Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of integrated circuits, and in particular relates to a backflow prevention high-voltage starting circuit. Background Art

[0002] As an efficient power supply technology, switching power supply is widely used in various electronic products and equipment with its excellent energy-saving and power-saving characteristics. The switching power converter consists of two parts, namely the control module and the power module. The control module of the switching power converter adjusts the power module in time according to the changes in input conditions (voltage or current) and output conditions (voltage or current), and converts one form of power into another form of power. Generally, the switching power converter requires a startup circuit to stabilize the control module when the switching power converter is just powered on. After the control module works normally, the switching power converter officially starts working. In related technologies, a resistor is usually used to charge the capacitor. When the voltage of the capacitor reaches the startup voltage, the control module is powered. The power consumption of the startup circuit depends on the resistance value of the resistor. The larger the resistance, the smaller the power consumption of the startup circuit, but the longer the startup time; the smaller the resistance, the shorter the startup time, but the greater the power consumption of the startup circuit. Therefore, this charging method must compromise between startup time and power consumption.

[0003] In the prior art, the startup of the switching power supply control chip is achieved through a startup resistor or a high-voltage startup circuit. However, to achieve high efficiency and energy saving, the energy consumption caused by the startup resistor method cannot be ignored. In theory, the energy consumption can be reduced by increasing the startup resistor, but it will lead to a significant increase in the startup time. The design idea of ​​the high-voltage startup circuit is that during the system startup phase, the high-voltage input terminal provides a startup current to the bypass capacitor C of the VDD pin. VDD When VDD is higher than the threshold voltage of the overvoltage protection module, the startup current is turned off and the VDD pin is powered by the auxiliary winding of the peripheral transformer.

[0004] Traditional high voltage starting circuit such as Figure 1 As shown in the figure, when VIN>VDD and VDD does not exceed the voltage threshold, the xEN signal is low, VDDOVP is high, and the VIN terminal provides a startup current to charge the VDD terminal; when VIN>VDD and VDD exceeds the voltage threshold, the xEN signal is high, VDDOVP is low, the startup circuit is turned off, and the peripheral winding supplies power to the VDD port. At this time, the anti-backflow tube PM3 is turned off, and there is no backflow current in the startup circuit even if VDD>VIN; however, when VIN<VDD and VDD does not exceed the voltage threshold, the anti-backflow tube PM3 is in the open state, and the parasitic diode does not work. At this time, a large backflow current will be generated from the VDD terminal to the VIN terminal, affecting the use of the system. Summary of the invention

The output of the comparator COMP2 is synchronously used as an enable signal of the startup circuit. When VIN<VDD and VDD does not exceed the voltage threshold, the anti-backflow tube PM3 is turned off, and the parasitic diode is used to block the backflow current to solve the current backflow problem when VIN<VDD and VDD does not exceed the voltage threshold, and has no effect on the high-voltage startup function under the state of VIN>VDD.

[0047] The working principle of this embodiment is:

[0048] When the startup circuit is just powered on, the voltage at the VDD terminal is low. At this time, the comparator is enabled and the default output is low. Then xEN is low, VDDOVP is high, and the switch NM2 is turned on. As the VIN voltage rises, V DZ The voltage follows the rise, when V DZ Greater than the threshold voltage V of the switch tube NM1 TH When NM1 is turned on, I REFThe current generates a startup current through the mirror effect of current mirrors PM1 and PM2, and starts to charge the VDD terminal. The VDD voltage gradually rises, and comparators COMP1 and COMP2 are disabled and start to work normally.

[0049] When VIN>VDD, and VDD does not exceed the voltage threshold, the output signal xEN of comparator COMP1 is low, and the output signal of comparator COMP2 is high, then the VDDOVP signal is high, the startup circuit works normally, the anti-backflow tube PM3 is turned on, and V GS =VDD*R5 / (R4+R5), the startup current continues to charge the VDD port; when VIN>VDD, and VDD exceeds the voltage threshold, the output signal xEN of comparator COMP1 is high, the output signal of comparator COMP2 is high, then the VDDOVP signal is low, the switch tube NM1 is turned on, V DZ is pulled down to GND, the switch tube NM2 is turned off, the anti-backflow tube PM3 is turned off, and V GS =VDD, the startup circuit is closed, there is no startup current, and the VDD terminal is powered by the peripheral winding. At this time, if the VDD voltage is greater than the VIN voltage, the parasitic diode will block the backflow current from the VDD terminal to the VIN terminal.

[0050] When the VIN voltage is lower than the VDD overvoltage threshold, at the initial power-on stage, the startup circuit works normally, and there is still startup current charging the VDD terminal. The VDD voltage gradually rises to near the VIN voltage, the comparator COMP1 output signal xEN is low, and the comparator COMP2 output signal is high. Then the VDDOVP signal is low, the anti-backflow tube PM3 is turned off, VGS = VDD, and the parasitic diode blocks the backflow current from the VDD terminal to the VIN terminal. The maximum VDD voltage is equal to VIN.

[0051] The conventional high voltage startup circuit and the high voltage startup circuit of the present embodiment are designed and simulated using DB HiTek 0.18um 100V process. In the DC simulation diagram, Ivdd_vin represents the reverse current from the VDD terminal to the VIN terminal, and Ivin_vdd represents the startup current from the VIN terminal to the VDD terminal.

[0052] Figure 3 The figure shows the simulated waveform of the reverse current from the VDD end to the VIN end of the traditional high-voltage startup circuit under the conditions of VIN = 9V, VDD = 9 ~ 25V. When VDD < VIN and does not exceed the voltage threshold of 9.96V, the maximum reverse current from the VDD end to the VIN end can reach 66.416mA; Figure 4The figure shows the simulation waveform of the reverse current from the VDD terminal to the VIN terminal under the condition of VIN=9V, VDD=9-25V in the embodiment of the present invention. When VDD<VIN and does not exceed the voltage threshold of 9.96V, the maximum reverse current from the VDD terminal to the VIN terminal is only 114.8pA. Figure 5 The figure shows the simulation waveform of the startup current from VIN to VDD under the condition of VIN=9-100V and VDD=8V in the embodiment of the present invention, and the high-voltage startup function is normal; Figure 6 The figure shows the simulation waveform of the startup current from VIN to VDD under the conditions of VIN=9-100V and VDD=12V in the embodiment of the present invention. When VDD<VIN and exceeds the voltage threshold, the startup circuit is closed and the maximum startup current from VIN to VDD is only 284.2pA.

[0053] It can be seen from the simulation results that the high-voltage circuit of the embodiment of the present invention can normally realize the high-voltage startup function under the state of VIN>VDD, and compared with the traditional high-voltage startup circuit, when VIN<VDD and VDD does not exceed the voltage threshold, the problem of backflow of current from the VDD end to the VIN end can be solved.
