- the control signal LG corresponding to the boosted voltage Vbt is formed and the P-channel MOSFET M3 is turned on. Tell the gate and turn off the powerful MOSFET M3.
- the booster circuit of the present invention is characterized in that a P-channel type power MOSFET (hereinafter abbreviated as PMOS) M3, which is a switch element, is used instead of the diode D4 in FIG.
- PMOS P-channel type power MOSFET
- the PMOSM3 connects the drain terminal D to the power supply VDD and the source terminal S to the bootstrap capacitance CB. Since the source and the drain of the MOSFET are reversed depending on the direction of voltage application, the drain terminal D and the source terminal S shown in the figure are for convenience, and the power supply voltage VDD is determined by the bootstrap capacitance CB. A higher step-up voltage Vbt is formed!
- the substrate gate (back gate, channel region or N-type well region) of the PMOSM3 is connected to the source terminal S side, in other words, to the bootstrap capacitance CB side.
- FIG. 2 is a waveform diagram illustrating the operation of the drive circuit in the switching power supply of FIG. Basically, while the switch element M2 is on (ie, while the switch element Ml is off) by the control signals hg and lg corresponding to the PWM signal, the switch element M3 is turned on and the bootstrap capacitance is turned on. Charge CB to power supply voltage VDD.
- this charging voltage is represented as VDD-V3 (on)!
- V3 (on) is a voltage loss during the charging operation in the source / drain path of the MOSFET M3, and can be regarded as substantially zero.
- the operation of the PMOSM3 is generally called a reverse characteristic. That is, a low-level control signal LG such as the ground potential is supplied to the gate of the PMOS MOSM3 from the level shift circuit LSI, and the power supply voltage VDD side (drain terminal D) operates as the source region and turns on. Then, charging the bootstrap capacity CB is started.
- a low-level control signal LG such as the ground potential is supplied to the gate of the PMOS MOSM3 from the level shift circuit LSI, and the power supply voltage VDD side (drain terminal D) operates as the source region and turns on.
- Vbt is VDD— Vf (Vf is the forward direction of the parasitic diode
- Vf is the forward direction of the parasitic diode
- the potential of the middle point LX is set by turning on the switch element Ml.
- the boosted voltage Vbt of the bootstrap capacitor CB rises as a voltage higher by the charging voltage VDD. That is, the holding voltage VDD (VDD-V3 (on)) of the bootstrap capacitor CB is applied between the gate and the source (HG-LX) of the switch element Ml via the level shift circuit LS2.
- the potential of the midpoint LX obtained from the source side rises to a high voltage corresponding to the input voltage Vin.
- VDD is about 5 V
- the threshold voltage of the switch element Ml is about IV
- VDD> Vth Vth.
- the boost voltage Vbt side operates as the source terminal S
- the power supply voltage VDD side operates as the drain terminal D. Therefore, if the control signal LG supplied to the gate G is at a high level such as the power supply voltage VDD, the threshold voltage is exceeded, and if the potential of the source terminal S rises above the value voltage Vth, it turns on again and the boost voltage The charge of the bootstrap capacitance CB that forms Vbt is drained to the power supply voltage VDD side.
- the level shift circuit LSI sets the high level of the control signal LG to a high voltage corresponding to the boosted voltage Vbt, maintains the gate G and the source terminal S at the same potential (Vth or less), and maintains the off state. Then, a current is applied to the parasitic diode so that a voltage is applied in the opposite direction to discharge the charge of the bootstrap capacitor CB.
- the charge of the bootstrap capacitance CB consumed by one charging operation for turning on the switch element Ml can be roughly calculated by Cg XVgs.
- Cg is the gate input capacitance of the switch element Ml
- Vgs is the drive voltage between the gate and the source.
- the on-resistance of the MOSFET M3 is several tens of ⁇ , and the voltage drop V3 (on) during charging can be regarded as small and zero. Therefore, the forward voltage Vf of the conventional diode D4 The voltage drop is very small as compared with the voltage drop.
- the level shift circuit LSI uses the boosted voltage Vbt as the operating voltage to change the level of the control signal LG applied to the gate terminal G of the P-channel MOSFET M3 to the boosted voltage of the source terminal S. Level shift to the same voltage as Vbt. Then, there is a parasitic diode (called body diode) between the drain terminal D of MOSFET M3 and the substrate gate. With this parasitic diode, the MOSFET M3 is turned off and the backflow from the boosted potential Vbt toward the power supply voltage VDD is prevented. Therefore, in Patent Document 1, it is not necessary to newly provide a diode for preventing backflow as in the case of using a JFET.
- the switching time of the switch elements Ml, M2, and M3 to the on and off states includes element variation, a dead time is provided for switching between the switch elements Ml and M2 to prevent a through current. Similarly, switch element M3 is turned on before switch element Ml is completely turned off.
- This dead time is not particularly limited, but is set by the control circuit CONT that forms the signals lg and hg corresponding to the PWM signal.
- the present invention can provide a booster circuit that can obtain a sufficient drive voltage for the switch element Ml even when the power supply voltage VDD is reduced.
- FIG. 3 shows a schematic element cross-sectional view of one embodiment of the P-channel MOSFET M3 in FIG. Fig. 3 (A) shows an example of a general P-channel MOSFET, and Fig. 3 (B) shows an example of a high voltage MOSFET. It can be seen from the signal waveforms of the respective parts in FIG. 2 that the boosted voltage Vbt reaches the power supply voltage VDD + the input voltage Vin. Therefore, it is safe to use a high-voltage LDMOS (Laterally Diffiised MOS) as shown in Fig. 3 (B) as the P-channel MOSFE TM3.

- An N-channel power MOSFET can be used for the switch element on the high potential side, and a low-cost, small-sized switching power supply can be configured.
- the booster circuit of the present invention turns on the P-channel MOSFET M3 to charge the bootstrap capacitance CB, and prevents backflow from the boosted potential side by level shifting the gate voltage of the MOSFET in accordance with the boosted voltage. Turn off and use the body diode. Therefore, a diode for preventing backflow as in the switching power supply of Patent Document 1 can be omitted. Further, since the ON resistance of a MOS is generally as small as several tens of ⁇ , the voltage drop during charging can be suppressed as compared with the forward voltage Vf of the diode. If a sufficient charging time can be set, the bootstrap capacity CB can be increased to VDD.
