[0068] Furthermore, the control circuit includes: a third NMOS transistor (hereinafter referred to as NMOS3) and a fourth NMOS transistor (hereinafter referred to as NMOS4).

[0078] First, in order to facilitate understanding of the working principle of the power-on reset circuit with hysteresis effect provided in the embodiment of the present application, first, the power-on process and the power-off process of the power-on reset circuit are described in detail.

[0079] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the behavior of the reset signal during the power-on and power-off processes provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0080] like Figure 3 As shown, for the power-on reset circuit, as time goes by, in the process of the power supply voltage VDD rising from 0 to the normal working voltage of the circuit system, the power-on reset circuit is reset only when the power supply voltage VDD is higher than the power-on threshold V PORR When the reset signal RSTN changes from logic 0 (Logic0) to logic 1 (Logic1), other modules of the circuit system end the global reset after receiving the signal and start working normally.

[0081] When the power supply voltage VDD drops from the normal voltage to 0, the power-on reset circuit will be turned off only when the power supply voltage VDD is lower than the power-down threshold V PORF When the reset signal RSTN changes from logic 1 to logic 0, other modules in the circuit system perform a global reset after receiving this signal.

[0082] For Figure 2 In the power-on reset circuit shown, the output voltage of the preamplifier circuit is set to V1, the output voltage of the first inverter is set to V2, the voltage of the second inverter is set to V4, the voltage between the drain of NMOS4 and the source of NMOS3 is set to V3, the output voltage of the third inverter is set to V5 (that is, the input voltage of the first input terminal of the AND operation module is set to V5), and the input voltage of the second input terminal of the AND operation module is set to V6.

[0083] During the power-on process, when the power supply voltage VDD is greater than 0 and less than V TH4 When , NMOS1 to NMOS4 are all in the off state, and at this time, the node voltage of V1 is equal to VDD.

[0084] In this case, since the voltage value of VDD is too small to turn on PMOS1, but there is a small amount of leakage current in NMOS2. Therefore, the node voltage of V2 is between 0 and VDD, and is closer to 0. Furthermore, for PMOS2 and NMOS5, the two form an inverter, so the leakage current of PMOS2 makes the node voltage of V4 between 0 and VDD, and is closer to VDD.

[0085] In this process, in order to prevent the V2 node voltage from affecting the subsequent circuit reset, the fourth inverter, the fifth inverter and the capacitor C1 are used to delay the generation of V6 (the potential of V6 is 0), and the potential of V6 (0) and the potential of V5 (0) are input into the AND operation module together, so that the reset signal of the AND operation module data is 0.

[0086] As the power supply voltage VDD continues to increase, when VDD is at V TH4 To V TH2 In the process between, since the gate and drain of NMOS1 are connected, in this case, the node voltage of V1 is equal to the on-voltage of NMOS1, that is, V1 = V TH1 During this process, the leakage current of NMOS2 gradually increases, and PMOS1 is not turned on, and the node voltage of V2 is pulled down to ground by NMOS2. In this state, the node voltage of V2 is 0. For PMOS2 and NMOS5, when the node voltage of V2 is 0, PMOS2 is turned on, NMOS5 is turned off, and the node voltage of V4 is pulled up to the power supply voltage VDD by PMOS2. Furthermore, for NMOS4, at this time, the gate voltage of NMOS4 is equal to the node voltage of V4, that is, the gate voltage of NMOS4 is equal to the power supply voltage VDD, which is greater than the on-state voltage V TH4 , NMOS4 is turned on, and the node voltage of V3 is pulled down to ground; for NMOS3, NMOS3 is turned on, but the node voltage of V2 is always 0.

[0087] In this process, the node voltage of V4 is VDD, the potentials of V5 and V6 received by the AND operation module are both 0, and the reset signal output by the AND operation is still 0.

[0088] As the power supply voltage VDD continues to increase, the node voltage of V1 is always equal to V TH1 (That is, the gate voltage of NMOS2 and PMOS1 is always equal to V TH1), and because VTH4 is less than VTH3. Therefore, the pull-down current flowing through NMOS3 and NMOS4 will no longer increase with the increase of VDD. In this process, the leakage current of POMS1 is gradually turned on with the increase of power supply voltage VDD, and the node voltage of V2 gradually increases.

[0089] When the node voltage of V2 gradually increases to V2 greater than V TH5 In the case of NMOS5 being turned on, the node voltage of V4 will be pulled down as NMOS5 is turned on until the node voltage of V4 is less than V TH4 , NMOS4 is turned off. In this case, the voltage of V3 will increase, and NMOS3 will remain in a weak on state until the power supply voltage VDD equals the power-on threshold V of the power-on reset circuit. PORR In this state, the node voltage of V2 is equal to the power supply voltage VDD, the node voltage of V4 is equal to 0, and the node voltage of V4 is input into the output filter circuit, so that the potentials of the first input terminal and the second input terminal of the AND operation module of the output filter circuit are both 1, and finally a reset signal with a potential of 1 is output to complete the power-on process of the reset circuit.

[0090] For the power-off process of the power-on reset circuit:

[0091] When the power supply voltage VDD drops from the normal value, the node voltage of V2 decreases with the decrease of the power supply voltage VDD until the node voltage of V2 is less than V TH5 When the voltage at the node of V4 increases, NMOS4 and NMOS3 are turned on, and the voltage at the node of V2 is pulled down to 0. At this time, the power supply voltage VDD is equal to the power-down threshold V of the power-on reset circuit. PORF After that, the node voltage of V2 is 0, the node voltage of V4 is equal to the power supply voltage VDD, the current IPD flowing through NMOS3 and NMOS4 is approximately equal to 0, and the reset signal finally output by the power-on reset circuit remains 0.

[0092] Based on the above description of the power-on process and the power-off process of the power-on reset circuit with hysteresis effect, it can be known that the reset voltage of the power-on reset circuit is V1, V2 and V TH5 The power consumption of the power-on reset circuit when working is determined by the first resistor R1 of the preamplifier circuit and V TH1 In an optional implementation manner of the present application, the resistance value of R1 is about 10 Mohm, and in a typical application scenario of VDD=3.3V, the quiescent current of the power-on reset circuit is less than 0.5 μA.

[0093] Furthermore, the hysteresis function of the power-on reset circuit is activated when the node voltage of V2 reaches the power-on threshold V PORR and power-down threshold V PORFDuring the power-on process, the voltage at the V2 node is equal to V TH5 When the power is turned off, the current flowing through NMOS3 and NMOS4 is limited to a constant pull-down current (IPD); and during the power-off process, if the node voltage of V2 is equal to V TH5 When , the pull-down current flowing through NMOS3 and NMOS4 is approximately equal to 0.

[0094] Therefore, when the pull-up capability of PMOS1 remains unchanged, the node voltage of V2 is equal to V TH5 The corresponding power supply voltage is greater than the V2 node voltage during power-off, which is equal to V TH5 The corresponding power supply voltage is V PORR >V PORF .

[0095] In the embodiment of the present application, the hysteresis of the power-on reset circuit is mainly affected by the current size of IPD, that is, V1=V TH1 and the size of NMOS3; the larger the IPD, the more obvious the hysteresis. Therefore, IPD should not be too large. If it exceeds the pull-up capability of PM1, V2 will always be pulled down to 0, RSTN will be locked at 0, and the function will fail. When IPD is within a reasonable range and the size of NMOS3 is increased to increase the hysteresis, NMOS3 and NMOS4 should be adjusted in proportion so that IPD is always limited by NMOS3 to prevent the current determined by NMOS4 from being too large when VDD is too high, causing V2 to always be pulled down.

[0096] In summary, the power-on reset circuit with hysteresis effect provided in the present application can be set by setting the conduction voltage of the NMOS tube in the pre-circuit, the comparison inverting circuit and the control circuit, and through the control circuit, during the power-on process, as the power supply voltage gradually increases and the PMOS tube of the first inverter is turned on, the output power of the first inverter gradually increases until the output voltage of the first inverter is greater than the conduction voltage of the NMOS tube of the second inverter, and the power-on is completed; and during the power-off process, as the power supply voltage gradually decreases, the output voltage of the second inverter gradually increases, and the output voltage of the first inverter gradually decreases until the output voltage of the first inverter is less than the conduction voltage of the NMOS tube of the second inverter, and the power-off is completed. The power-on reset circuit with hysteresis effect can realize the hysteresis effect of the power-on reset circuit in the power-on process and the power-off process, and can provide a new research idea of ​​the power-on reset circuit in the field of electronic technology.
