Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of bandgap voltage reference technology in integrated circuits. More specifically, it relates to a novel bandgap voltage reference circuit. Background Technology

[0002] Bandgap references are critical components in most analog and mixed-signal electronic devices, such as voltage regulators, oscillators, ADCs, data converters, and power management controllers. This is because integrated circuits (ICs) rely on a temperature-independent voltage reference with a high power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) to ensure performance parameters such as swing, noise, and bandwidth can withstand temperature variations. These applications often require high precision, thus demanding stringent specifications for the reference voltage source design. Most bandgap references are designed based on the exponential characteristics of BJT devices. The main principle is to generate a voltage that is directly proportional to absolute temperature (PTAT) and a voltage that is inversely proportional to absolute temperature (CTAT), scale and sum these voltages to obtain a temperature-independent reference voltage.

[0003] The lowest temperature coefficient achievable with a typical first-order temperature compensation structure is only 14 ppm / ℃. To further improve output accuracy, higher-order curvature compensation is required. Currently, the most common techniques include curvature compensation, segmented compensation, resistance ratio temperature compensation, and adjustment techniques. However, most low-temperature-coefficient reference sources struggle to achieve high power supply rejection ratios (PSRR), especially with curvature compensation. Introducing a correction current typically lowers the PSRR because introducing new structures often results in increased power supply noise. Therefore, to improve PSRR, existing reference sources often employ cascode structures for isolation in the core branch generating the reference voltage, use large bypass capacitors in the output branch, and introduce negative feedback circuit designs. However, achieving ultra-low temperature coefficients for high PSRR bandgap references is difficult. Therefore, it is currently challenging for current reference voltage sources to simultaneously achieve excellent results in both temperature coefficient and PSRR. Summary of the Invention

Therefore, the following detailed description should not be taken in a limiting sense, and the scope of the present application is defined by the appended claims.

[0023] This application proposes a novel bandgap reference voltage source circuit. Figure 1 This is a circuit diagram of a first-order BGR circuit of a novel bandgap reference voltage source circuit according to an embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, the main principle of a first-order BGR circuit is to generate a voltage that is directly proportional to the absolute temperature (PTAT) and a voltage that is inversely proportional to the absolute temperature (CTAT), scale and sum them to obtain a temperature-independent reference voltage. As shown in the figure, if two bipolar transistors operate at unequal current densities, then the difference between their base-emitter voltages is proportional to the absolute temperature. Therefore, this voltage difference... By applying a current mirror to a resistor and copying the current flowing through that resistor, the PTAT current (the absolute temperature-proportional current) can be obtained. The PTAT current is given by [formula missing], and the CTAT voltage by [formula missing]. Specifically, this is to obtain a reference voltage that is unaffected by temperature. Simultaneously, the clamping effect of the operational amplifier is used to pull the voltages at nodes A and B to be equal, ultimately achieving [formula missing]. The reference voltage formula is as follows: ; V T Represents thermal voltage, I S Represents the saturation current, and N is the ratio of the number of transistors Q6 to Q7 connected in parallel. However, ; Let be the bandgap voltage of silicon at the reference temperature, independent of temperature; T0 is the reference temperature, taken as 300K; β is the mobility, approximately 3.54, and is a constant affected by the process; α is the exponential temperature coefficient of the collector current, which is 0 or 1. It can be seen that the first-order BGR structure can only eliminate the term that is linearly related to temperature.

[0033] Figure 3 This is a graph showing the trend of changes in each circuit during the compensation process of a novel bandgap reference voltage source circuit according to an embodiment of this application, combined with... Figure 2 , 3As can be seen, the current is mirrored from MN1 to MN2, and then from MP4 to MP5. MP4, MP5, MN1, and MN2 act as a transition section, providing a stable bias voltage and blocking some power supply voltage noise. This current source can effectively provide stable bias current for other modules in the circuit, such as operational amplifiers and voltage regulator modules.

[0034] The curvature compensation structure uses the current mirror and the current characteristics of the transistor to fix the current flowing through MP17. This current exhibits a parabolic relationship with temperature. The compensation process is as follows: Figure 3 As shown. The correction current, which exhibits a parabolic relationship with temperature, is converted into a voltage through a resistor and added to the VBG of the first-order BGR. This reduces the amplitude of the reference voltage change with temperature, thus yielding a reference voltage close to zero temperature. The formula for the correction current is as follows: ; Q, calculated to be a value essentially independent of temperature, can be considered a constant. V T Represents thermal voltage, I S This represents the saturation current. This current, mirrored by MP16, flows through R3. This design aims to allow this current to cancel out V. BE6 The nonlinear term in the formula enables the BGR to achieve an ultra-low temperature coefficient. The final reference voltage formula is: ; Therefore, by properly adjusting the values ​​of resistors R5, R4, and R3, a bandgap reference voltage source with a low temperature coefficient and a high power supply rejection ratio can be obtained.

[0035] Power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) is related to loop gain and power supply fluctuations. Traditional first-order reference voltage sources can only improve PSRR by designing a high loop gain structure. This invention, however, uses a voltage self-biasing method to generate a voltage V that is essentially unaffected by power supply fluctuations. SR The formula is as follows: ; V BE V is the base-emitter voltage of the transistor. GS This refers to the gate-source voltage of the MOSFET. Specifically, Figure 2 The MP5 module acts as a current mirror, providing current to the core structure of the bandgap reference voltage source. Simultaneously, it isolates the core circuitry of the bandgap reference from the power supply voltage, preventing the power supply voltage from directly powering the core structure of the bandgap reference. This significantly improves the power supply rejection ratio (PSRR). Small-signal analysis can then be used to calculate V. SR The power supply rejection ratio is: ; g m It is the transconductance of the MOSFET, g dsThis is the drain-source conductance of the MOSFET. Since all devices operate in the saturation region, the MOSFET's g... m Compared to g ds Much larger, and since MP5 uses long-channel devices, it is easy to obtain a high PSRR voltage V. SR Put V SR As the power supply for the core circuit of the reference source, this effectively reduces power supply fluctuations. Simultaneously, this invention employs a high loop gain structure to achieve an ultra-high power supply rejection ratio. Furthermore, V SR It also serves as the power supply voltage for the curvature compensation structure, which can alleviate the problem of reduced power supply rejection ratio after the introduction of correction current.

Figure 5 The simulation results of TC for BGR under different processes are shown. It can be seen that the curves of VBG changing with temperature are well maintained under different processes, so the temperature coefficients are not much different. The minimum TC is 1.40ppm / ℃ and the maximum TC is 7.34ppm / ℃. Figure 6 The PSRR measured at VBG is shown. The BGR of this invention has a PSRR as high as -106 dB at low frequencies (<10 kHz), and the PSRR begins to decrease above 10 kHz. Figure 7 The PSRR is shown in the VBG simulation results for different processes. It can be seen that the PSRR performance remains good under each process.
