Description

一種源極驅動器的輸出緩衝電路Output buffer circuit of source driver

本發明係有關於一種源極驅動器的輸出緩衝電路,特別是關於一種用於箝制運算放大器之源極驅動器充放電電壓所產生過衝的輸出緩衝電路。The present invention relates to an output buffer circuit for a source driver, and more particularly to an output buffer circuit for clamping an overshoot of a source driver charge and discharge voltage of an operational amplifier.

現今許多可攜式電子產品的設計係以輕、薄、短、小為目標。然而,這些電子產品在利用運算放大器的電路設計上可能產生反應遲鈍的問題。Many of today's portable electronic products are designed to be light, thin, short, and small. However, these electronic products may have a problem of slow response in circuit design using an operational amplifier.

請參閱第一A圖,其係為習知運算放大器的電路圖。運算放大器1的正電源輸入端係電性連接至PMOS (Mp ),負電源輸入端係電性連接至NMOS (Mn ),藉此根據PMOS (Mp )及NMOS (Mn )的閘極電壓Vgp 、Vgn 作為運算放大器1的工作電壓。Please refer to the first A diagram, which is a circuit diagram of a conventional operational amplifier. The positive power input terminal of the operational amplifier 1 is electrically connected to the PMOS (M p ), and the negative power input terminal is electrically connected to the NMOS (M n ), thereby the gate according to the PMOS (M p ) and the NMOS (M n ) The pole voltages V gp and V gn are used as the operating voltage of the operational amplifier 1.

運算放大器1由正輸入端(+)接收輸入電壓Vin ,當運算放大器1進行充電時,可藉由增加輸入電壓Vin 提升PMOS (Mp )的閘極電壓Vgp 。當運算放大器1進行放電時,可藉由降低輸入電壓Vin 以減小NMOS (Mn )的閘極電壓VgnThe operational amplifier 1 receives the input voltage V in from the positive input terminal (+). When the operational amplifier 1 is charged, the gate voltage V gp of the PMOS (M p ) can be boosted by increasing the input voltage V in . When the operational amplifier 1 is discharging, the gate voltage V gn of the NMOS (M n ) can be reduced by lowering the input voltage V in .

如第一B圖及第一C圖所示,其係為運算放大器1針對閘極電壓Vgp 充電及Vgn 放電的示意圖。由於目前一般可攜式電子裝置的頻寬較小、電流較低,因此,當運算放大器1以輸入電壓Vin 進行充電或者放電時,將使得閘極電壓Vgp 或Vgn 產生過衝(overshoot)的現象。換句話說,欲將閘極電壓Vgp 充電至輸入電壓Vin 的準位時,由於過衝的現象,將造成閘極電壓Vgp 充電至輸入電壓Vin 的時間變長,使得可攜式電子裝置的反應遲鈍。相似地,第一C圖所示針對閘極電壓Vgn 放電所造成過衝的現象亦具有相同的問題。As shown in FIG. 1B and FIG. 1C, it is a schematic diagram of the operational amplifier 1 charging and V gn discharging for the gate voltage V gp . Since the current portable electronic device has a small bandwidth and a low current, when the operational amplifier 1 is charged or discharged with the input voltage V in , the gate voltage V gp or V gn is overshooted (overshoot). )The phenomenon. In other words, when the gate voltage V gp is to be charged to the level of the input voltage V in , the time during which the gate voltage V gp is charged to the input voltage V in becomes longer due to the overshoot phenomenon, so that the portable type The response of the electronic device is slow. Similarly, the phenomenon of overshoot caused by the discharge of the gate voltage V gn as shown in the first C diagram has the same problem.

因此,亟需提出一種可箝制運算放大器之源極驅動器充放電電壓的電路。Therefore, there is a need for a circuit that can clamp the charge and discharge voltage of the source driver of an operational amplifier.

此外,第一輸入電晶體Min1 電性連接第一節點,第二輸入電晶體Min2 電性連接第二節點,使第一輸入電晶體Min1 及第二輸入電晶體Min2 可分別根據第一節點電壓VA 及第二節點電壓VE 的大小產生第一致動電流Ien1 及第二致動電流Ien2 。換句話說,第一致動電流Ien1 及第二致動電流Ien2 係間接根據第一輸入電流Iin1 及第二輸入電流Iin2 的大小變化。In addition, the first input transistor M in1 is electrically connected to the first node, and the second input transistor M in2 is electrically connected to the second node, so that the first input transistor M in1 and the second input transistor M in2 can be respectively according to the first The magnitude of a node voltage V A and the second node voltage V E generates a first actuation current I en1 and a second actuation current I en2 . In other words, the first actuation current I en1 and the second actuation current I en2 are indirectly varied according to the magnitudes of the first input current I in1 and the second input current I in2 .

於本發明之實施例中,致動開關Msw1 包括一第一致動電晶體 M7 、一第二致動電晶體 M8 及一緩衝電晶體M9 ,其中第一致動電晶體係為PMOS,第二致動電晶體係為NMOS。第一致動電晶體M7 其源極電性連接電源端VDDA ,閘極電性連接第一輸入電晶體Min1 及第二輸入電晶體Min2 的汲極,使第一致動電晶體M7 於輸入電壓Vin 上升時,根據第一致動電流Ien1 及第二致動電流Ien2 開啟。In the embodiment of the present invention, the actuation switch M sw1 includes a first actuation transistor M 7 , a second actuation transistor M 8 , and a buffer transistor M 9 , wherein the first actuation transistor system is The PMOS, the second actuated electro-emissive system is an NMOS. The first actuating transistor M 7 has a source electrically connected to the power terminal V DDA , and the gate is electrically connected to the drains of the first input transistor M in1 and the second input transistor M in2 to enable the first actuating transistor When the input voltage V in rises, M 7 is turned on according to the first actuation current I en1 and the second actuation current I en2 .

進一步而言,當輸入電壓Vin 上升時,使得n型差動輸入之軌對軌電路之n型差動對電晶體(M1 , M2 )的 M1 其上的第一電流I1 增加,其中電流的增加以粗箭號表示。然而,由於第一電流源M6 提供至n型差動對電晶體(M1 ,M2 )的第一定電流Ic1 係為固定值,因此使得流經n型差動對電晶體(M1 , M2 )的M2 其上的第一輸入電流Iin1 減少。Further, when the input voltage V in rises, the n-type differential of the n-type differential input is increased to the first current I 1 on the M 1 of the transistor (M 1 , M 2 ). , where the increase in current is indicated by a thick arrow. However, since the first constant current I c1 supplied from the first current source M 6 to the n-type differential pair transistor (M 1 , M 2 ) is a fixed value, it flows through the n-type differential pair transistor (M). 1, M 2) M 2 of a first input current I in1 on which reduces.

再者,如上所述,當第一輸入電流Iin1 減少時,第一電流鏡CM1 其上的第一節點電壓VA 隨之增加,使得第一輸入電晶體Min1 根據增加的第一節點電壓VA 所產生的第一致動電流Ien1 隨之減少。Furthermore, as described above, when the first input current I in1 decreases, the first node voltage V A on the first current mirror CM 1 increases accordingly, so that the first input transistor M in1 is increased according to the first node The first actuating current I en1 generated by the voltage V A is then reduced.

相似地,當輸入電壓Vin 上升時,使得p型差動輸入之軌對軌電路之p型差動對電晶體(M3 , M4 )的 M3 其上的第二電流I2 減少,然而,由於第二電流源M5 提供至p型差動對電晶體(M3 , M4 )的第二定電流Ic2 係為固定值,因此使得流經p型差動對電晶體(M3 , M4 )的M4 其上的第二輸入電流Iin2 增加。Similarly, when the input voltage V in rises, the p-type differential of the p-type differential input is reduced to the second current I 2 on the M 3 of the transistor (M 3 , M 4 ), However, since the second constant current I c2 supplied from the second current source M 5 to the p-type differential pair transistor (M 3 , M 4 ) is a fixed value, it flows through the p-type differential pair transistor (M 3, a second input current I in2 M 4) M 4 thereon is increased.

再者,當第二輸入電流Iin2 增加時,第二電流鏡CM2 其上的第二節點電壓VE 隨之增加,使得第二輸入電晶體Min2 根據增加的第二節點電壓VE 所產生的第二致動電流Ien2 隨之增加。Moreover, when the second input current I in2 increases, the second node voltage V E on the second current mirror CM 2 increases accordingly, so that the second input transistor M in2 is according to the increased second node voltage V E The resulting second actuation current I en2 increases accordingly.

致動開關Msw1 的第一致動電晶體 M7 具有一閘極電壓Vg7 ,而由於第一輸入電晶體Min1 的源極係電性連接於電源端VDDA ,第二輸入電晶體Min2 的源極係電性連接於接地端,因此,當流過第二輸入電晶體Min2 的第二致動電流Ien2 大於流過第一輸入電晶體Min1 的第一致動電流Ien1 時,亦即流向接地端的第二致動電流Ien2 大於第一致動電流Ien1 時,將使得閘極電壓Vg7 下降,第一致動電晶體 M7 因而導通。The first actuation transistor M 7 of the actuation switch M sw1 has a gate voltage V g7 , and since the source of the first input transistor M in1 is electrically connected to the power supply terminal V DDA , the second input transistor M The source of in2 is electrically connected to the ground, so that when the second actuation current I en2 flowing through the second input transistor M in2 is greater than the first actuation current I en1 flowing through the first input transistor M in1 When the second actuating current I en2 flowing to the ground terminal is greater than the first actuating current I en1 , the gate voltage V g7 is lowered and the first actuating transistor M 7 is thus turned on.

承上所述,致動開關Msw1 的第二致動電晶體 M8 的汲極電性連接正電源輸入端Vgp ,閘極電性連接第二致動電晶體 M7 的源極,源極電性連接電壓輸出端Vout 。當第一致動電晶體 M7 因閘極電壓Vg7 下降而導通時,將使得第二致動電晶體 M8 的閘極電壓Vg8 增加,因而使第二致動電晶體 M8 導通,進一步使得正電源輸入端Vgp 電性連接電壓輸出端VoutAs described above, the drain of the second actuating transistor M 8 of the actuating switch M sw1 is electrically connected to the positive power input terminal V gp , and the gate is electrically connected to the source of the second actuating transistor M 7 , the source The pole is electrically connected to the voltage output terminal V out . When the first actuator by the transistor M 7 gate voltage drop V g7 turned, so that the second brake actuator transistor M 8 of voltage increase V g8, thereby actuating the second transistor M 8 is turned on, Further, the positive power input terminal V gp is electrically connected to the voltage output terminal V out .

再者,由於輸入電壓Vin 增加,使得正電源輸入端的電壓Vgp 下降,但由於PMOS Mp 電性連接於電源端VDDA , 因而使PMOS Mp 導通,電源端VDDA 將經由PMOS Mp 對電壓輸出端Vout 充電,使輸出電壓Vout 上升。Furthermore, since the input voltage V in increases, the voltage V gp of the positive power input terminal decreases, but since the PMOS M p is electrically connected to the power supply terminal V DDA , the PMOS M p is turned on, and the power supply terminal V DDA will pass through the PMOS M p a voltage output terminal V out of the charge, the output voltage V out rises.

換句話說,箝制電路23可使運算放大器2於輸入電壓Vin 增加時,亦即運算放大器2於充電時,箝制正電源輸入端的電壓(Vgp )準位於輸出電壓Vout 的準位而不至於超出輸入電壓Vin 的準位造成過衝的現象,亦即,藉由電壓上升的輸出電壓Vout 箝制電壓下降的正電源輸入端Vgp 電壓,使正電源輸入端Vgp 電壓不至於產生大幅的下降,以便於在運算放大器2充電時,可快速地回復至充電電壓(輸入電壓)的準位。因此,藉由本發明的箝制電路23可使運算放大器2因充電產生過衝的時間減小。此外,緩衝電晶體M9 電性連接於接地端及第一致動電晶體 M7 的汲極之間,於此實施例中,緩衝電晶體M9 係為NMOS。In other words, the clamping circuit 23 can cause the operational amplifier 2 to increase the voltage (V gp ) of the positive power input terminal when the input voltage V in is increased, that is, when the operational amplifier 2 is being charged, at the level of the output voltage V out . As for the phenomenon that the level exceeding the input voltage V in causes overshoot, that is, the output voltage V out of the voltage rises clamps the voltage of the positive power input terminal V gp voltage, so that the voltage of the positive power input terminal V gp does not generate A large drop is made so that when the operational amplifier 2 is charged, it can quickly return to the level of the charging voltage (input voltage). Therefore, the time required for the operational amplifier 2 to overshoot due to charging can be reduced by the clamp circuit 23 of the present invention. In addition, the buffer transistor M 9 is electrically connected between the ground terminal and the drain of the first actuation transistor M 7 . In this embodiment, the buffer transistor M 9 is an NMOS.

再者,箝制電路23可根據設計的需求,選擇第二輸入電晶體Min2 的尺寸大於第一輸入電晶體Min1 的尺寸,因而使第二致動電流Ien2 增加的速度大於第一致動電流Ien1 ,使箝制電路23的第一致動電晶體 M7 及第二致動電晶體 M8 可更快速的導通,因而使過衝(overshoot)的時間更短。Moreover, the clamping circuit 23 can select the size of the second input transistor M in2 to be larger than the size of the first input transistor M in1 according to the design requirement, thereby increasing the second actuation current I en2 by a greater speed than the first actuation. The current I en1 allows the first actuation transistor M 7 and the second actuation transistor M 8 of the clamp circuit 23 to be turned on more quickly, thus making the overshoot time shorter.

此外,當運算放大器2的輸入電壓Vin 維持固定不變時,箝制電路23致動開關Msw1 的第一致動電晶體 M7 的閘極電壓Vg7 係近似於電源端準位VDDA 。進一步而言,閘極電壓Vg7 係等於電源端電壓VDDA 扣除導通電壓Vgs7 ,因此,第一致動電晶體M7 並無法導通。再者,第二致動電晶體M8 在第一致動電晶體 M7 無法導通的情況下,其閘極電壓Vg8 係趨近於接地端電壓。換句話說,閘極電壓Vg8 因緩衝電晶體M9 的汲極電流流向接地端(放電)而趨近於接地端電壓準位。據此,箝制電路23於輸入電壓Vin 維持固定不變,亦即處於穩態時係關閉其作動。換句話說,當上述的輸出緩衝電路2充電至固定電壓(輸入電壓)之後,輸出緩衝電路2將關閉其作動。Further, the operational amplifier when the input voltage V in 2 is maintained constant, the first actuator clamp transistor circuit 23 of the actuation switch SW1 M M gate voltage of approximately 7 V g7 system level power supply terminal V DDA. Further, the gate voltage V g7 is equal to the power supply terminal voltage V DDA minus the turn-on voltage V gs7 , and therefore, the first actuating transistor M 7 cannot be turned on. Moreover, the second actuation transistor M 8 has a threshold voltage V g8 that approaches the ground terminal voltage in the case where the first actuation transistor M 7 cannot be turned on. In other words, the gate voltage V g8 approaches the ground voltage level due to the drain current of the buffer transistor M 9 flowing to the ground (discharge). Accordingly, the clamp circuit 23 maintains its input voltage V in constant, that is, when it is in a steady state, its operation is turned off. In other words, after the output buffer circuit 2 described above is charged to a fixed voltage (input voltage), the output buffer circuit 2 will turn off its operation.

請參閱第三B圖,其係為本發明輸出緩衝電路3放電的電路圖。相同的電路連接關係及作動如上所述,於此不再贅述。然而,值得一提的是運算放大器於電路上的操作係具有正極性以及負極性,其表示電壓的操作具有兩個範圍,亦即實際上正極性放大器以及負極性放大器係分別代表電路中的兩個通道(channel),並以此兩通道切換操作。因此,實際上係將第三A圖所示的正極性放大器電路,以及第三B圖所示的負極性放大器電路一併設置於電路上操作,而兩者於電路上的主要差異在於致動開關的電性連接並不相同。Please refer to FIG. 3B, which is a circuit diagram of the discharge of the output buffer circuit 3 of the present invention. The same circuit connection relationship and operation are as described above, and will not be described herein. However, it is worth mentioning that the operation of the operational amplifier on the circuit has positive polarity and negative polarity, which means that the operation of the voltage has two ranges, that is, the positive polarity amplifier and the negative polarity amplifier respectively represent two of the circuits. Channels, and switch between the two channels. Therefore, in practice, the positive polarity amplifier circuit shown in FIG. 3A and the negative polarity amplifier circuit shown in FIG. B are collectively disposed on the circuit, and the main difference between the two is in the actuation. The electrical connections of the switches are not the same.

致動開關Msw2 包括一第一致動電晶體 M10 、一第二致動電晶體 M11 及一緩衝電晶體M12 ,其中第一致動電晶體M10 係為NMOS,第二致動電晶體M11 係為PMOS。第一致動電晶體M10 其源極電性連接接地端,閘極電性連接第一輸入電晶體Min1 及第二輸入電晶體Min2 的汲極,使第一致動電晶體M10 於輸入電壓Vin 下降時,根據第一致動電流Ien1 及第二致動電流Ien2 開啟。The actuation switch M sw2 includes a first actuation transistor M 10 , a second actuation transistor M 11 and a buffer transistor M 12 , wherein the first actuation transistor M 10 is an NMOS, the second actuation The transistor M 11 is a PMOS. The first active transistor M 10 has its source electrically connected to the ground, and the gate is electrically connected to the drains of the first input transistor M in1 and the second input transistor M in2 to make the first actuating transistor M 10 When the input voltage V in decreases, the first actuation current I en1 and the second actuation current I en2 are turned on.

進一步而言,當輸入電壓Vin 下降時,使得n型差動輸入之軌對軌電路之n型差動對電晶體(M1 , M2 )的M1 其上的第一電流Ic1 減少,然而,由於第一電流源M6 提供至n型差動對電晶體(M1 , M2 )的第一定電流Ic1 係為固定值,因此使得n型差動對電晶體(M1 ,M2 )的 M2 其上的第一輸入電流Iin1 增加。Further, when the input voltage V in decreases, the n-type differential input of the n-type differential input is reduced by the first current I c1 of the M 1 of the differential transistor (M 1 , M 2 ). However, since the first constant current I c1 supplied from the first current source M 6 to the n-type differential pair transistor (M 1 , M 2 ) is a fixed value, the n-type differential pair transistor (M 1 is made The first input current I in1 of M 2 of M 2 ) increases.

再者,如上所述,當第一輸入電流Iin1 增加時,第一電流鏡CM1 其上的第一節點電壓VA 隨之增加,使得第一輸入電晶體Min1 根據增加的第一節點電壓VA 所產生的第一致動電流Ien1 隨之增加。Furthermore, as described above, when the first input current I in1 increases, the first node voltage V A on the first current mirror CM 1 increases accordingly, so that the first input transistor M in1 is increased according to the first node The first actuating current I en1 generated by the voltage V A increases accordingly.

相似地,當輸入電壓Vin 下降時,使得流經p型差動輸入之軌對軌電路之p型差動對電晶體(M3 , M4 )的M3 其上的第二電流I2 增加,然而,由於第二電流源M5 提供至p型差動對電晶體(M3 , M4 )的第二定電流Ic2 係為固定值,因此使得流經p型差動對電晶體(M3 , M4 )的M4 其上的第二輸入電流Iin2 減少。Similarly, when the input voltage V in drops, so that the flow through the p-type rail differential input transistor pair of M (M 3, M. 4) 3 on which p-type differential circuit of the second rail current I 2 Increasing, however, since the second constant current I c2 supplied from the second current source M 5 to the p-type differential pair transistor (M 3 , M 4 ) is a fixed value, thus flowing through the p-type differential pair transistor The second input current I in2 of M 4 of (M 3 , M 4 ) decreases.

再者,當第二輸入電流Iin2 減少時,第二電流鏡CM2 其上的第二節點電壓VE 隨之降低,使得第二輸入電晶體Min2 根據降低的第二節點電壓VE 所產生的第二致動電流Ien2 隨之減少。Moreover, when the second input current I in2 decreases, the second node voltage V E on the second current mirror CM 2 decreases accordingly, so that the second input transistor M in2 is according to the reduced second node voltage V E The resulting second actuation current I en2 is then reduced.

致動開關Msw2 的第一致動電晶體 M10 具有一閘極電壓Vg10 ,而由於第一輸入電晶體Min1 的源極係電性連接於電源端VDDA ,第二輸入電晶體Min2 的源極係電性連接於接地端,因此,當流過第一輸入電晶體Min1 的第一致動電流Ien1 大於流過第二輸入電晶體Min2 的第二致動電流Ien2 時,亦即自電源端VDDA 流出的第一致動電流Ien1 大於第二致動電流Ien2 時,將使得閘極電壓Vg10 上升,第一致動電晶體 M10 因而導通。The first actuation transistor M 10 of the actuation switch M sw2 has a gate voltage V g10 , and since the source of the first input transistor M in1 is electrically connected to the power supply terminal V DDA , the second input transistor M The source of in2 is electrically connected to the ground, so that the first actuation current I en1 flowing through the first input transistor M in1 is greater than the second actuation current I en2 flowing through the second input transistor M in2 When the first actuation current I en1 flowing from the power supply terminal V DDA is greater than the second actuation current I en2 , the gate voltage V g10 is increased, and the first actuation transistor M 10 is thus turned on.

承上所述,致動開關Msw2 的第二致動電晶體 M11 汲極電性連接負電源輸入端 (接地端),閘極電性連接第一致動電晶體 M10 的源極,源極電性連接電壓輸出端Vout 。當第一致動電晶體 M10 因閘極電壓Vg10 上升而導通時,將使得第二致動電晶體 M11 的閘極電壓Vg11 增加,因而使第二致動電晶體 M11 導通,進一步使得負電源輸入端Vgn 電性連接電壓輸出端VoutAs described above, the second actuation transistor M 11 of the actuation switch M sw2 is electrically connected to the negative power input end (ground), and the gate is electrically connected to the source of the first actuation transistor M 10 . The source is electrically connected to the voltage output terminal V out . When the first actuator of the transistor M 10 by the gate voltage V g10 rises turned on, so that the gate of the transistor M of the second actuator 11 to increase the voltage V g11, thus the second actuator 11 is turned on the transistor M, Further, the negative power input terminal V gn is electrically connected to the voltage output terminal V out .

再者,由於輸入電壓Vin 降低,使得負電源輸入端的電壓Vgn 上升,因而使NMOS Mn 導通,但由於NMOSMn 電性連接於接地端,緩衝電路3將經由NMOS Mn 對電壓輸出端Vout 放電,使輸出電壓Vout 下降。Further, since the input voltage V in is reduced, so that the negative power supply input voltage V gn rises, thus the NMOS M n turned on, but due to NMOSM n is electrically connected to the ground terminal, the buffer circuit 3 via the NMOS M n of the voltage at the output V out discharge the output voltage V out decreases.

換句話說,箝制電路33可使運算放大器3於輸入電壓Vin 下降時,亦即運算放大器3放電時,箝制負電源輸入端的電壓Vgn 準位於輸出電壓Vout 的準位而不至於超出輸入電壓Vin 的準位造成過衝的現象,亦即,藉由電壓下降的輸出電壓Vout 箝制電壓上升的負電源輸入端Vgn 電壓,使負電源輸入端Vgn 電壓不至於產生大幅的上升,以便於在運算放大器3放電時,可快速地回復至放電電壓的準位。因此,藉由箝制電路23可使運算放大器3因放電產生過衝的時間減小。此外,緩衝電晶體M12 電性連接於電源端VDDA 及第一致動電晶體  M10 的汲極之間,於此實施例中,緩衝電晶體M12 係為一PMOS。In other words, the clamping circuit 33 can cause the operational amplifier 3 to clamp the voltage V gn of the negative power input terminal to the level of the output voltage V out without exceeding the input when the input voltage V in decreases, that is, when the operational amplifier 3 is discharged. The level of the voltage V in causes an overshoot phenomenon, that is, the output voltage V out of the voltage drop clamps the voltage of the negative power input terminal V gn of the voltage rise, so that the voltage of the negative power input terminal V gn does not cause a large rise. In order to quickly return to the level of the discharge voltage when the operational amplifier 3 is discharged. Therefore, the time during which the operational amplifier 3 is overshooted by the discharge can be reduced by the clamp circuit 23. In addition, the buffer transistor M 12 is electrically connected between the power supply terminal V DDA and the drain of the first actuation transistor M 10 . In this embodiment, the buffer transistor M 12 is a PMOS.

再者,箝制電路33可根據設計的需求,選擇第一輸入電晶體Min1 的尺寸大於第二輸入電晶體Min2 的尺寸,因而使第一致動電流Ien1 增加的速度大於第二致動電流Ien2 ,使箝制電路33的第一致動電晶體 M10 及第一致動電晶體 M11 可更快速的導通,因而使過衝(undershoot)的時間更短。Moreover, the clamping circuit 33 can select the size of the first input transistor M in1 to be larger than the size of the second input transistor M in2 according to the design requirement, thereby increasing the speed of the first actuation current I en1 by more than the second actuation. The current I en2 allows the first actuation transistor M 10 and the first actuation transistor M 11 of the clamp circuit 33 to be turned on more quickly, thereby making the undershoot time shorter.

此外,當運算放大器3的輸入電壓Vin 維持固定不變時,箝制電路33致動開關Msw2 的第一致動電晶體 M10 的閘極電壓Vg10 係接近接地端準位。進一步而言,閘極電壓Vg10 係等於接地端電壓加上導通電壓Vgs10 ,因此,第一致動電晶體M10 並無法導通。再者,第二致動電晶體M11 在第一致動電晶體 M10 無法導通的情況下,其閘極電壓Vg11 係趨近於電源端電壓VDDA 。進一步而言,閘極電壓Vg11 因緩衝電晶體M12 的汲極電流係由電流端流出(充電)而趨近於電源端電壓準位VDDA 。據此,箝制電路33於輸入電壓Vin 維持固定不變,亦即處於穩態時係關閉其作動。換句話說,當上述的輸出緩衝電路3放電至固定電壓(輸入電壓)之後,輸出緩衝電路3將關閉其作動。Further, the operational amplifier when the input voltage V in 3 is maintained constant, clamping circuit 33 actuating the first actuator switch transistor M M SW2 gate voltage of 10 V g10 ground proximity system level. Further, the gate voltage V g10 is equal to the ground terminal voltage plus the turn-on voltage V gs10 , and therefore, the first actuating transistor M 10 cannot be turned on. Moreover, in the case where the first actuation transistor M 10 cannot be turned on, the gate voltage V g11 of the second actuation transistor M 11 approaches the power supply terminal voltage V DDA . Further, the gate voltage V g11 approaches the power supply terminal voltage level V DDA because the drain current of the buffer transistor M 12 flows out (charges) from the current terminal. Accordingly, the clamp circuit 33 to the input voltage V in is maintained constant, i.e., closed in a steady state based upon its actuation. In other words, after the output buffer circuit 3 described above is discharged to a fixed voltage (input voltage), the output buffer circuit 3 will turn off its operation.

綜上所述,本發明源極驅動器的輸出緩衝電路,藉由箝制電路的作用,可於充、放電時箝制運算放大器正、負電源輸入端的工作電壓準位,減小其過衝的時間,使得利用本發明輸出緩衝電路的可攜式電子產品可進一步提升其充放電時的反應速度。In summary, the output buffer circuit of the source driver of the present invention can clamp the operating voltage level of the positive and negative power input terminals of the operational amplifier during charging and discharging by the action of the clamping circuit, thereby reducing the overshoot time. The portable electronic product using the output buffer circuit of the present invention can further improve the reaction speed at the time of charging and discharging.
