Description
技术领域technical field
本发明涉及电压基准源技术领域,更具体地,涉及一种基于DIBL效应补偿的低功耗CMOS电压基准源。The present invention relates to the technical field of voltage reference sources, in particular to a low-power CMOS voltage reference source based on DIBL effect compensation.
背景技术Background technique
操作中消耗非常低的能量至关重要。然而,传统的带隙电压基准源在低电源电压和低功耗下难以工作,而且难以集成在更小的系统中例如可穿戴的智能设备,设计一款面积小的亚阈值电压基准源势在必行。亚阈值CMOS电压基准源经典的架构为皮安级电流流经有源负载产生基准电压,利用CMOS的阈值电压具有负温度系数特性有效补偿温度系数。特别注意的是,在典型的能量采集系统中,输入功率在不同环境下扰动较大,微型系统如传感器或接口电路的输出电压会产生较大偏差,上述系统的电压基准芯片需要能应对一个较宽的电源电压范围。与常规的亚阈值电压基准源相比,一款能抗电源电压变化的电压基准源对上述新兴应用更有吸引力,已成为国内外学术界和工业界的研究热点。Consuming very low energy in operation is critical. However, traditional bandgap voltage references are difficult to work with low power supply voltage and low power consumption, and it is difficult to integrate into smaller systems such as wearable smart devices. It is difficult to design a small-area sub-threshold voltage reference must do. The classic architecture of the sub-threshold CMOS voltage reference source generates a reference voltage for the picoampere-level current to flow through the active load, and the threshold voltage of CMOS has a negative temperature coefficient characteristic to effectively compensate the temperature coefficient. It is worth noting that in a typical energy harvesting system, the input power fluctuates greatly in different environments, and the output voltage of a micro system such as a sensor or an interface circuit will have a large deviation. The voltage reference chip of the above system needs to be able to cope with a relatively large Wide supply voltage range. Compared with conventional subthreshold voltage reference sources, a voltage reference source that can resist power supply voltage changes is more attractive for the above-mentioned emerging applications, and has become a research hotspot in academia and industry at home and abroad.
现有技术中公开一篇学术论文名为“A 48pW,0.34V,0.019%/V LineSensitivity Self-Biased Subthreshold Voltage Reference With DIBL EffectCompensation”,该论文发表于2020年IEEE TCAS I(电路与系统学报),其电路结构如图1所示。An academic paper titled "A 48pW, 0.34V, 0.019%/V LineSensitivity Self-Biased Subthreshold Voltage Reference With DIBL Effect Compensation" was published in the prior art, which was published in IEEE TCAS I (Journal of Circuits and Systems) in 2020. Its circuit structure is shown in Fig. 1.
图1所提出的电路结构是由电压自偏置电流产生电路、自级联晶体管输出基准电路以及DIBL效应补偿电路。它使用了两种类型的MOS晶体管:栅线较粗的晶体管为高阈值电压的5V晶体管,栅线较细的是低阈值的1.8V晶体管NMOS和PMOS。它的工作原理为:在VDD上升后,M5产生电流,偏置给M6的漏电流注入到自级联的有源负载M2和M3上,形成基准电压再自偏置M1,M1产生总电路所需的电流,基准电压最终趋于一个稳定值。M10~M12三个晶体管,作为基于DIBL效应补偿的电路,从输出支路吸收同样与电源变化正相关的电流,从而消除了DIBL效应,以提高线性灵敏度。(在电源电压范围0.6V~1.8V和温度范围0℃~100℃下工作,产生的基准电压VREF大小约为147.9mV,线性灵敏度为0.019%/V,面积为0.0332mm2)。The circuit structure proposed in Fig. 1 is composed of a voltage self-bias current generation circuit, a self-cascaded transistor output reference circuit and a DIBL effect compensation circuit. It uses two types of MOS transistors: the transistors with thicker gate lines are 5V transistors with high threshold voltage, and the ones with thinner gate lines are 1.8V transistors with low threshold NMOS and PMOS. Its working principle is: after V DD rises, M5 generates current, and the leakage current biased to M6 is injected into the self-cascaded active loads M2 and M3 to form a reference voltage and then self-bias M1, and M1 generates the total circuit The required current, the reference voltage eventually tends to a stable value. The three transistors M10-M12, as a circuit based on DIBL effect compensation, absorb the current that is also positively related to the power supply change from the output branch, thereby eliminating the DIBL effect and improving linearity sensitivity. (Working in the power supply voltage range of 0.6V~1.8V and the temperature range of 0°C~100°C, the generated reference voltage V REF is about 147.9mV, the linear sensitivity is 0.019%/V, and the area is 0.0332mm 2 ).
上述方案中,电流源产生管、核心输出支路的MOS管均需要较大的尺寸,需要占用较大的芯片面积;改善线性调整率,使用额外的运放会增加电路功耗,级联电流镜结构有效但会提高最小电源电压,不利于物联网的应用场景;消除短沟道晶体管的DIBL效应时,需要增大晶体管沟道长度,或需要提高DIBL效应补偿的精度。In the above solution, the current source generation tube and the MOS tube of the core output branch need to be larger in size and occupy a larger chip area; to improve the linear adjustment rate, the use of additional op amps will increase the power consumption of the circuit, and the cascaded current The mirror structure is effective but will increase the minimum power supply voltage, which is not conducive to the application scenario of the Internet of Things; when eliminating the DIBL effect of short-channel transistors, it is necessary to increase the channel length of the transistor, or to improve the accuracy of DIBL effect compensation.

The derivation process is as follows:
(一)电流I和电压基准REF的确定:(1) Determination of current I and voltage reference REF:
由于所有MOS晶体管都工作在亚阈值区,电流的亚阈值公式:Since all MOS transistors work in the subthreshold region, the subthreshold formula of the current is:
由(1)可得From (1) can get
如图3所示,MOS晶体管M5、M7为电流镜,M8和M9为电流镜,IB分流为IA与IC,则电流可表示为:As shown in Figure 3, MOS transistors M5 and M7 are current mirrors, M8 and M9 are current mirrors, and I B is shunted into I A and I C , then the current can be expressed as:
VB由自偏置级联的M3和M4阈值电压差得到: VB is obtained from the difference in threshold voltages of the self-biased cascade of M3 and M4:
考虑M2和M4的阈值电压的体效应,体效应公式如下:Considering the body effect of the threshold voltages of M2 and M4, the body effect formula is as follows:
假设工艺里的晶体管亚阈值因子n1≈n2≈n3≈n4,且NMOS管的迁移率相等,并将(2)(4)(5)结合,可得电压基准:Assuming that the transistor sub-threshold factor n 1 ≈n 2 ≈n 3 ≈n 4 in the process, and the mobility of the NMOS transistors are equal, and combining (2)(4)(5), the voltage reference can be obtained:
(二)实施例提出的电路工作原理为:电源接通后,M5被下拉导通,M2是电流发生器,它决定了核心支路的电流,并对其余分支产生电流自偏置。M3的漏极提供比基准电压略高的偏置电压VB,VB偏置M2并逐渐稳定,M2决定的皮安级电流IB流经有源负载M1,M1的栅源电压为输出基准电压VREF,最终趋于稳定。(2) The working principle of the circuit proposed in the embodiment is: after the power supply is turned on, M5 is pulled down and turned on, and M2 is a current generator, which determines the current of the core branch and generates current self-bias for the other branches. The drain of M3 provides a bias voltage V B slightly higher than the reference voltage, V B biases M2 and gradually stabilizes, the picoamp level current I B determined by M2 flows through the active load M1, and the gate-source voltage of M1 is the output reference voltage V REF , eventually stabilizes.
在式(1)-(6)中,K=W/L为MOS晶体管的宽长比;α为电流镜比例;VGS为MOS晶体管的栅源电压;I0为晶体管在饱和区状态下的电流;VTH为MOS晶体管的阈值电压;n为亚阈值斜率因子;VT为热电压;μ为载流子迁移率;COX为栅氧电容;VTH0为MOS晶体管不考虑体效应时的阈值;γ为体效应系数,β是为方便计算简化后的体效应因子;VSB为源衬电势差;In formulas (1)-(6), K = W/L is the width-to-length ratio of the MOS transistor; α is the ratio of the current mirror; V GS is the gate-source voltage of the MOS transistor; Current; V TH is the threshold voltage of the MOS transistor; n is the subthreshold slope factor; V T is the thermal voltage; μ is the carrier mobility; C OX is the gate oxide capacitance; Threshold; γ is the body effect coefficient, and β is the simplified body effect factor for the convenience of calculation; V SB is the source lining potential difference;
以上方案中,采用以下措施线性灵敏度的改善:In the above scheme, the following measures are adopted to improve the linear sensitivity:
(一)电路的Mc是级联晶体管,它保护电流源管M2免受VDD的干扰。(1) Mc in the circuit is a cascaded transistor, which protects the current source tube M2 from the interference of VDD.
(二)自调节电路,由MP5和MP7,MN8和MN9两对电流镜组成。目的为减弱M2管的DIBL效应,使得流经有源负载M1的电流不受VDD的影响。DIBL效应为随着VDD上升,在亚阈值区的短沟道晶体管的漏源电压会增加,电流会呈正系数地增长,其中M2管的电流IB在DIBL效应影响下可以表示为:(2) The self-regulating circuit is composed of two pairs of current mirrors, MP5 and MP7, MN8 and MN9. The purpose is to weaken the DIBL effect of the M2 tube, so that the current flowing through the active load M1 is not affected by VDD. The DIBL effect is that as the VDD rises, the drain-source voltage of the short-channel transistor in the subthreshold region will increase, and the current will increase with a positive coefficient. The current IB of the M2 tube under the influence of the DIBL effect can be expressed as:
IB,DIBL≈(1+mPVΔVDD)·IB,int (7)I B,DIBL ≈(1+m PV ΔV DD )·I B,int (7)
结合(2)(7),可得出在参考了DIBL效应影响下的IA:Combining (2)(7), it can be obtained that I A under the influence of the reference DIBL effect:
回顾线性灵敏度定义式LS=ΔVREF/(VREF·ΔVDD),减小线性灵敏度则减小ΔVREF,由(1)可得:Recalling the linear sensitivity definition formula LS=ΔV REF /(V REF ·ΔV DD ), reducing the linear sensitivity will reduce ΔV REF , from (1):
在式(9)中,mPV为正电压系数;Iint为不受DIBL效应影响下的原始电流,结合式子(9)分析,若流过有源负载M1的电流变化率Rchg=Imax/Imin接近于1,则可以使得表达式(9)的ΔVREF接近于0,则可以实现更好的线性灵敏度。结合式(8),通过电流发生器M2产生的正电压系数的电流IB自偏置给另外一条支路使其具有同样正电压系数的IC,使得流过有源负载的电流IA趋于稳定。由(8)可以总结出需要设计的自调节电路能够满足[(K5·K8-K7·K9)·mpv·ΔVDD]/(K5·K8)]越接近于0,调整电流镜宽长比,提高电流复制精度,使得电流变化率更接近于1,如图4所示。In the formula (9), m PV is the positive voltage coefficient; I int is the original current not affected by the DIBL effect, combined with the analysis of the formula (9), if the current change rate R chg = I If max /I min is close to 1, ΔV REF of the expression (9) can be made close to 0, and better linear sensitivity can be achieved. Combined with formula (8), the current I B with positive voltage coefficient generated by the current generator M2 is self-biased to another branch to have the same positive voltage coefficient I C , so that the current I A flowing through the active load tends to more stable. From (8), it can be concluded that the self-regulating circuit to be designed can satisfy [(K 5 ·K 8 -K 7 ·K 9 )· mpv ·ΔV DD ]/(K 5 ·K 8 )] the closer to 0, Adjust the width-to-length ratio of the current mirror to improve the accuracy of current replication, making the current change rate closer to 1, as shown in Figure 4.

Under the simulation, the simulation results show that the linear sensitivity, power consumption, area and other aspects have been greatly improved.

图5显示:不同工艺角下,当温度从-20℃变化到125℃时,VREF电压的变化范围最大为2.7mV,变化范围最小为1mV。表明基准电压在各个工艺角下都几乎不受温度的影响。Figure 5 shows: under different process angles, when the temperature changes from -20°C to 125°C, the maximum variation range of VREF voltage is 2.7mV, and the minimum variation range is 1mV.

It shows that the reference voltage has a good ability to resist power supply voltage variation under each process angle.
