Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of integrated circuits, and in particular to an operational amplifier circuit, a chip and an electronic device. Background Art

[0002] The operational amplifier circuit includes two positive and negative input terminals for receiving input signals respectively, and includes an amplification module for amplifying the difference between the two input signals. The amplification module usually includes at least one pair of transistors, and the two transistors in the same pair of transistors are respectively used to connect the positive input terminal and the negative input terminal. Various fixed parameters (such as threshold voltage, etc.) of the two transistors must be the same to ensure that during the amplification process, the two input signals are treated equally when flowing through the two transistors, so that the difference between the two input signals can be accurately amplified.

[0003] However, the transistors of the amplification module are usually complementary metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFET or MOS tubes), and the error in the manufacturing process of MOS tubes is large, and there is inevitable non-uniformity, resulting in slight differences between different MOS tubes. Therefore, the two transistors in the same pair of transistors are not exactly the same. When two input signals flow through these two transistors, in addition to the voltage difference generated between the two input signals (that is, the difference that needs to be amplified), the difference between the transistors themselves will also cause a new voltage difference (that is, the offset voltage). In other words, when there is no difference in the input signal, the output voltage of the circuit is not zero, and this non-zero output voltage is the offset voltage.

[0004] Therefore, how to further reduce the offset voltage in the operational amplifier circuit to improve the accuracy of the operational amplifier circuit is a problem that needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the embodiments of the present application provide an operational amplifier circuit, a chip and an electronic device.

[0006] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides an operational amplifier circuit, which includes an amplifier module, and the amplifier module includes a first amplifier unit, a second amplifier unit and a modulation unit; wherein the first amplifier unit is used to receive a first differential signal, and the second amplifier unit is used to receive a second differential signal; the first amplifier unit has a first output node, and the first amplifier unit outputs a first difference signal between the first differential signal and the second differential signal through the first output node; the second amplifier unit has a second output node, and the second amplifier unit outputs a second difference signal between the first differential signal and the second differential signal through the second output node; the modulation unit is connected to the first output node and the second output node respectively, and the output end of the modulation unit is the output end of the amplifier module, and the output end of the modulation unit is alternately connected to the first output node and the second output node to periodically alternately output the first difference signal and the second difference signal.

[0007] Based on the above scheme, since the modulation unit can periodically and alternately output the first difference signal and the second difference signal, when the frequency of the periodically and alternately output signal is high (for example, the frequency is higher than the frequency of the first differential signal and the second differential signal), the output end of the amplification module can output the average value between the first difference signal and the second difference signal, thereby offsetting the difference between the first amplification unit and the second amplification unit, and reducing the offset voltage generated in the amplification module. Therefore, in the voltage change at the output end of the operational amplifier circuit, the offset voltage generated by the difference between the MOS tubes in the amplification module is eliminated, so that the difference between the input signals is amplified more accurately.

[0008] In some possible implementations of the first aspect above, the modulation unit is used to connect the first output node and the output end of the modulation unit when receiving a first control signal, and is used to connect the second output node and the output end of the modulation unit when receiving a second control signal.

[0009] It can be understood that the modulation unit can alternately receive the first control signal and the second control signal, thereby alternately connecting the first output node and the second output node, so as to periodically and alternately output the first difference signal and the second difference signal.

[0011] In some embodiments, the clock signal is a periodic square wave signal with a duty cycle of 50%, the first control signal includes the clock signal at a first level and the inverted clock signal at a second level; the second control signal includes the clock signal at a second level and the inverted clock signal at a first level; the first level and the second level are different.

At this time, the first output node can be connected to the output end of the modulation unit, and the second output node can be connected to the feedback end of the modulation unit. Similarly, in the t2 time period, the modulation unit receives the second control signal. At this time, the second output node can be connected to the output end of the modulation unit, and the first output node can be connected to the feedback end of the modulation unit. Therefore, the output end of the amplification module can alternately output the first difference signal and the second difference signal, thereby offsetting the difference between the first amplification unit and the second amplification unit and reducing the offset voltage generated in the amplification module.

[0044] Illustrative embodiments of the present application include, but are not limited to, operational amplifier circuits, chips, and electronic devices.

[0045] The operational amplifier circuit provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to any electronic device, including but not limited to a mobile station (MS), a mobile terminal (MT), etc. For example, the electronic device can be a mobile phone, a smart TV, a wearable device, a tablet computer (Pad), a desktop computer, a laptop computer, a virtual reality (VR) device, an augmented reality (AR) device, a terminal in industrial control, a terminal in autonomous driving, a terminal in remote medical surgery, a terminal in a smart grid, a terminal in transportation safety, a terminal in a smart city, a terminal in a smart home, etc. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific form of the electronic device.

[0046] It should be noted that the structure and working principle of the operational amplifier circuit are introduced below by taking the operational amplifier circuit as a folded common-source common-gate operational amplifier circuit as an example.

[0047] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 The present invention is a schematic diagram of the structure of an operational amplifier circuit 100a, which can be specifically a schematic diagram of the structure of a folded common source and common gate operational amplifier circuit. The operational amplifier circuit 100a includes an input module 110, a current source module 120, an amplifier module 130 and a current drain module 140, and the amplifier module 130 includes a first amplifier unit 131 and a second amplifier unit 132. The first end of the input module 110 is connected to the positive input terminal INP, the second end is connected to the negative input terminal INN, the third end is connected to the first end of the second amplifier unit 132 and the first end of the current drain module 140, and the fourth end is connected to the first end of the first amplifier unit 131 and the second end of the current drain module 140; the first end and the second end of the current source module 120 are respectively connected to the second end of the first amplifier unit 131 and the second end of the second amplifier unit 132; the third end of the second amplifier unit 132 is connected to the output terminal OUT, and the third end of the first amplifier unit 131 is connected to the third end of the current drain module 140 as the feedback end of the amplifier module 130. It can be seen that the operational amplifier circuit 100a is a circuit with dual-ended (ie, differential) input and single-ended output.

[0048] In the above operational amplifier circuit 100a, the amplification module 130 is used to amplify the difference between the input signal received by the positive input terminal INP and the input signal received by the negative input terminal INN. Specifically, the difference between the two input signals is expressed as a voltage difference at the positive input terminal INP and the negative input terminal INN. When the voltage of the positive input terminal INP is higher than the voltage of the negative input terminal INN, more current will flow through the second amplification unit 132 connected to the positive input terminal INP, and the current of the first amplification unit 131 connected to the negative input terminal INN will decrease. Since the first amplification unit 131 and the second amplification unit 132 are identical transistors in an ideal case, the current change of the first amplification unit 131 and the current change of the second amplification unit 132 will occur in a symmetrical manner, that is, the current of the first amplification unit 131 will decrease as much as the current of the second amplification unit 132 increases, and vice versa. The current change of the first amplification unit 131 or the current change of the second amplification unit 132 in the amplification module 130 will cause a change in the output voltage of the output terminal OUT, and the change in the output voltage corresponds to the amplified difference signal.

[0049] However, as mentioned above, due to process deviation, there are slight differences between the MOS tubes in the first amplifying unit 131 and the second amplifying unit 132, which makes the current change of the first amplifying unit 131 and the current change of the second amplifying unit 132 in the amplifying module 130 no longer occur in a symmetrical manner, that is, when there is no difference in the input signal, the output voltage of the circuit is not zero, and this non-zero output voltage is the offset voltage. Therefore, the voltage change at the output end is mixed with the offset voltage generated by the difference between the MOS tubes, so that the difference between the input signals is not accurate after amplification.

[0050] In order to solve the above problems, an embodiment of the present application provides an operational amplifier circuit, which includes an amplifier module, and the amplifier module includes a first amplifier unit, a second amplifier unit and a modulation unit; wherein the first amplifier unit is used to receive a first differential signal, and the second amplifier unit is used to receive a second differential signal; the first amplifier unit has a first output node, and the first amplifier unit outputs a first difference signal between the first differential signal and the second differential signal through the first output node; the second amplifier unit has a second output node, and the second amplifier unit outputs a second difference signal between the first differential signal and the second differential signal through the second output node; the modulation unit is connected to the first output node and the second output node respectively, and the output end of the modulation unit is the output end of the amplifier module, and the output end of the modulation unit is alternately connected to the first output node and the second output node to periodically alternately output the first difference signal and the second difference signal. Therefore, the modulation unit can offset the difference between the first amplifier unit and the second amplifier unit, thereby reducing the offset voltage generated in the amplifier module.

[0051] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0052] In this document, the reference numeral "100" followed by a letter is used to indicate different examples of operational amplifier circuits provided in the embodiments of the present application, for example, operational amplifier circuit 100b and operational amplifier circuit 100c are different examples of two operational amplifier circuits. In addition, it should be noted that the first end of any transistor (such as a MOS tube) mentioned in the present application refers to one of the source and the drain, and the second end refers to the other of the source and the drain. For example, the first end of the transistor (such as a MOS tube) can be a source, and the second end can be a drain, or the first end can be a drain, and the second end can be a source.

[0053] The following combination Figure 2A and Figure 2B The first embodiment of the operational amplifier circuit provided by the present application is described in detail.

[0054] Figure 2A According to some embodiments of the present application, a schematic diagram of the structure of an operational amplifier circuit 100b is shown. In the operational amplifier circuit 100b, by connecting the modulation unit 153 to the first output node N1 of the first amplifier unit 151 and the second output node N2 of the second amplifier unit 152, and making the output end of the modulation unit 153 alternately connected to the first output node N1 and the second output node N2, the difference between the first amplifier unit 151 and the second amplifier unit 152 is offset, so as to eliminate the offset voltage generated in the amplifier module 150.

[0055] refer to Figure 2A In some embodiments, the operational amplifier circuit 100b includes an input module 110, a current source module 120, a current drain module 140 and an amplifier module 150, and the amplifier module 150 includes a first amplifier unit 151, a second amplifier unit 152 and a modulation unit 153. The current source module 120 is connected to the first amplifier unit 151 and the second amplifier unit 152 respectively, the first end of the input module 110 is connected to the first input end INP of the operational amplifier circuit 100b, the second end of the input module 110 is connected to the second input end INN of the operational amplifier circuit 100b, the first end of the first amplifier unit 151 is connected to the third end of the input module 110 and the current drain module 140, so as to receive the first differential signal sent by the input module 110, and the first end of the second amplifier unit 152 is connected to the fourth end of the input module 110 and the current drain module 140, so as to receive the second differential signal sent by the input module 110.

[0056] In addition, in some embodiments, the first amplifier unit 151 has a first output node N1, and the first amplifier unit 151 outputs a first difference signal between the first differential signal and the second differential signal through the first output node N1, wherein the first difference signal includes both the voltage difference between the first differential signal and the second differential signal and the offset voltage generated in the first amplifier unit 151. The second amplifier unit 152 has a second output node N2, and the second amplifier unit 152 outputs a second difference signal between the first differential signal and the second differential signal through the second output node N2, wherein the second difference signal includes both the voltage difference between the first differential signal and the second differential signal and the offset voltage generated in the second amplifier unit 152. The two input terminals of the modulation unit 153 are respectively connected to the first output node N1 and the second output node N2, and the output terminal of the modulation unit 153 is the output terminal of the amplification module 150, and the output terminal of the modulation unit 153 is alternately connected to the first output node N1 and the second output node N2, so as to periodically and alternately output the first difference signal and the second difference signal. Therefore, when the frequency of the periodically alternating output signal is high (for example, the frequency is higher than the frequencies of the first differential signal and the second differential signal), the output end of the amplification module 150 can output the average value between the first difference signal and the second difference signal, thereby offsetting the difference between the first amplification unit 151 and the second amplification unit 152 and reducing the offset voltage generated in the amplification module 150.

[0057] In some embodiments, the modulation unit 153 also includes a feedback terminal. The feedback terminal of the modulation unit 153 is connected to the current drain module 140, and the feedback terminal of the modulation unit 153 is alternately connected to the first output node N1 and the second output node N2, so as to periodically and alternately connect the first difference signal and the second difference signal to the feedback terminal, so as to realize the function of converting the differential input to the single-ended output in the amplification module 150. Specifically, when receiving the first control signal, the modulation unit 153 connects the first output node N1 and the output terminal of the modulation unit 153, and connects the second output node N2 and the feedback terminal of the modulation unit 153; when receiving the second control signal, the modulation unit 153 connects the second output node N2 and the output terminal of the modulation unit, and connects the first output node N1 and the feedback terminal of the modulation unit 153.

The first end of the first modulation transistor M23 and the first end of the third modulation transistor M25 are connected to the first output node N1, and the first end of the second modulation transistor M24 and the first end of the fourth modulation transistor M26 are connected to the second output node N2; the second end of the first modulation transistor M23 and the second end of the second modulation transistor M24 are connected to the output end of the modulation unit 153, and the second end of the third modulation transistor M25 and the second end of the fourth modulation transistor M26 are connected to the feedback end of the modulation unit 153; the gate of the first modulation transistor M23 and the gate of the fourth modulation transistor M26 are used to receive the inverted clock signal CLKN, and the gate of the second modulation transistor M24 and the gate of the third modulation transistor M25 are used to receive the clock signal CLK.

[0060] In some embodiments, the first end of the first modulation transistor M23, the first end of the second modulation transistor M24, the first end of the third modulation transistor M25, and the first end of the fourth modulation transistor M26 can all be drains, and the second end of the first modulation transistor M23, the second end of the second modulation transistor M24, the second end of the third modulation transistor M25, and the second end of the fourth modulation transistor M26 can all be sources.

[0061] refer to Figure 2C , Figure 2C The waveform diagram of a clock signal CLK and an inverted clock signal CLKN is shown. The clock signal CLK and the inverted clock signal CLKN are both periodic square wave signals with a duty cycle of 50%, that is, t1=t2. The first control signal includes the clock signal CLK at a first level and the inverted clock signal CLKN at a second level. The second control signal includes the clock signal CLK at a second level and the inverted clock signal CLKN at a first level. Of the first level and the second level, one is a high level and the other is a low level.

[0062] In some embodiments, continue to refer to Figure 2B and Figure 2C, the first modulation transistor M23, the second modulation transistor M24, the third modulation transistor M25 and the fourth modulation transistor M26 are all NMOS tubes. At this time, the first level is less than the second level, that is, the first level is a low level and the second level is a high level. For example, in the time period t1, the modulation unit 153 receives the first control signal, the clock signal CLK is the first level, that is, the low level, and the inverted clock signal CLKN is the second level, that is, the high level. Therefore, the first modulation transistor M23 and the fourth modulation transistor M26 are turned on, and the second modulation transistor M24 and the third modulation transistor M25 are turned off. At this time, the first output node N1 is connected to the output end of the modulation unit 153, and the second output node N2 is connected to the feedback end of the modulation unit 153. Similarly, in the time period t2, the modulation unit 153 receives the second control signal, the first modulation transistor M23 and the fourth modulation transistor M26 are turned off, the second modulation transistor M24 and the third modulation transistor M25 are turned on, at this time, the second output node N2 is connected to the output end of the modulation unit 153, and the first output node N1 is connected to the feedback end of the modulation unit 153. Therefore, the output end of the amplification module 150 can alternately output the first difference signal and the second difference signal, so as to offset the difference between the first amplification unit 151 and the second amplification unit 152, and reduce the offset voltage generated in the amplification module 150.

[0063] It can be understood that in some other embodiments (not shown), the first modulation transistor M23, the second modulation transistor M24, the third modulation transistor M25 and the fourth modulation transistor M26 are all PMOS transistors. At this time, the positions of the clock signal CLK and the inverted clock signal CLKN are swapped. At this time, the principle of the modulation unit 153 is similar to the above process and will not be repeated here.

[0064] In some embodiments, continue to refer to Figure 2B The output end of the amplifying module 150 can be directly connected to the output end OUT of the operational amplifier circuit 100b.

[0065] In some embodiments, continue to refer to Figure 2B, the first amplifying unit 151 includes a first amplifying transistor M5 and a second amplifying transistor M7, the second amplifying unit 152 includes a third amplifying transistor M6 and a fourth amplifying transistor M8, the first amplifying transistor M5 and the third amplifying transistor M6 have the same doping type (for example, both are PMOS transistors), the second amplifying transistor M7 and the fourth amplifying transistor M8 have the same doping type (for example, both are NMOS transistors), and the first amplifying transistor and the second amplifying transistor have opposite doping types. Among them, the first end of the first amplifying transistor M5 and the first end of the second amplifying transistor M7 are both connected to the first output node N1, the first end of the third amplifying transistor M6 and the first end of the fourth amplifying transistor M8 are both connected to the second output node N2; the gate of the first amplifying transistor M5 and the gate of the third amplifying transistor M6 are both connected to the first bias voltage VB1, and the gate of the second amplifying transistor M7 and the gate of the fourth amplifying transistor M8 are both connected to the second bias voltage VB2. Therefore, in the above-mentioned first amplifying unit 151 and the second amplifying unit 152, the difference between the first amplifying transistor M5 and the third amplifying transistor M6, and the difference between the second amplifying transistor M7 and the fourth amplifying transistor M8 will both generate an offset voltage. The modulation unit 153 is set on the first output node N1 and the second output node N2 to reduce the above-mentioned offset voltage, thereby improving the amplification accuracy of the amplifying module 150.

[0066] It should be noted that, in some other embodiments, the first amplifying transistor M5, the second amplifying transistor M7, the third amplifying transistor M6 and the fourth amplifying transistor M8 may all be bipolar junction transistors (BJT), which may also be called triodes. Compared with MOS transistors, triodes are more stable in terms of process deviation, especially the base-emitter voltage (VBE) of the triode has a smaller deviation relative to the threshold voltage (Vth) of the MOS transistor, so that the first amplifying transistor M5, the second amplifying transistor M7, the third amplifying transistor M6 and the fourth amplifying transistor M8 can be set as triodes, which can further reduce the offset voltage generated by the amplifying module, so that the offset voltage reaches the μV level.

For example, in the time period t1, the modulation unit 153 receives the first control signal, the clock signal CLK is the first level, that is, a high level, and the inverted clock signal CLKN is the second level, that is, a low level. Therefore, the first modulation transistor M23 and the fourth modulation transistor M26 are turned off, and the second modulation transistor M24 and the third modulation transistor M25 are turned on.
