Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of electronic technology, and in particular to a level shifter, a half-bridge conversion circuit and an electronic device. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous development of the third-generation semiconductor GaN (Gallium Nitride) power devices, high-power density and high-reliability power supply systems designed based on GaN power devices are gradually being widely used in the market. Due to the high-speed switching capability and high voltage resistance of GaN power devices, they can achieve a wider range of application scenarios compared to traditional Si-based power devices, giving them broad application prospects.
[0003] GaN power devices are often used as switching devices in half-bridge conversion circuits. In a half-bridge conversion circuit, since the switch node voltage between the high-side power tube and the low-side power tube, i.e., the floating ground voltage, will change, a level shifter is needed to adjust the floating power supply voltage of the high-side power tube to ensure that the high-side power tube can be correctly turned on and off according to the PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation) signal under different working conditions. Due to the high switching speed of GaN power devices, the switch node voltage will change greatly in a short period of time. This rapid change will produce coupling through the self-contained capacitance in the half-bridge conversion circuit to affect the floating power supply voltage of the high-side power tube. The common-mode current formed will interfere with the level shifter, affect the normal operation of the level shifter, and reduce the performance of the level shifter. Summary of the invention

[0086] Please continue reading Figure 5 The output module 130 in the level shifter includes an eighth inverter INV8, a ninth inverter INV9, a tenth inverter INV10 and an eleventh inverter INV11.
[0087] Among them, the input end of the eighth inverter INV8 and the input end of the ninth inverter INV9 are both connected to the first signal input terminal S1; the input end of the tenth inverter INV10 and the input end of the eleventh inverter INV11 are both connected to the second signal input terminal S2. The output end of the ninth inverter INV9 is connected to the input end of the tenth inverter INV10 and the input end of the eleventh inverter INV11, and the output end of the tenth inverter INV10 is connected to the input end of the eighth inverter INV8 and the input end of the ninth inverter INV9. The output end of the eight inverters is connected to the first signal output terminal OUT1, and the output end of the eleventh inverter INV11 is connected to the second signal output terminal OUT2.
[0088] The following will be combined Figure 5 The working principle of the level shifter provided by the embodiment of the present invention is introduced.
[0089] When the rising edge of the input signal PWM_IN1 arrives, the pulse generator generates a narrow pulse IN_R to turn on the first high-voltage NMOS tube HNM1, generating a drain-to-source current I D1 At the same time, the gate terminal signal of the second high-voltage NMOS tube HNM2 maintains the ground level, I D2 is 0.
[0090] In this case, on the one hand, I D1The node at the third terminal N3 is discharged through a current mirror formed by the first PMOS transistor PM1 and the second PMOS transistor PM2, and a current mirror formed by the first NMOS transistor NM1 and the second NMOS transistor NM2. D1 The node at the fourth terminal N4 is charged through the current mirror formed by the first PMOS transistor PM1 and the fifth PMOS transistor PM5. D2 =0, so the third PMOS transistor PM3, the fourth PMOS transistor PM4, the sixth PMOS transistor PM6, the third NMOS transistor NM3 and the fourth NMOS transistor NM4 are all turned off.
[0091] Therefore, at this time, the node at the third terminal N3 is mirrored to the differential mode current pull-down of the second NMOS tube NM2, and the node at the fourth terminal N4 is mirrored to the differential mode current pull-up of the fifth PMOS tube PM5. Then the node voltage at the third terminal N3, that is, the first voltage signal, is at a low level, and the node voltage at the fourth terminal N4, that is, the second voltage signal, is at a high level. Then, the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal are transmitted to the output module 130 and output after inversion processing to complete the output signal switching.
[0092] When the falling edge of the input signal PWM_IN1 arrives, the pulse generator generates a narrow pulse IN_F to turn on the second high-voltage NMOS tube HNM2, generating a drain-to-source current I D2 At the same time, the gate terminal signal of the first high-voltage NMOS tube HNM1 maintains the ground level, I D1 is 0.
[0093] In this case, on the one hand, I D2 The node at the fourth terminal N4 is discharged through a current mirror formed by the third PMOS transistor PM3 and the fourth PMOS transistor PM4, and a current mirror formed by the third NMOS transistor NM3 and the fourth NMOS transistor NM4; on the other hand, I D2 The current mirror formed by the third PMOS transistor PM3 and the sixth PMOS transistor PM6 charges the node at the third terminal N3. D1 =0, so the first PMOS transistor PM1, the second PMOS transistor PM2, the fifth PMOS transistor PM5, the first NMOS transistor NM1 and the second NMOS transistor NM2 are all turned off.
[0094] Therefore, at this time, the node at the third terminal N3 is mirrored to the differential mode current pull-up of the sixth PMOS transistor PM6, and the node at the fourth terminal N4 is mirrored to the differential mode current pull-down of the third NMOS transistor NM3. Then the node voltage at the third terminal N3, that is, the first voltage signal, is at a high level, and the node voltage at the fourth terminal N4, that is, the second voltage signal, is at a low level. Then, the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal are transmitted to the output module 130 and output after inversion processing to complete the output signal switching.
[0095] Therefore, the common-mode current suppression module 120 can ensure that the differential-mode signal, ie, the differential-mode current, generated by the input module 110 passes correctly.
[0096] It can be understood that the rising edge of the input signal PWM_IN1 generates a narrow pulse IN_R at the gate end of the first high-voltage NMOS transistor HNM1 through the pulse generator, so that the first high-voltage NMOS transistor HNM1 is turned on and generates a conduction current I D1 The falling edge of the input signal PWM_IN1 passes through the narrow pulse generator to generate a narrow pulse IN_F at the gate end of the second high-voltage NMOS tube HNM2, so that the second high-voltage NMOS tube HNM2 is turned on, generating a conduction current I D2 Since the rising and falling edges of the input signal PWM_IN1 appear alternately, I D1 with I D2 It is the alternating differential mode current.
[0097] Next we will continue to combine Figure 5 The working principle of the common-mode current suppression module 120 is introduced.
[0098] When the floating ground voltage V SSH When rising, transient interference dV is generated SSH / dt, since the drain and source of the first high-voltage NMOS transistor HNM1 are connected to the first parasitic capacitor C1, and the drain and source of the second high-voltage NMOS transistor HNM2 are connected to the second parasitic capacitor C2, a common-mode parasitic current I flowing through the drain and source of the first high-voltage NMOS transistor HNM1 and the second high-voltage NMOS transistor HNM2 will be generated at the same time. COM , and dV SSH The larger the dt, the COM The larger the I is, the first PMOS tube PM1 and the third PMOS tube PM3 need to bear the common mode parasitic current from the first high voltage NMOS tube HNM1 and the second high voltage NMOS tube HNM2. COM The larger the voltage is, the greater the voltage difference between the source terminal and the drain terminal of the first PMOS tube PM1 and the third PMOS tube PM3 is, that is, the lower the drain terminal potential of the first PMOS tube PM1 and the third PMOS tube PM3 is.
[0099] The following takes the rising edge of PWM_IN1 as an example to illustrate the working principle of the common mode current suppression module 120. When the rising edge of PWM_IN1 arrives, the node voltage at the third terminal N3, i.e., the first voltage signal, is at a low level, the node voltage at the fourth terminal N4, i.e., the second voltage signal, is at a high level, and the first signal output terminal OUT1 of the output module 130 outputs the floating power supply voltage V DDH , the second signal output terminal OUT2 outputs a floating ground voltage V SSH .
[0100] When the transient interference dV SSH When / dt arrives, the parasitic current I flowing through the third PMOS tube PM3 COM , through the current mirror formed by the third PMOS transistor PM3 and the sixth PMOS transistor PM6, the node at the third terminal N3 is charged, that is, the node at the third terminal N3 is pulled up. And the parasitic current I flowing through the third PMOS transistor PM3 COM , through the current mirror composed of the third PMOS tube PM3 and the fourth PMOS tube PM4, and the current mirror composed of the third NMOS tube NM3 and the fourth NMOS tube NM4, the node at the fourth terminal N4 is discharged, that is, the node at the fourth terminal N4 is pulled down, which affects the normal output of the level shifter.
[0101] Since high-voltage N-type MOS tubes of the same size as the first high-voltage NMOS tube HNM1 and the second high-voltage NMOS tube HNM2 are added, namely, the third high-voltage NMOS tube HNM3 and the fourth high-voltage NMOS tube HNM4, and the drain and source ends of the third high-voltage NMOS tube HNM3 are connected to the third parasitic capacitor C3, and the drain and source ends of the fourth high-voltage NMOS tube HNM4 are connected to the fourth parasitic capacitor C4, the same magnitude of common-mode parasitic current I flowing through the drain and source ends of the third high-voltage NMOS tube HNM3 and the fourth high-voltage NMOS tube HNM4 is also generated. COM .
[0102] The parasitic current I flowing through the seventh PMOS tube PM7 COM , through the current mirror formed by the seventh PMOS tube PM7 and the tenth PMOS tube PM10, the parasitic current I COM The drain end of the first PMOS tube PM1 is pulled down. And the parasitic current I flowing through the seventh PMOS tube PM7 COM , through the current mirror composed of the seventh PMOS tube PM7 and the eighth PMOS tube PM8, and the current mirror composed of the fifth NMOS tube NM5 and the sixth NMOS tube NM6, since the first signal output terminal OUT1 outputs the floating power supply voltage V DDH , the seventh NMOS tube NM7 is turned on, then the parasitic current I COMThe node at the third terminal N3 is discharged through the sixth NMOS transistor NM6 and the seventh NMOS transistor NM7, that is, the node at the third terminal N3 is pulled down, thereby suppressing the parasitic current I COM The node at the third terminal N3 is pulled up, thereby obtaining the first voltage signal after the interference current suppression process, that is, obtaining the third voltage signal.
[0103] The parasitic current I flowing through the eleventh PMOS tube PM11 COM , through the current mirror formed by the eleventh PMOS tube PM11 and the fourteenth PMOS tube PM14, the parasitic current I COM The drain end of the third PMOS transistor PM3 is pulled down. And the parasitic current I flowing through the eleventh PMOS transistor PM11 COM , through the current mirror formed by the eleventh PMOS transistor PM11 and the thirteenth PMOS transistor PM13, since the second signal output terminal OUT2 outputs the floating ground voltage V SSH , the sixteenth PMOS tube PM16 is turned on, then the parasitic current I COM The node at the fourth terminal N4 is charged through the thirteenth PMOS transistor PM13 and the sixteenth PMOS transistor PM16, that is, the node at the fourth terminal N4 is pulled up, thereby suppressing the parasitic current I COM The node at the fourth terminal N4 is pulled down, thereby obtaining the second voltage signal after the interference current suppression process, that is, obtaining the fourth voltage signal.
[0104] It is understandable that when the falling edge of PWM_IN1 arrives, due to dV SSH The first current suppression unit 123 and the second current suppression unit 125 will also suppress the interference of the common-mode parasitic current in a similar manner to ensure the correct output of the level shifter.
