection terminal of the gate-drain detection circuit is connected to the gate of the power transistor; a second detection terminal of the gate-drain detection circuit is connected to the drain of the power transistor; the output terminal of the gate-drain detection circuit is connected to the first input terminal of the first current mirror; the second input terminal of the first current mirror is connected to the first output terminal of the second current mirror; the third input terminal of the first current mirror is connected to the first end of the first switch K2; the output terminal of the first current mirror is grounded; the input terminal of the second current mirror is connected to a voltage source; the second output terminal of the second current mirror is connected to the first end of the second switch K1; the second end of the first switch K2 is connected to the gate of the power transistor; the second end of the second switch K1 is connected to the gate of the power transistor; the gate-drain detection circuit is configured to generate a driving current according to the gate voltage of the power transistor and the drain voltage of the power transistor; the first current mirror is configured to copy the driving current received at the first input terminal to the second input terminal and the third input terminal; the second current mirror is configured to copy the current at the first output terminal to the second output terminal.
[0025] In this embodiment, the power transistor is an NMOS transistor, which requires low-side driving; in addition, only one gate-drain detection circuit is used in this embodiment, and the detection circuit does not need to be combined with a logic control signal. It generates the driving current Iaux only when the gate voltage is less than the threshold voltage of the power transistor, Vg<Vth2, or the drain voltage is less than a preset voltage value, Vout<Vth1. The first current mirror MP1~MP2 and the second current mirror MN1~MN3 respectively generate an auxiliary charging current Ic_aux and an auxiliary discharging current Id_aux.

This eliminates the need for multiple switches to receive logic signal control, thus simplifying the control process of power transistor driving.
[0030] Furthermore, the first current mirror includes: a first switching transistor MN1, a second switching transistor MN2, and a third switching transistor MN3; Wherein, the first terminal of the first switching transistor MN1 is the first input terminal of the first current mirror; The first terminal of the first switching transistor MN1 is connected to the control terminal of the first switching transistor MN1.

[0031] The first current mirror of the present invention is controlled by the drive current of the gate-drain detection circuit, and the operation of the second current mirror is controlled by the second switching transistor. Thus, the control of two current mirrors is achieved using only one detection circuit and drive current. Under the condition of slew rate regulation, the switching transistor assists in completing the charging and discharging operation of the power transistor. The use of detection circuit and logic signals is reduced, and the control process of power transistor driving is simplified.
[0032] Furthermore, the first switch MN1 is a transistor or a MOSFET; the second switch MN2 is a transistor or a MOSFET; and the third switch MN3 is a transistor or a MOSFET.
[0033] Furthermore, the second current mirror includes: a fourth switch MP1 and a fifth switch MP2; The first terminal of the fourth switch MP1 and the first terminal of the fifth switch MP2 together constitute the input terminal of the second current mirror.

[0035] Furthermore, the fourth switch MP1 is a transistor or a MOSFET; the fifth switch MP2 is a transistor or a MOSFET.
[0036] Furthermore, the power transistor includes an NMOS transistor or a PMOS transistor.
[0037] Please refer to Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of another embodiment of the driving circuit provided by the present invention. The driving circuit of the present invention can also be used for high-side driving when the power transistor is a PMOS transistor. When the gate voltage is greater than a first voltage difference (Vg > VB - Vth2) or the drain voltage is greater than a second voltage difference (Vout > VB - Vth1), a driving current Iaux is generated to accelerate the turn-on and turn-off speed of the power transistor MP0. The first voltage difference is the difference between the power supply voltage and the threshold voltage of the power transistor, and the second voltage difference is the difference between the power supply voltage and a preset voltage value. Please refer to... Figure 5is the operating waveform diagram of the driving circuit provided by the present invention. When it is necessary to turn on the power transistor MP0, CMD_P changes from high to low, CMD_N changes from low to high, the gate-drain detection circuit detects that Vg>VB-Vth2, generates current Iaux, which passes through current mirrors MP1 to MP5 and MN1 to MN3 to generate auxiliary charging current Ic_aux and auxiliary discharging current Id_aux respectively. Since CMD_N is turned on at this time, Vg is quickly pulled down to Vm<VB-Vth2, Iaux drops to 0, and the power transistor MP0 enters the Miller plateau region. After a period of Tr, Vout>VB-Vth1, the gate-drain detection circuit generates current Iaux again, pulling Vg to the ground, and the power transistor MP0 is fully turned on.
[0038] When it is necessary to turn off the power transistor MP0, CMD_P changes from low to high, CMD_N changes from high to low, the gate-drain detection circuit detects that Vout>VB-Vth1, generates current Iaux, which generates auxiliary discharging current Id_aux and auxiliary charging current Ic_aux through current mirrors. Since CMD_P is turned on at this time, Vg is quickly pulled up to Vm, and the power transistor MP0 enters the Miller plateau region. After a period of Tf, Vg>VB-Vth2, the gate-drain detection circuit generates current Iaux again, pulling Vg to VB, and the power transistor MP0 is fully turned off.
[0039] On the other hand, embodiments of the present invention further provide a driving method, which is applied to the driving circuit according to the embodiments of the present invention, including: collecting the gate voltage of the power transistor and the drain voltage of the power transistor; when the gate voltage is less than the threshold voltage of the power transistor, or the drain voltage is less than a preset voltage value, outputting a driving current to a first current mirror, so that the first current mirror and the second current mirror generate mirrored currents, which cooperate with a first switch and a second switch to charge and discharge the gate of the power transistor; or, when the gate voltage is greater than a first voltage difference, or the drain voltage is greater than a second voltage difference, outputting a driving current to the first current mirror, so that the first current mirror and the second current mirror generate mirrored currents, which cooperate with the first switch and the second switch to charge and discharge the gate of the power transistor; wherein the first voltage difference is the difference between the power supply voltage and the threshold voltage of the power transistor, and the second voltage difference is the difference between the power supply voltage and the preset voltage value.
[0040] In this embodiment, when the gate voltage is less than the threshold voltage of the power transistor, or the drain voltage is less than the preset voltage value, outputting the driving current to the first current mirror, so that the first current mirror and the second current mirror generate mirrored currents, which cooperate with the first switch and the second switch to charge and discharge the gate of the power transistor, specifically comprises: When the gate voltage is less than the threshold voltage of the power transistor, a drive current is output to the first input terminal of the first current mirror so that the first current mirror controls the second current mirror to replicate the drive current; the second switch is closed so that the second current mirror charges the gate of the power transistor; or, when the gate voltage is less than the preset voltage value, a drive current is output to the first input terminal of the first current mirror so that the first current mirror replicates the drive current; the first switch is closed so that the first current mirror discharges the gate of the power transistor.
[0041] In this embodiment, when the gate voltage is greater than the first voltage difference, or the drain voltage is greater than the second voltage difference, a drive current is output to the first current mirror, so that the first current mirror and the second current mirror generate a mirror current, which, in conjunction with the first switch and the second switch, charges and discharges the gate of the power transistor. Specifically: When the gate voltage is greater than the first voltage difference, a drive current is output to the first input terminal of the first current mirror so that the first current mirror replicates the drive current; the first switch is closed so that the first current mirror discharges the gate of the power transistor; or, when the gate voltage is greater than the second voltage difference, a drive current is output to the first input terminal of the first current mirror so that the first current mirror controls the second current mirror to replicate the drive current; the second switch is closed so that the second current mirror charges the gate of the power transistor.
[0042] After detecting the voltage at the gate and source of the power transistor, this invention can control both current mirrors by only outputting a drive signal to the first current mirror, reducing the use of detection circuits. In addition, by only outputting the drive current to control the first and second current mirrors, it can be used as an auxiliary current source to cooperate with the first and second switching transistors to charge and discharge the gate of the power transistor under slew rate regulation, without using logic signals, thus greatly simplifying the control process of power transistor driving.
[0043] On the other hand, embodiments of the present invention also provide a power supply system, including the drive circuit as described in embodiments of the present invention.
[0044] This invention uses only one gate-drain detection circuit to detect the voltage at the gate and source of the power transistor, reducing the use of detection circuits. In addition, the gate-drain detection circuit only outputs a drive current to control the first and second current mirrors. Under the condition of slew rate regulation, it can be used as an auxiliary current source to cooperate with the first and second switching transistors to charge and discharge the gate of the power transistor, without using logic signals. Therefore, the control process of driving the power transistor is greatly simplified.
