Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] Signal receiving, processing and judgment output are crucial in automatic driving systems.

[0003] In the prior art, in order to prevent circuit signal jitter to ensure the reliability and stability of vehicle signals, level conversion or software control methods are usually used.

[0039] Embodiment one
[0040] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 The structure of the control circuit for preventing the jitter of multi-level logic control provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown. The circuit includes a signal input end 10, a logic control module 20, a signal output end 30, a mirror current source 40 and a DC bias power supply 50.
[0041] In the embodiment, the signal input end 10 is connected with the input end of the logic control module 20. The output end of the logic control module 20 is connected with the signal output end 30, and the control end is connected with the output end of the mirror current source 40. The input end of the mirror current source 40 is connected with the output end of the DC bias power supply 50.

[0042] Among them, the logic control module 20 is mainly used for multi-level logic control of the input signal transmitted by the signal input end 10, so as to output to the signal output end 30.

[0046] On the basis of the above embodiment, the difference of the present embodiment is:
[0047] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 The circuit diagram of the control circuit for preventing multi-level logic control jitter is shown.
[0048] In the embodiment, the mirror current source 40 comprises a first transistor Q1, a second transistor Q2, a first resistor R1 and a second resistor R2. The emitter of the first transistor Q1 is connected with the output end of the DC bias power supply 50, the collector is connected with the first control end of the logic control module 20 through the second resistor R2, and the base is connected with the emitter of the second transistor Q2. The base of the second transistor Q2 is connected on the collector of the first transistor Q1, and the collector is connected with the second control end of the logic control module 20. The first resistor R1 is connected in parallel between the emitter and the base of the first transistor Q1. Among them, the first resistor R1 mainly plays a role of load resistor in the mirror current source 40. The second resistor R2 is mainly used for adjusting the current size flowing through the mirror current source 40, that is, the current size flowing through the mirror current source 40 can be adjusted by adjusting the resistance value of the second resistor R2.
[0049] In the embodiment, the first transistor Q1 and the second transistor Q2 are both PNP type transistors.
[0050] In the embodiment, the logic control module 20 comprises an input control module and an output control module. The input control module at least comprises a first MOS tube T1 and a second MOS tube T2, and the output control module at least comprises a third transistor Q3 and a fourth transistor Q4.
[0051] Among them, the gate of the first MOS tube T1 is connected with the signal input end 10, the drain is connected with the collector of the first transistor Q1 through the second resistor R2, and the source is grounded. The gate of the second MOS tube T2 is connected with the drain of the first MOS tube T1, the drain is connected with the collector of the second transistor Q2, and the source is grounded. The output control module at least comprises a third transistor Q3 and a fourth transistor Q4, the base of the third transistor Q3 is connected with the drain of the second MOS tube T2, the collector is connected with the base of the fourth transistor Q4, and the emitter is grounded. The emitter of the fourth transistor Q4 is connected with the output end of the DC bias power supply 50, and the collector is connected with the signal output end 30. The first MOS tube T1, the second MOS tube T2, the third transistor Q3 and the fourth transistor Q4 cooperate to perform the action of multi-level signal processing, so as to gradually improve the signal quality and accuracy.
[0052] In the embodiment, the first MOS tube T1 and the second MOS tube T2 are N-channel MOS tubes, the third transistor Q3 is a PNP type transistor, and the fourth transistor Q4 is an NPN type transistor.
[0053] In the embodiment, the circuit further comprises an anti-interference module 60, which at least comprises a third resistor R3, a fourth resistor, a first capacitor C1 and an ESD static tube Z1. The third resistor R3 is connected between the signal input end 10 and the gate of the first MOS tube T1. One end of the fourth resistor is connected between the third resistor R3 and the gate of the first MOS tube T1, and the other end is grounded.

The negative electrode of the ESD static tube Z1 is connected between the third resistor R3 and the gate of the first MOS tube T1, and the positive electrode is grounded. Through the cooperation of the third resistor R3, the fourth resistor and the first capacitor C1, when the input signal exists glitches, transient fluctuations, or damped oscillations and other situations that do not meet the starting characteristics, the circuit can filter out to ensure that the latter stage does not trigger the corresponding action, avoiding frequent false actions. The ESD static tube Z1 can avoid the influence of static electricity on the circuit.
[0054] In the embodiment, the circuit can introduce the function of signal delay under the condition of meeting the anti-jitter function. Signal delay refers to artificially adding delay in the process of signal transmission or processing. In the automatic driving domain controller system integration, the receiving, processing and judgment of the signal are extremely important links, which are related to the correctness of the logic execution, and the function of signal delay can improve the correctness of the logic execution.
[0055] The logic control module 20 further comprises a delay control module, which at least comprises a second capacitor C2, one end of which is connected between the drain of the second MOS tube T2 and the base of the third transistor Q3, and the other end is grounded. The second capacitor C2 is mainly used to act as a threshold, and the length of the capacitor charging time can be adjusted by changing the capacitance value of the second capacitor C2, that is, the time for the voltage of the base of the third transistor Q3 to reach the conduction threshold is adjusted, thereby realizing the function of signal delay.
[0056] Through the above structural connection, the working principle of the embodiment of the present application is as follows:
[0057] When the input signal of the signal input end 10 is valid, that is, the input is high, the first MOS tube T1 is turned on through the voltage division effect of the ESD static tube Z1, the third resistor R3, the fourth resistor and the first capacitor C1, and at the same time, the second MOS tube T2 is turned off when the gate voltage is pulled down by the conduction of the first MOS tube T1. Under the action of the direct current bias power supply 50, the mirror current source 40 is excited, and after the delay of the second capacitor C2, the voltage signal of the base of the third transistor Q3 is maintained to prevent the logic control module 20 from producing jitter when outputting the signal, and the effect of delay is achieved. Finally, the signal is output to the signal output end 30 through the fourth transistor Q4.
[0058] It is worth mentioning that the input signal and the output signal maintain the same phase, and are applied to convert the vehicle interface level to the system digital I / O port level.
