Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of circuit control technology, and in particular to an overvoltage control circuit, a control device, a storage device, and a control method. Background Art

[0002] In the existing FLASH programming and erasing technology, the negative (positive) charge pump may produce overshoot during the voltage establishment process. This overshoot phenomenon is manifested as a voltage pulse exceeding the target voltage value, sometimes even exceeding 400 millivolts. This excessive overshoot voltage will not only cause instantaneous damage to the FLASH storage unit, but may also cause the gradual degradation of device performance, thereby affecting the overall reliability of the product.

[0003] At present, the output of the driving signal is mainly realized during the voltage establishment process of the negative (positive) charge pump by setting a fixed bias current and a fixed Miller capacitor, and the output of the clock circuit connected to the negative charge pump circuit is controlled, thereby controlling the output voltage of the negative (positive) charge pump. Specifically, the voltage establishment time of the negative (positive) charge pump can be extended by reducing the bias current or by increasing the Miller capacitor, thereby optimizing the output voltage of the negative (positive) charge pump.

[0004] However, the processing method in the prior art has a limited range of changes to the bias current. When the bias current is the minimum, the voltage build-up time of the negative (positive) charge pump cannot be extended, making it impossible to optimize the output voltage of the negative (positive) charge pump. When the Miller capacitor is increased, the area of ​​the Miller capacitor increases, which increases the size of the circuit board and the manufacturing cost of the circuit board. Therefore, it is currently impossible to optimize the output voltage of the negative (positive) charge pump without increasing the manufacturing cost of the circuit board. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0054] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0055] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the invention claimed for protection, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0056] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, further definition and explanation thereof is not required in subsequent drawings.

[0057] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "center", "up", "down", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside" and the like indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, or are the orientations or positional relationships in which the product of the invention is conventionally placed when in use, or are the orientations or positional relationships conventionally understood by those skilled in the art. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0058] Furthermore, the terms “first”, “second”, “third”, etc. are merely used for distinguishing descriptions and are not to be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0059] In the description of the present invention, it is also necessary to explain that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "set", "install", "connect", and "connect" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0060] In the existing FLASH programming and erasing technology, the negative (positive) charge pump may produce an overshoot phenomenon during the voltage establishment process. Mainly by setting a fixed bias current and a fixed Miller capacitor, the output of the drive signal is realized during the voltage establishment process of the negative (positive) charge pump, and the output of the clock circuit connected to the negative charge pump circuit is controlled, thereby controlling the output voltage of the negative (positive) charge pump. Specifically, the voltage establishment time of the negative (positive) charge pump can be extended by reducing the bias current or by increasing the Miller capacitor to optimize the output voltage of the negative (positive) charge pump. However, the processing method in the prior art has a limited range of changes in the bias current. When the bias current is the smallest, the voltage establishment time of the negative (positive) charge pump cannot be extended, so that the output voltage of the negative (positive) charge pump cannot be optimized; when the Miller capacitor is increased, the area of ​​the Miller capacitor will increase, the size of the circuit board will increase, and the manufacturing cost of the circuit board will increase. Therefore, it is currently impossible to optimize the output voltage of the negative (positive) charge pump without increasing the manufacturing cost of the circuit board. For this reason, the present application provides an overvoltage control circuit, which optimizes the output voltage of the negative charge pump without increasing or decreasing the manufacturing cost of the circuit board. It is worth noting that the present application takes a negative charge pump as an example, and the principle of optimizing the output voltage circuit of the positive charge pump is the same as that of the present application, and can be implemented by referring to the overvoltage control circuit in the present application.

[0061] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of an overvoltage control circuit provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the overvoltage control circuit includes: an operational amplifier circuit 100, a first detection circuit 200, a second detection circuit 300, a mode control circuit 500 and an output circuit 600;

[0062] The bias terminal BIAS of the operational amplifier circuit 100 is used to receive a preset bias current Ibias, the positive input terminal IP of the operational amplifier circuit 100 is used to connect to the voltage detection terminal corresponding to the output terminal OUT of the negative charge pump circuit 500, the negative input terminal IN of the operational amplifier circuit 100 is grounded, and the output terminal OUT of the operational amplifier circuit 100 is connected to the input terminal IN of the mode control circuit 500;

[0063] The first detection terminal Signal1 of the operational amplifier circuit 100 is connected to the first input terminal IN1 of the first detection circuit 200, and the second detection terminal Signal2 of the operational amplifier circuit 100 is connected to the second input terminal IN2 of the first detection circuit 200, so that the first detection circuit 200 generates a first logic trigger signal strg1 based on the detection voltage Vbias of the first detection terminal Signal1 of the operational amplifier circuit 100; the first detection terminal Signal1 of the operational amplifier circuit 100 is connected to the first input terminal IN1 of the second detection circuit 300, and the second detection terminal Signal2 of the operational amplifier circuit 100 is connected to the second input terminal IN2 of the second detection circuit 300, so that the second detection circuit 300 generates a second logic trigger signal strg2 based on the detection voltage Vbias;

[0064] The output terminal OUT of the first detection circuit 200 and the output terminal OUT of the second detection circuit 300 are respectively connected to the first control terminal Control1 and the second control terminal Control2 of the mode control circuit 400, and the input terminal IN of the mode control circuit 400 is connected to the output terminal OUT of the operational amplifier circuit 100, so that the mode control circuit 400 outputs the first clamping voltage CV1 or the second clamping voltage CV2 under the action of the first logic trigger signal strg1 and the second logic trigger signal strg2;

The detection circuit divides the output voltage of the output terminal OUT of the charge pump circuit 500 to obtain a corresponding detection voltage, which is input to the positive input terminal IP of the operational amplifier circuit 100 through the voltage detection terminal. The detection circuit includes a voltage divider resistor and a preset reference voltage. The preset reference voltage can be 0.6V, 0.85V, 1V or 1.2V. The embodiment of the present application does not limit this. The negative input terminal IN of the operational amplifier circuit 100 is grounded. When the positive input terminal IP of the operational amplifier circuit 100 changes, the corresponding output terminal OUT of the operational amplifier circuit 100 generates a positive voltage change, so that the voltage difference between the negative input terminal IN of the operational amplifier circuit 100 and the positive input terminal IP of the operational amplifier circuit 100 is close to zero.

[0068] The first detection circuit 200 and the second detection circuit 300 output a first logic trigger signal strg1 and a second logic trigger signal strg2 respectively. The working condition of the overvoltage control circuit is determined by different judgments of the first logic trigger signal strg1 and the second logic trigger signal strg2.

[0069] The first control terminal Control1 and the second control terminal Control2 of the mode control circuit 400 receive the first logic trigger signal strg1 and the second logic trigger signal strg2 respectively, and are used to perform mode control according to the first logic trigger signal strg1 and the second logic trigger signal strg2, so that the mode control circuit 400 outputs the first clamping voltage CV1 or the second clamping voltage CV2 according to the first logic trigger signal strg1 and the second logic trigger signal strg2.

[0070] Miller capacitance CM can be 4-5pf, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application and is determined according to the specific usage. The first clamping voltage CV1 or the second clamping voltage CV2 passes through Miller capacitance CM, so that the output voltage V1 of the first mode or the output voltage V2 of the second mode is less than the overshoot voltage of the charge pump circuit 600. Among them, the output voltage V1 of the first mode and the output voltage V2 of the second mode are both less than the overshoot voltage of the charge pump circuit 600. The overshoot voltage of the charge pump circuit 600 can be determined according to the specific circuit of the charge pump circuit 600, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.
