[0048] An embodiment of the present invention provides a high-voltage switch tube driving power supply, as Figure 1 shown. The driving power supply includes: a power supply circuit 10, a first low-voltage driving signal generating circuit 20, a second low-voltage driving signal generating circuit 30, a first low-voltage driving transistor Mq1, and a second low-voltage driving transistor Mq2. The power supply circuit 10 is used to generate a first power supply voltage LV1 and a second power supply voltage LV2. The first power supply voltage LV1 serves as the ground voltage of the first low-voltage driving signal generating circuit 20, and the second power supply voltage LV2 serves as the power supply voltage of the second low-voltage driving signal generating circuit 30. The second low-voltage driving signal generating circuit 30 is used to receive an input signal.
[0049] When the input signal is a high-level signal, the second low-voltage driving signal generating circuit 30 is in a first working state according to the high-level signal, and generates a low-level second low-voltage driving signal to control the second low-voltage driving transistor Mq2 to turn off. The first low-voltage driving signal generating circuit 20 generates a low-level first low-voltage driving signal according to the second low-voltage driving signal generating circuit 30 in the first working state, the high-voltage signal generated by an external power supply, and the first power supply voltage to control the first low-voltage driving transistor Mq1 to turn on, and the gate-source voltage difference of the first low-voltage driving transistor Mq1 is the difference between the high-voltage signal and the first power supply voltage LV1.
[0050] When the input signal is a low-level signal, the second low-voltage driving signal generating circuit 30 is in a second working state according to the low-level signal, and generates a high-level second low-voltage driving signal to control the second low-voltage driving transistor Mq2 to turn on, and the gate-source voltage difference of the second low-voltage driving transistor Mq2 is the second power supply voltage LV2. The first low-voltage driving signal generating circuit 20 generates a high-level first low-voltage driving signal according to the second low-voltage driving signal generating circuit 30 in the second working state, the high-voltage signal generated by an external power supply, and the first power supply voltage to control the first low-voltage driving transistor Mq1 to turn off.
[0051] Among them, the first end of the power supply circuit 10 is connected to an external power supply, the first end of the first low-voltage drive signal generation circuit 20, and the first end of the first low-voltage drive transistor Mq1. The second end of the power supply circuit 10 is connected to the second end of the first low-voltage drive signal generation circuit 20. The third end of the power supply circuit 10 is connected to the first end of the second low-voltage drive signal generation circuit 30. The fourth end of the power supply circuit 10 is grounded.
[0052] The third end of the first low-voltage drive signal generation circuit 20 is connected to the second end of the first low-voltage drive transistor Mq1. The third end of the first low-voltage drive transistor Mq1 is connected to an external circuit to be driven 50. The fourth end of the first low-voltage drive signal generation circuit 20 is connected to the second end of the second low-voltage drive signal generation circuit 30. The fifth end of the first low-voltage drive signal generation circuit 20 is connected to the third end of the second low-voltage drive signal generation circuit 30.
[0053] The fourth end of the second low-voltage drive signal generation circuit 30 receives an input signal IN. The fifth end of the second low-voltage drive signal generation circuit 30 is grounded. The sixth end of the second low-voltage drive signal generation circuit 30 is connected to the first end of the second low-voltage drive transistor Mq2. The second end of the second low-voltage drive transistor Mq2 is grounded. The third end of the second low-voltage drive transistor Mq2 is connected to an external circuit to be driven 50.
[0054] Specifically, in this high-voltage switch transistor drive power supply, a power supply circuit, a first low-voltage drive signal generation circuit, and a second low-voltage drive signal generation circuit are provided. The two low-voltage drive signal generation circuits respectively control the two low-voltage drive transistors to conduct or turn off based on a high-voltage signal provided by an external power supply and a power supply voltage provided by the power supply circuit. Although a high-voltage signal generated by an external power supply is also used in this drive power supply, the two drive transistors are not directly driven by this high voltage. Among them, when driving the first low-voltage drive transistor to conduct, the gate-source voltage difference of the first low-voltage drive transistor is made to be the difference between the high-voltage signal and the first power supply voltage through the settings of the power supply circuit and the first low-voltage drive signal generation circuit. When driving the second low-voltage drive transistor to conduct, the gate-source voltage difference of the second low-voltage drive transistor is made to be the second power supply voltage through the settings of the power supply circuit and the second low-voltage drive signal generation circuit. In practical applications, by adjusting the parameters of the power supply circuit, the gate-source voltage differences of both can be made less than the high-voltage signal, that is, both low-voltage drive transistors can use switch transistors with a lower breakdown voltage. At the same time, when the first low-voltage drive transistor conducts, the high-voltage signal provided by the external power supply can also be introduced into the external circuit to be driven to drive the high-voltage switch transistor in the external circuit to be driven. This external circuit to be driven can be an external power circuit or other circuits as long as it includes the high-voltage switch transistor to be driven.
[0055] Therefore, in the present invention, by providing a power supply circuit, a first low-voltage driving signal generation circuit, and a second low-voltage driving signal generation circuit, the gate-source voltage difference when the first low-voltage driving transistor is turned on can be the difference between the high-voltage signal and the first power supply voltage; the gate-source voltage difference when the second low-voltage driving transistor is turned on can be the second power supply voltage. That is, both switching transistors in this driving power supply can use low-voltage driving transistors, reducing the cost and power consumption of the driving power supply and decreasing the volume of the driving power supply.
[0056] In an alternative embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the second low-voltage driving signal generation circuit includes: a seventh inverter A7, an eighth inverter A8, a ninth inverter A9, a seventh switching transistor M7, and an eighth switching transistor M8. The power supply voltage of the seventh inverter A7, the eighth inverter A8, and the ninth inverter A9 is the second power supply voltage LV2, and the ground voltage is the grounding voltage; the input terminal of the seventh inverter A7 receives an input signal, the output terminal of the seventh inverter A7 is connected to the input terminal of the eighth inverter A8, the output terminal of the eighth inverter A8 is connected to the first terminal of the seventh switching transistor M7 and the input terminal of the ninth inverter A9, the second terminal of the seventh switching transistor M7 is grounded, the third terminal of the seventh switching transistor M7 is connected to the fourth terminal of the first low-voltage driving signal generation circuit, the output terminal of the ninth inverter A9 is connected to the first terminal of the eighth switching transistor M8 and the first terminal of the second low-voltage driving transistor Mq2, the second terminal of the eighth switching transistor M8 is grounded, and the third terminal of the eighth switching transistor M8 is connected to the fifth terminal of the first low-voltage driving signal generation circuit.
[0057] According to actual requirements, the second low-voltage driving signal generation circuit further includes: a tenth inverter A10 and an eleventh inverter A11. The power supply voltage of the tenth inverter A10 and the eleventh inverter A11 is the second power supply voltage LV2, and the ground voltage is the grounding voltage. The input terminal of the tenth inverter A10 is connected to the first terminal of the eighth switching transistor M8 and the output terminal of the ninth inverter A9, the output terminal of the tenth inverter A10 is connected to the input terminal of the eleventh inverter A11, and the output terminal of the eleventh inverter A11 is connected to the first terminal of the second low-voltage driving transistor Mq2. Specifically, in practical applications, when there are special requirements for the turn-on and turn-off times of the high-voltage switching transistor in the externally to-be-driven circuit and a large-current drive is required from this driving power supply, in addition to changing the breakdown voltage capability of the second low-voltage driving transistor Mq2, inverters can also be added to the circuit to improve the current capability of this driving power supply.
[0058] Specifically, the second low-voltage drive signal generation circuit uses the second supply voltage LV2 as the power supply voltage and the ground voltage as the ground voltage. That is to say, in the second low-voltage drive signal generation circuit, the power supply voltage of multiple inverters is the second supply voltage LV2, and the ground voltage is the ground voltage. For an inverter, the power supply voltage and the ground voltage determine its logic swing, that is, when the inverter outputs a high level, it is close to the power supply voltage, and when it outputs a low level, it is close to the ground voltage. Further, whether the inverter can change the level of its input signal is also related to its flip threshold voltage. Usually, the flip threshold voltage of an inverter is close to half of the power supply voltage.
[0059] Based on this, taking the second low-voltage drive signal generation circuit including the tenth inverter A10 and the eleventh inverter A11 as an example, the working principle of the second low-voltage drive signal generation circuit is described as follows:
[0060] When the input signal is a high-level signal greater than the flip threshold voltage of the seventh inverter A7, the input signal passing through the seventh inverter A7 is inverted, that is, the seventh inverter A7 outputs a low-level signal, the eighth inverter A8 outputs a high-level signal, the ninth inverter A9 outputs a low-level signal, the tenth inverter A10 outputs a high-level signal, and the eleventh inverter A11 outputs a low-level signal. At the same time, the high-level signal output by the eighth inverter A8 makes the seventh switch tube M7 conduct, the low-level signal output by the ninth inverter A9 makes the eighth switch tube M8 turn off, and the low-level signal output by the eleventh inverter A11 makes the second low-voltage drive tube Mq2 turn off. That is, when the second low-voltage drive signal generation circuit is in the first working state, the seventh switch tube M7 conducts and the eighth switch tube M8 turns off.
[0061] When the input signal is a low-level signal less than the flip threshold voltage of the seventh inverter A7, the input signal passing through the seventh inverter A7 is inverted, that is, the seventh inverter A7 outputs a high-level signal, the eighth inverter A8 outputs a low-level signal, the ninth inverter A9 outputs a high-level signal, the tenth inverter A10 outputs a low-level signal, and the eleventh inverter A11 outputs a high-level signal. At the same time, the low-level signal output by the eighth inverter A8 makes the seventh switch tube M7 turn off, the high-level signal output by the ninth inverter A9 makes the eighth switch tube M8 conduct, and the high-level signal output by the eleventh inverter A11 makes the second low-voltage drive tube Mq2 conduct. That is, when the second low-voltage drive signal generation circuit is in the second working state, the seventh switch tube M7 turns off and the eighth switch tube M8 conducts.
[0062] In an alternative embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, the first low-voltage drive signal generation circuit 20 includes: a first trigger signal generation circuit 21, a second trigger signal generation circuit 22, and a drive signal generation circuit 23;

[0068] And / or, the second trigger signal generating circuit 22 includes a fourth switching transistor M4, a fifth switching transistor M5, a sixth switching transistor M6, a second inverter A2, and a fourth inverter A4.

The output terminal of the fourth inverter A4 is connected to the input terminal of the second inverter A2 and the fourth terminal of the driving signal generating circuit 23. The output terminal of the second inverter A2 is connected to the fourth terminal of the first trigger signal generating circuit 21.
[0070] Specifically, the driving signal generating circuit 23 includes: an RS flip-flop B1. The set terminal of the RS flip-flop B1 is connected to the sixth terminal of the first trigger signal generating circuit 21. The reset terminal of the RS flip-flop B1 is connected to the sixth terminal of the second trigger signal generating circuit 22. The in-phase output terminal of the RS flip-flop B1 is connected to the second terminal of the first driving switching transistor. Additionally, in addition to this connection method, a twelfth inverter can also be connected between the inverted output terminal of the RS flip-flop B1 and the first driving switching transistor to achieve the same function.
[0071] Specifically, the drive signal generation circuit 23 further includes: a fifth inverter A5 and a sixth inverter A6. The power supply voltage of the fifth inverter A5 and the sixth inverter A6 is a high voltage signal, and the ground voltage is the first supply voltage. The input terminal of the fifth inverter A5 is connected to the non-inverting output terminal of the RS flip-flop B1. The output terminal of the fifth inverter A5 is connected to the input terminal of the sixth inverter A6. The output terminal of the sixth inverter A6 is connected to the second terminal of the first drive switch tube. Similar to the first low-voltage drive signal generation circuit 20, in practical applications, when there are special requirements for the conduction and turn-off time of the high-voltage switch tube in the external circuit to be driven, it is necessary for this drive power supply to output a large-current drive. At this time, in addition to changing the breakdown voltage resistance of the first low-voltage drive transistor Mq1, an inverter can also be added to the circuit to improve the current capacity of this drive power supply.
[0072] Taking the first low-voltage drive signal generation circuit 20 including the fifth inverter A5 and the sixth inverter A6 as an example, the working principle of the first low-voltage drive signal generation circuit 20 will be described as follows:
[0073] When the second low-voltage drive signal generation circuit 30 is in the first working state, that is, the seventh switch tube is conducting and the eighth switch tube is turned off, the conducting seventh switch tube pulls down the drain of the third switch tube M3. At the same time, the first supply voltage generated by the power supply circuit is input to the gate of the third switch tube M3. Then the third switch tube M3 operates in the saturation region, and a current flowing from the source to the drain is generated inside it. Therefore, the source voltage of the third switch tube M3 (voltage at point A) is pulled down. Also, since the gate voltage of the third switch tube M3 is the first supply voltage, the source voltage of the third switch tube M3 is clamped at VGS3 + LV1, where VGS3 is the gate-source voltage difference of the third switch tube M3. And, the ground voltage of the first inverter A1 is the first supply voltage. Therefore, if the switching threshold voltage of the first inverter A1 is designed to be greater than the gate-source voltage difference of the third switch tube M3, the input voltage of the first inverter A1, that is, the voltage at point A, is a low-level signal. The output voltage of the first inverter A1 is a high-level signal, the output voltage of the third inverter A3 is a low-level signal, and this low-level signal is input to the gate of the fifth switch tube M5, making the fifth switch tube M5 in the off state. At the same time, the fourth switch tube M4 is made to conduct, and the eighth switch tube is in the off state, then the sixth switch tube M6 is also in the off state. Thus, the input voltage of the fourth inverter A4 is pulled up through the fourth switch tube M4, and the fourth inverter A4 outputs a low-level signal. The second inverter A2 outputs a high-level signal, and this high-level signal makes the second switch tube M2 conduct and the first switch tube M1 turn off, thereby further pulling down the voltage at point A to the first supply voltage.
[0074] Based on the above analysis, when the input signal is a high-level signal and the second low-voltage drive signal generation circuit 30 is in the first working state, the first inverter A1 outputs a high-level signal to the set terminal of the RS flip-flop B1, and the fourth inverter A4 outputs a low-level signal to the reset terminal of the RS flip-flop B1. Thus, a low-level signal is output from the in-phase output terminal of the RS flip-flop B1. After the current driving ability of this low-level signal is enhanced by the fifth inverter A5 and the sixth inverter A6, a low-level signal with a stronger input current driving ability is input to the first low-voltage drive transistor Mq1, causing the first low-voltage drive transistor Mq1 to conduct. At the same time, when the second low-voltage drive signal is in the first working state, the second low-voltage drive transistor Mq2 is turned off. Therefore, the drive signal output by the high-voltage switch transistor drive power supply is pulled up to the high voltage generated by the external power supply by the first low-voltage drive transistor Mq1.
[0075] Moreover, the gate voltage of the first low-voltage drive transistor Mq1 is the low-level signal output by the sixth inverter A6 (according to the above analysis, this low-level signal is the ground voltage of the sixth inverter A6, that is, the first supply voltage), and the source voltage of the first low-voltage drive transistor Mq1 is a high-voltage signal. Therefore, the gate-source voltage difference of the first low-voltage drive transistor Mq1 is the difference between the high-voltage signal and the first supply voltage, and the second low-voltage drive transistor is turned off, and its gate-source voltage difference is 0. Further, when there are no special requirements for the on-off time of the high-voltage switch transistor of the external circuit to be driven, small-current drive can be adopted. Therefore, at this time, the first low-voltage drive transistor Mq1 with a small breakdown voltage can be used. When there are special requirements for the on-off time of the high-voltage switch transistor of the external circuit to be driven, relatively large-current drive is required. Therefore, at this time, the first low-voltage drive transistor Mq1 with a large breakdown voltage can be used. Therefore, the magnitude of the first supply voltage generated by the power supply circuit can be adjusted according to the actual requirements of the circuit, so as to adapt to low-voltage drive transistors with any breakdown voltage value.
[0076] When the second low-voltage driving signal generating circuit 30 is in the second working state, that is, the seventh switching tube is turned off and the eighth switching tube is turned on, the turned-on eighth switching tube pulls down the drain of the sixth switching tube M6. At the same time, the first supply voltage generated by the power supply circuit is input to the gate of the sixth switching tube M6. Then, the sixth switching tube M6 operates in the saturation region, and a current flowing from the source to the drain is generated inside it. Therefore, the source voltage of the sixth switching tube M6 (the voltage at point B) is pulled down. Also, since the gate voltage of the sixth switching tube M6 is the first supply voltage, the source voltage of the sixth switching tube M6 is clamped at VGS6 + LV1, where VGS6 is the gate-source voltage difference of the sixth switching tube M6. And, the ground voltage of the fourth inverter A4 is the first supply voltage. Therefore, if the flip-flop threshold voltage of the fourth inverter A4 is designed to be greater than the gate-source voltage difference of the sixth switching tube M6, the input voltage of the fourth inverter A4, that is, the voltage at point B, is a low-level signal. The output voltage of the fourth inverter A4 is a high-level signal, and the output voltage of the second inverter A2 is a low-level signal. This low-level signal is input to the gate of the second switching tube M2, making the second switching tube M2 turn off. At the same time, the first switching tube M1 is turned on, and the seventh switching tube is turned off, then the third switching tube M3 is also turned off. Thus, the input voltage of the first inverter A1 is pulled up through the first switching tube M1, and the first inverter A1 outputs a low-level signal, and the third inverter A3 outputs a high-level signal. This high-level signal makes the fifth switching tube M5 turn on and the fourth switching tube M4 turn off, thereby further pulling down the voltage at point B to the first supply voltage.
[0077] Based on the above analysis, it can be seen that when the input signal is a low-level signal and the second low-voltage driving signal generating circuit 30 is in the second working state, the first inverter A1 outputs a low-level signal to the set terminal of the RS flip-flop B1, and the fourth inverter A4 outputs a high-level signal to the reset terminal of the RS flip-flop B1. Thus, the non-inverting output terminal of the RS flip-flop B1 outputs a high-level signal. After the current driving ability is enhanced through the fifth inverter A5 and the sixth inverter A6, a high-level signal with a stronger current driving ability is input to the first low-voltage driving tube Mq1, making the first low-voltage driving tube Mq1 turn off. At the same time, when the second low-voltage driving signal is in the second working state, the second low-voltage driving tube is turned on. Therefore, the driving signal output by the high-voltage switching tube driving power supply is pulled down to the ground voltage by the second low-voltage driving tube.
[0078] Moreover, the gate voltage of the second low-voltage driving transistor is the high-level signal output by the eleventh inverter (as can be seen from the above analysis, this high-level signal is the power supply voltage of the eleventh inverter, i.e., the second supply voltage), and the source voltage of the second low-voltage driving transistor is the ground voltage. Therefore, the gate-source voltage difference of the second low-voltage driving transistor is the second supply voltage, and the first low-voltage driving transistor Mq1 is turned off, and its gate-source voltage difference is 0. Further, when there are no special requirements for the conduction and turn-off times of the high-voltage switching transistor of the external circuit to be driven, small-current driving can be adopted. Therefore, at this time, a second low-voltage driving transistor with a small breakdown voltage can be used. When there are special requirements for the conduction and turn-off times of the high-voltage switching transistor of the external circuit to be driven, relatively large-current driving is required. Therefore, at this time, a second low-voltage driving transistor with a large breakdown voltage can be used. Therefore, according to the actual requirements of the circuit, the magnitude of the second supply voltage generated by the power supply circuit can be adjusted to adapt to low-voltage driving transistors with any breakdown voltage value.
[0079] As Figure 4 shown, it is the correlation waveform diagram of the input signal IN and the driving signal OT. Among them, the high-level voltage of the input signal IN is LV2, and the high-level voltage of the driving signal OT reaches the high voltage HV. Therefore, this high-voltage switching transistor drives the input signal with a low voltage and outputs the driving signal with a high voltage to drive the high-voltage switching transistor of the external circuit to be driven.
[0080] In an alternative embodiment, as Figure 5 shown, the power supply circuit includes: a first resistor R1, a second resistor R2, a third resistor R3, a fourth resistor R4, a first voltage-regulator diode D1, a second voltage-regulator diode D2, a ninth switching transistor M9, and a tenth switching transistor M10;
[0081] One end of the first resistor R1 is connected to the external power supply, the negative electrode of the first voltage-regulator diode D1, one end of the third resistor R3, and the first end of the tenth switching transistor M10. The other end of the first resistor R1 is connected to the first end of the ninth switching transistor M9 and the second end of the first low-voltage driving signal generation circuit. The second end of the ninth switching transistor M9 is connected to the positive electrode of the first voltage-regulator diode D1 and one end of the second resistor R2. The third end of the ninth switching transistor M9 is connected to the other end of the second resistor R2, the positive electrode of the second voltage-regulator diode D2, one end of the fourth resistor R4 and grounded; the other end of the third resistor R3 is connected to the second end of the tenth switching transistor M10 and the negative electrode of the second voltage-regulator diode D2. The third end of the tenth switching transistor M10 is connected to the other end of the fourth resistor R4 and the first end of the second low-voltage driving signal generation circuit. Among them, the reverse breakdown voltage of the first voltage-regulator diode D1 is VD1, the reverse breakdown voltage of the second voltage-regulator diode D2 is VD2, and , , VTH9 is the conduction threshold voltage of the ninth switching transistor M9, and VTH10 is the conduction threshold voltage of the tenth switching transistor M10.
[0082] According to the structure of this power supply circuit, its working principle is as follows:
[0083] When the circuit is powered on, a high-voltage signal is input into the power supply circuit. Since the high-voltage signal is higher than the reverse breakdown voltage VD1 of the first voltage regulator diode D1 and the reverse breakdown voltage VD2 of the second voltage regulator diode D2, both the first voltage regulator diode D1 and the second voltage regulator diode D2 are broken down. At this time, the gate voltage of the ninth switching transistor M9 is equal to , and since the source voltage of the ninth switching transistor M9 is HV, and , it can be obtained that the gate-source voltage difference of the ninth switching transistor M9 is greater than the conduction threshold voltage of the ninth switching transistor M9, and the ninth switching transistor M9 conducts. At this time, the source voltage of the ninth switching transistor M9, that is, the first supply voltage LV1, is clamped at ; at the same time, the gate voltage of the tenth switching transistor M10 is equal to , and since the source voltage of the tenth switching transistor M10 is GND, and , it can be obtained that the gate-source voltage difference of the tenth switching transistor M10 is greater than the conduction threshold voltage of the tenth switching transistor M10, and the tenth switching transistor M10 conducts. At this time, the source voltage of the tenth switching transistor M10, that is, the second supply voltage LV2, is clamped at .
[0084] It can be seen from the above analysis that when the input signal is at a high level, the gate-source voltage difference of the first low-voltage driving transistor Mq1 is , and the gate-source voltage difference of the second low-voltage driving transistor Mq2 is 0; when the input signal is at a low level, the gate-source voltage difference of the first low-voltage driving transistor Mq1 is 0, and the gate-source voltage difference of the second low-voltage driving transistor Mq2 is . Therefore, no matter what working state the driving power supply is in, the gate-source voltage difference of the low-voltage driving transistors is very low, far lower than the high voltage HV. Therefore, the first low-voltage driving transistor Mq1 and the second low-voltage driving transistor Mq2 can use switching transistors with a low gate-source voltage difference. Similarly, other switching transistors in this high-voltage switching transistor driving power supply can also use switching transistors with a low gate-source voltage difference.
[0085] Meanwhile, by selecting zener diodes with different reverse breakdown voltages, the regulation of the first supply voltage LV1 and the second supply voltage LV2 can be achieved. Moreover, since the threshold voltage of the MOS transistor remains constant after it is turned on, at this time, regardless of the operating state of the driving power supply, the first supply voltage LV1 and the second supply voltage LV2 are both constant values. At the same time, the supply current of the first low-voltage driving signal generation circuit flows directly from the first supply voltage terminal (i.e., the source of the ninth switching transistor M9) through the ninth switching transistor M9 into the control system ground terminal, and the supply current of the second low-voltage driving signal generation circuit directly flows from the high-voltage terminal through the tenth switching transistor M10 into the second supply voltage terminal (i.e., the source of the tenth switching transistor M10). Therefore, after setting this power supply circuit, the energy consumption during the operation of the high-voltage switching transistor driving power supply can be further reduced.
[0086] It should be noted that the switching transistors in the above circuit can be MOS transistors, and the low-voltage driving transistors refer to the driving transistors with relatively low gate-source breakdown voltage.
