The gate of the eighth NMOS transistor M10 is electrically connected to the fourth node d, and the drain of the eighth NMOS transistor M10 is connected to the input signal V IN .

[0051] The compensation circuit module 300 may include a fourth PMOS transistor M14, an eleventh NMOS transistor M15, a twelfth NMOS transistor M16, a thirteenth NMOS transistor M17, a fourteenth NMOS transistor M18 and a third capacitor C3.

The source of the thirteenth NMOS transistor M17 is electrically connected to the source of the eighth NMOS transistor M10, the gate of the thirteenth NMOS transistor M17 is electrically connected to the fifth node e, and the drain of the thirteenth NMOS transistor M17 is connected to the power supply V DD The source of the fourteenth NMOS transistor M18 is grounded, the gate of the fourteenth NMOS transistor M18 is connected to the clock signal CLKN, and the drain of the fourteenth NMOS transistor M18 is electrically connected to the fifth node e.

[0054] The specific principles of this embodiment are as follows:

[0055] See also Figure 1 , when the clock signal CLK is at a high level and the clock signal CLKN is at a low level, the gate voltage bootstrap switch enters the holding stage. At this time, the first NMOS tube M1 is turned on, pulling the first node a down to the ground. According to the principle of the charge pump boost module 200, at this time, the right plate voltage of the second capacitor C2 is about 2VDD, so the seventh NMOS tube M9 is fully turned on and the threshold loss can be ignored, so that the right plate of the first capacitor C1 (i.e., the second end of the first capacitor C1) is fully charged to the voltage V DD , turning on the first PMOS tube M2 and pulling the second node b up to the power supply voltage V DD Therefore, the second PMOS tube M3 is turned off, the third NMOS tube M5 is turned off, the sixth NMOS tube M8 is turned on, and the fifth NMOS tube M7 is turned on, pulling the fourth node d down to ground. Therefore, the second NMOS tube M4 and the fourth NMOS tube M6 are turned off. At this time, the gate voltage bootstrap switch enters the holding state, and the first capacitor C1 is charged to about V by the first NMOS tube M1 and the seventh NMOS tube M9. DD At the same time, the bootstrap capacitor (ie, the first capacitor C1) is isolated from the MOS sampling switch (ie, the eighth NMOS tube M10), the eighth NMOS tube M10 remains turned off, and the output signal is maintained.

[0056] When the clock signal CLKN is at a high level and the clock signal CLK is at a low level, the gate voltage bootstrap switch enters the sampling phase. At this time, the first NMOS tube M1 is turned off, the third NMOS tube M5 is turned on, and the second node b is pulled down to a low level. The second PMOS tube M3 is turned on, and the right plate of the first capacitor C1 is connected to the gate of the NMOS tube M10. Since the second PMOS tube M3 is turned on, the fourth node d is pulled up to the power supply, so the second NMOS tube M4 is turned on, so that the left plate of the first capacitor C1 (i.e., the first end of the first capacitor C1) is connected to the drain of the NMOS tube M10. Since the fourth node d is at a high level, the fourth NMOS tube M6 is turned on, and this process accelerates the pulling down of the second node b. At the same time, the fourth NMOS tube M6 also exists as a switch startup circuit. It can be seen from the working process of the charge pump boost module 200 that at this time, the voltage of the right plate of the second capacitor C2 is V DD Therefore, the seventh NMOS tube M9 is turned off, the fifth NMOS tube M7 is turned on, the sixth NMOS tube M8 is turned off, and the first PMOS tube M2 is turned off. At this time, the gate voltage bootstrap switch enters the sampling stage, and the bootstrap capacitor is connected across the gate and drain of the eighth NMOS tube M10, so that the on-resistance of the gate voltage bootstrap switch remains constant.

[0057] When the gate voltage bootstrap switch is in the sampling stage, its on-resistance R on The calculation formula is as follows:

[0058]

[0059] Among them, μ n represents the carrier mobility; C OX represents the unit area gate capacitance of the eighth NMOS tube M10; W / L represents the width-to-length ratio of the eighth NMOS tube M10; V GS represents the gate-source voltage of the eighth NMOS tube M10; V DD Indicates the voltage of the power supply; V TH represents the turn-on threshold voltage of the eighth NMOS tube M10.

[0060] The conventional gate voltage bootstrap switch solves the problem that the on-resistance changes with the input signal. However, the linearity of the gate voltage switch is not only affected by the resistance, but also by the capacitance. When the bootstrap switch switches between the sampling stage and the holding stage, due to the feedthrough effect of the clock, there will be charges transferred from the gate of the eighth NMOS tube M10 to its source and drain terminals, thereby causing errors related to the signal. This error cannot be eliminated by the differential circuit. For example, when the gate voltage bootstrap switch changes from the sampling stage to the holding stage, the gate voltage of the eighth NMOS tube M10 quickly changes from V DD +V INWhen the clock turns to 0, due to the clock feedthrough effect, an error voltage V will be generated at the output, which is calculated as follows:

[0061]

[0062] Among them, C ov10 represents the overlapping capacitance between the gate, drain and source of the eighth NMOS tube M10; C h Represents the capacitance of the load capacitor C4 driven by the gate voltage bootstrap switch; V IN Indicates the voltage of the input signal. The error voltage V is related to the power supply V DD The component can be eliminated by the differential circuit, but the input signal V IN The component is related to the input signal, which will cause the nonlinearity of the system and needs to be eliminated by the compensation circuit.

[0063] In the compensation circuit module 300, the thirteenth NMOS transistor M17 is a dummy transistor with the same size as the eighth NMOS transistor M10, and it is always turned off. IN The eleventh NMOS tube M15 is synchronously sampled on the third capacitor C3, and the gate of the thirteenth NMOS tube M17 is pulled down to the ground. When transitioning to the holding stage, the eleventh NMOS tube M15 and the fourteenth NMOS tube M18 are immediately disconnected, and the gate of the thirteenth NMOS tube M17 is pulled up to the input signal V by the third capacitor C3 through the twelfth NMOS tube M16 and the fourth PMOS tube M14. IN At this time, due to the clock feedthrough effect of the thirteenth NMOS tube M17, according to the principle of charge conservation, it can be concluded that the compensation voltage V generated at the output c for:

[0064]

[0065] Among them, C ov17 = represents the overlapping capacitance between the gate, drain and source of the thirteenth NMOS transistor M17. Since the thirteenth NMOS transistor M17 and the eighth NMOS transistor M10 have the same size, their overlapping capacitances are almost the same, that is, C ov17 =C ov10 Therefore, most of the nonlinear errors can be compensated by the compensation circuit module 300, thereby improving the linearity of the gate voltage bootstrap switch.

[0066] In this embodiment, in order to solve the nonlinear error caused by the clock feedthrough effect, a compensation circuit module 300 is added on the basis of the traditional gate voltage bootstrap switch, and the nonlinear error caused by the clock feedthrough effect is offset by adding the compensation circuit module 300. In the compensation circuit module 300, a dummy transistor with the same size as the MOS sampling switch is newly introduced. When undergoing the sampling and holding stage, the clock feedthrough effect of the dummy transistor and the clock feedthrough effect of the sampling tube are offset, thereby greatly reducing the nonlinear error caused by the component of the input signal. In addition, this embodiment does not change the architecture of the traditional gate voltage bootstrap switch, but only improves the linearity by introducing several MOS tubes, which saves transistor overhead while not affecting the overall operation of the sampling system.

[0067] The above embodiments only express the preferred implementation modes of the present invention, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the invention patent. It should be pointed out that, for those of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present invention shall be subject to the attached claims.
