电流镜电路是模拟电路的重要电路模块,用于负载将原始的电流精确复制成一路或者多路电流,为后级的单个或者多个电路模块提供与原始电流成比例的精确电流。The current mirror circuit is an important circuit module of the analog circuit. It is used to accurately copy the original current into one or more current paths, and provide accurate current proportional to the original current for the subsequent single or multiple circuit modules.
目前,常规场效应晶体管电流镜电路工作在饱和区,双极晶体管电流镜工作在线性区,在一些应用中,从电流镜电路的输出端向上看需要看到一个低电阻,而工作在饱和区或放大区的电流镜电路看进去为高阻,不符合应用要求,需要进行转换。At present, conventional field effect transistor current mirror circuits operate in the saturation region, and bipolar transistor current mirror circuits operate in the linear region. In some applications, a low resistance needs to be seen when looking up from the output end of the current mirror circuit, while a current mirror circuit operating in the saturation region or amplification region appears as high resistance when looking inward, which does not meet the application requirements and needs to be converted.
因此,场效应晶体管电流镜电路需要工作在线性区,双极晶体管电流镜需要工作在饱和区,但是此时电流镜受电压影响较大,无法准确地实现电流镜的功能,因此,如何使场效应晶体管电流镜电路在线性区、双极晶体管电流镜需要工作在饱和区,也能精确的进行电流复制,是当前急需解决的问题。Therefore, the field effect transistor current mirror circuit needs to work in the linear region, and the bipolar transistor current mirror needs to work in the saturation region. However, at this time, the current mirror is greatly affected by the voltage and cannot accurately realize the function of the current mirror. Therefore, how to make the field effect transistor current mirror circuit work in the linear region and the bipolar transistor current mirror work in the saturation region and accurately replicate the current is a problem that needs to be solved urgently.

电流镜电路是模拟集成电路中最基本的单元,利用电流镜电路可以构成电流模式的
基本模块电路,如电流模式传输器、微分器、积分器等,也可以构成电流模式集成电路,如连续时间滤波器、A/D转换器等。The current mirror circuit is the most basic unit in analog integrated circuits. It can be used to form a current mode Basic module circuits, such as current-mode transmitters, differentiators, integrators, etc., can also constitute current-mode integrated circuits, such as continuous-time filters, A/D converters, etc.
在相关技术中,常规场效应晶体管电流镜工作在饱和区,双极晶体管电流镜工作在线性区,对一些应用来说,从电流镜输出端向上看需要看到一个低电阻,而工作在场效应晶体管电流镜饱和区或工作在双极晶体管电流镜线性区的电流镜看进去为高阻,因此本公开实施例令场效应晶体管电流镜工作在线性区,或者双极晶体管电流镜工作在饱和区。但是,此时电流镜电流受电压影响较大,并且有可能不同的晶体管处于不同工作状态,比如其中一个为线性区,另一个为饱和区,为了保证电流镜可以按照预设比例进行镜像,需要令不同的晶体管的漏极电压相同,才能保证电流镜电路的功能。In the related art, conventional field effect transistor current mirrors operate in the saturation region, and bipolar transistor current mirrors operate in the linear region. For some applications, a low resistance needs to be seen when looking upward from the output end of the current mirror, while a current mirror operating in the saturation region of the field effect transistor current mirror or in the linear region of the bipolar transistor current mirror is seen as a high resistance. Therefore, the disclosed embodiment enables the field effect transistor current mirror to operate in the linear region, or the bipolar transistor current mirror to operate in the saturation region. However, at this time, the current mirror current is greatly affected by the voltage, and it is possible that different transistors are in different working states, for example, one of them is in the linear region and the other is in the saturation region. In order to ensure that the current mirror can be mirrored according to a preset ratio, the drain voltages of different transistors need to be the same to ensure the function of the current mirror circuit.

在本公开实施例中,为了从所述第二支路的第三端看向所述电流镜电路为低阻,场效应晶体管电流镜电路需要工作在线性区,双极晶体管电流镜需要工作在饱和区。因此,当第一晶体管、第二晶体管和第三晶体管为场效应晶体管时,电流镜电路需要工作在线性区;当第一晶体管、第二晶体管和第三晶体管为双极晶体管时,电流镜电路需要工作在饱和区。下述实施例不再对晶体管的具体类型和工作状态进行描述。In the embodiment of the present disclosure, in order to make the current mirror circuit look low-resistance from the third end of the second branch, the field effect transistor current mirror circuit needs to operate in the linear region, and the bipolar transistor current mirror circuit needs to operate in the saturation region. Therefore, when the first transistor, the second transistor, and the third transistor are field effect transistors, the current mirror circuit needs to operate in the linear region; when the first transistor, the second transistor, and the third transistor are bipolar transistors, the current mirror circuit needs to operate in the saturation region. The following embodiments will no longer describe the specific types and operating states of the transistors.
在本公开实施例中,以场效应晶体管为例,为获得低阻抗电流镜,可以通过令电流镜电路的两个输出支路中的晶体管处于线性区,从而降低电流镜的阻抗,即令第二支路102、第三支路103中的晶体管处于线性区,对于第一支路101中的晶体管不作限制,也就是说,第一支路101中的晶体管可为任意工作状态的区域,而令第二支路102、第三支路103中的晶体管处于线性区,只需令其栅极电压与源级电压之间的压差减小。In the embodiments of the present disclosure, taking field effect transistors as an example, in order to obtain a low-impedance current mirror, the impedance of the current mirror can be reduced by placing the transistors in the two output branches of the current mirror circuit in a linear region, that is, placing the transistors in the second branch 102 and the third branch 103 in a linear region, and no restrictions are imposed on the transistors in the first branch 101, that is, the transistors in the first branch 101 can be in any operating state region, and placing the transistors in the second branch 102 and the third branch 103 in a linear region only requires reducing the voltage difference between their gate voltage and source voltage.
在本公开实施例中,如图2所示,电流源ILIMIT的一端接地,另一端与所述第一晶体管MP1的第二端电连接,用于为所述第一晶体管MP1的第二端提供输入电流,即第
一晶体管MP1的支路电流,另一端还与所述第一晶体管MP1的第一端电连接,第一晶体管MP1的第一端还分别与第二晶体管MP3的第一端和第三晶体管MP3的第一端电连接,因此,电流源ILIMIT还用于分别为所述第一晶体管MP1的第一端、所述第二晶体管MP2的第一端和所述第三晶体管MP3的第一端提供偏置电流。所述电流源ILIMIT的内阻相对负载阻抗很大,负载阻抗波动不会改变电流大小。In the embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 2 , one end of the current source I LIMIT is grounded, and the other end is electrically connected to the second end of the first transistor MP1, so as to provide an input current to the second end of the first transistor MP1. The branch current of the first transistor MP1, the other end is also electrically connected to the first end of the first transistor MP1, the first end of the first transistor MP1 is also electrically connected to the first end of the second transistor MP3 and the first end of the third transistor MP3, therefore, the current source I LIMIT is also used to provide bias current for the first end of the first transistor MP1, the first end of the second transistor MP2 and the first end of the third transistor MP3, respectively. The internal resistance of the current source I LIMIT is large relative to the load impedance, and the fluctuation of the load impedance will not change the current size.
这里,电流源ILIMIT与第一晶体管MP1的第一端和第二端电连接,在第一晶体管MP1的栅极和漏极之间产生偏置电压Vgate。Here, the current source I LIMIT is electrically connected to the first terminal and the second terminal of the first transistor MP1 , and generates a bias voltage Vgate between the gate and the drain of the first transistor MP1 .
在一些实施例中,第一晶体管MP1、第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3的第一端均接入固定电压Vgate,使得第一晶体管MP1、第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3的栅极电压相同。In some embodiments, first terminals of the first transistor MP1 , the second transistor MP2 , and the third transistor MP3 are all connected to a fixed voltage Vgate, so that the gate voltages of the first transistor MP1 , the second transistor MP2 , and the third transistor MP3 are the same.
在一些实施例中,控制电路105至少包括运放电路OPAMP,运放电路OPAMP包括第一输入端VN、第二输入端VP和输出端Vout。In some embodiments, the control circuit 105 at least includes an operational amplifier circuit OPAMP, and the operational amplifier circuit OPAMP includes a first input terminal VN, a second input terminal VP, and an output terminal Vout.
在一些实施例中,如图3所示,所述第二晶体管MP2的第二端和所述第三晶体管MP3的第二端分别与所述运放电路OPAMP电连接,所述运放电路控制所述第二晶体管MP2的第二端电压与所述第三晶体管MP3的第二端电压相同,即第二晶体管MP2与所述第三晶体管MP3的漏极电压相同,基于第二晶体管MP2与所述第三晶体管MP3的栅极电压Vgate,使所述第二晶体管MP2和所述第三晶体管MP3均工作于线性区或饱和区。In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3 , the second end of the second transistor MP2 and the second end of the third transistor MP3 are electrically connected to the operational amplifier circuit OPAMP, respectively. The operational amplifier circuit controls the second end voltage of the second transistor MP2 to be the same as the second end voltage of the third transistor MP3, that is, the drain voltage of the second transistor MP2 is the same as the drain voltage of the third transistor MP3. Based on the gate voltage Vgate of the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3, the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 both operate in a linear region or a saturation region.
且由于镜像电路中第一晶体管MP1、第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3的栅极电压相同,第一晶体管MP1、第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3的源极均与VDD连接,使得第一晶体管MP1、第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3的源极电压相同,通过运放电路使得第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3的漏极电压相同,使得第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3能够保持相同的状态。从而使得栅极相连的第一晶体管MP1、第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3,栅源之间的电压相同,第二晶体管MP2的漏极和第三晶体管MP3的漏极对第一晶体管MP1的漏极进行电流复制,以达到电流镜像复制。Since the gate voltages of the first transistor MP1, the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 in the mirror circuit are the same, the sources of the first transistor MP1, the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 are all connected to VDD, so that the source voltages of the first transistor MP1, the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 are the same, and the drain voltages of the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 are the same through the operational amplifier circuit, so that the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 can maintain the same state. Therefore, the gate-source voltages of the first transistor MP1, the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 connected to each other are the same, and the drain of the second transistor MP2 and the drain of the third transistor MP3 replicate the current of the drain of the first transistor MP1, so as to achieve current mirror replication.
在一些实施例中,第一晶体管MP1、第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3可以是PMOS型晶体管,也可以是NMOS型晶体管。In some embodiments, the first transistor MP1 , the second transistor MP2 , and the third transistor MP3 may be PMOS transistors or NMOS transistors.
在本公开实施例提供的电流镜电路中,令晶体管工作在线性区或者饱和区,实现小阻抗的电流镜电路。本公开电流镜电路中的晶体管可以在线性区或者饱和区工作,也可以在两个工作区间内进行摆动,例如当晶体管为MOS管时,MOS管的工作区可以从线性区跳转到饱和区,此时需要控制电路保证晶体管稳定在线性区或者饱和区工作。In the current mirror circuit provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, the transistor is made to work in the linear region or the saturation region to realize a current mirror circuit with low impedance. The transistor in the current mirror circuit of the present disclosure can work in the linear region or the saturation region, or can swing between the two working regions. For example, when the transistor is a MOS tube, the working region of the MOS tube can jump from the linear region to the saturation region. At this time, a control circuit is required to ensure that the transistor works stably in the linear region or the saturation region.
在一些实施例中,所述第一晶体管MP1的第二端用于接收所述电流源ILIMIT的输入电流I1。所述第二晶体管MP2的第二端根据所述输入电流I1输出第一镜像电流I2,所述第三晶体管MP3的第二端根据所述输入电流I1输出第二镜像电流I3。In some embodiments, the second end of the first transistor MP1 is used to receive the input current I 1 of the current source I LIMIT . The second end of the second transistor MP2 outputs a first mirror current I 2 according to the input current I 1 , and the second end of the third transistor MP3 outputs a second mirror current I 3 according to the input current I 1 .
在一些实施例中,电流镜电路用于将输入电流转换成一个或多个相等或成倍数的镜像电流。所述第一镜像电流I2与所述输入电流I1成第一镜像比例,所述第二镜像电流I3与所述输入电流I1成第二镜像比例。镜像比例可以是1或1的倍数。所述镜像比例与所述第一晶体管MP1、第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3的尺寸比例相关,即与晶体管的沟道长度和沟道宽度之间的尺寸比例有关。当所有工艺参数都相等时,输入电流和镜像电流仅是两个晶体管沟道宽长比的函数。In some embodiments, the current mirror circuit is used to convert the input current into one or more equal or multiple mirror currents. The first mirror current I2 is in a first mirror ratio with the input current I1 , and the second mirror current I3 is in a second mirror ratio with the input current I1 . The mirror ratio can be 1 or a multiple of 1. The mirror ratio is related to the size ratio of the first transistor MP1, the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3, that is, it is related to the size ratio between the channel length and the channel width of the transistor. When all process parameters are equal, the input current and the mirror current are only functions of the width-to-length ratio of the two transistor channels.
在一些实施例中,在电流源ILIMIT的输入电流I1流经所述第一晶体管MP1时,在所述第一晶体管MP1的第一端和第二端之间产生偏置电压Vgate,即在第一晶体管MP1的栅极和漏极之间产生偏置电压Vgate,通过该偏置电压对第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体
管MP3进行偏置,使得第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3处于线性区或饱和区。In some embodiments, when the input current I1 of the current source I LIMIT flows through the first transistor MP1, a bias voltage Vgate is generated between the first end and the second end of the first transistor MP1, that is, a bias voltage Vgate is generated between the gate and the drain of the first transistor MP1, and the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 are biased by the bias voltage. The transistor MP3 is biased so that the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 are in a linear region or a saturation region.
在一些实施例中,当MOS晶体管的栅极电压和阈值电压的差值被决定后,MOS晶体管漏极电流仅有由其宽长比决定。因此,一些实施例可以通过调节第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3的沟道宽长比,来控制第二晶体管MP2输出的第一镜像电流I2和第三晶体管MP3输出的第二镜像电流I3。In some embodiments, when the difference between the gate voltage and the threshold voltage of the MOS transistor is determined, the drain current of the MOS transistor is only determined by its width-to-length ratio. Therefore, some embodiments can control the first mirror current I2 output by the second transistor MP2 and the second mirror current I3 output by the third transistor MP3 by adjusting the channel width-to-length ratio of the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3.
在一些实施例中,输入电流与镜像电流的比值通过公式(1)和(2)进行计算:
In some embodiments, the ratio of the input current to the mirror current is calculated by equations (1) and (2):
In some embodiments, the ratio of the input current to the mirror current is calculated by equations (1) and (2):
其中,H为第一镜像比例;S为第二镜像比例;IMP1是第一晶体管的支路电流;IMP2是第二晶体管的支路电流;IMP3是第三晶体管的支路电流;WMP1、WMP2和WMP3分别是第一晶体管、第二晶体管和第三晶体管的沟道宽度;LMP1、LMP2和LMP3分别是第一晶体管、第二晶体管和第三晶体管的沟道长度。Among them, H is the first mirror ratio; S is the second mirror ratio; I MP1 is the branch current of the first transistor; I MP2 is the branch current of the second transistor; I MP3 is the branch current of the third transistor; W MP1 , W MP2 and W MP3 are the channel widths of the first transistor, the second transistor and the third transistor respectively; L MP1 , L MP2 and L MP3 are the channel lengths of the first transistor, the second transistor and the third transistor respectively.
在一些实施例中,第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3可以是完全相同的晶体管,使得第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3的支路电流相同,即I2和I3相同。In some embodiments, the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 may be identical transistors, so that the branch currents of the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 are the same, that is, I 2 and I 3 are the same.
在一些实施例中,I1、I2和I3可以相等,即第一镜像比例和第二镜像比例为1,实现了电流复制。In some embodiments, I 1 , I 2 , and I 3 may be equal, that is, the first mirror ratio and the second mirror ratio are 1, thereby achieving current replication.

The current mirror circuit provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure may be located in the protection circuit of the wireless transceiver system. The current mirror circuit may be connected to the power amplifier PA. The output end of the power amplifier PA is connected to the filter, which is not shown in Figure 2. The current mirror circuit is connected to the power amplifier through the second end HBT of the second transistor MP2 to provide a bias current for the power amplifier, i.e., the first mirror current I1 of the second transistor MP2.
如图3所示,运放电路OPAMP包括第一输入端VN、第二输入端VP和输出端Vout;所述第二晶体管MP2的第二端与所述第一输入端VN电连接,所述第三晶体管MP3的第二端与所述第二输入端VP电连接,形成负反馈电路。所述负反馈电路使所述第二晶体管MP2的第二端的电压与所述第三晶体管MP3的第二端的电压相同,即A点与HBT输出端的电压相同。这样,可以保证第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3的漏极电压相同,即工作状态相同,进而令第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3所处的两个支路电流都满足镜像比例关系,从而能够实现电流的镜像复制,使得晶体管工作在线性区也能实现电流的成比例复制。As shown in FIG3 , the operational amplifier circuit OPAMP includes a first input terminal VN, a second input terminal VP and an output terminal Vout; the second terminal of the second transistor MP2 is electrically connected to the first input terminal VN, and the second terminal of the third transistor MP3 is electrically connected to the second input terminal VP, forming a negative feedback circuit. The negative feedback circuit makes the voltage of the second terminal of the second transistor MP2 the same as the voltage of the second terminal of the third transistor MP3, that is, the voltage of point A is the same as the output terminal of the HBT. In this way, it can be ensured that the drain voltages of the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 are the same, that is, the working states are the same, and then the two branch currents where the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 are located both meet the mirror proportional relationship, so that the mirror copy of the current can be realized, so that the transistor can also realize the proportional copy of the current when working in the linear region.
本公开实施例提供了MP1-MP2和MP1-MP3两个电流镜,通过运放电路(即运算放大器)的两个输入端保证MP2和MP3的漏极端电压相同。在一些实施例中还可以有三个电流镜或更多电流镜,此时可以采用多输入运算放大器的多个输入端来保证多个需要电流复制的晶体管的漏极电压相同,或者通过多个具有两个输入端的运算放大器来保证多个需要电流复制的晶体管的漏极电压相同,进而实现在线性区的晶体管也能准确进行电流复制的目的。The disclosed embodiment provides two current mirrors, MP1-MP2 and MP1-MP3, and ensures that the drain terminal voltages of MP2 and MP3 are the same through the two input terminals of the operational amplifier circuit (i.e., the operational amplifier). In some embodiments, there may be three or more current mirrors, in which case the multiple input terminals of the multi-input operational amplifier may be used to ensure that the drain voltages of multiple transistors that require current replication are the same, or multiple operational amplifiers with two input terminals may be used to ensure that the drain voltages of multiple transistors that require current replication are the same, thereby achieving the purpose of accurately replicating current in transistors in the linear region.
在一些实施例中,输出端Vout与其他模拟电路连接,本公开实施例未示出。In some embodiments, the output terminal Vout is connected to other analog circuits, which are not shown in the embodiments of the present disclosure.
在一些实施例中,运放电路OPAMP分别与第二晶体管MP2的第二端和所述第三晶体管MP3的第二端连接,以使电流镜电路可以按照预设比例进行镜像,使得电流镜电路中MP1的输入电流按照预设倍数放大,进而使得第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3输出放大后的镜像电流。In some embodiments, the operational amplifier circuit OPAMP is connected to the second end of the second transistor MP2 and the second end of the third transistor MP3, respectively, so that the current mirror circuit can be mirrored according to a preset ratio, so that the input current of MP1 in the current mirror circuit is amplified according to a preset multiple, and then the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 output the amplified mirror current.
本公开实施例中利用运放电路控制第二晶体管第二端的电压与第三晶体管第二端
的电压相同,使第二晶体管和第三晶体管工作在线性区或饱和区仍然能够很好的镜像电流。In the embodiment of the present disclosure, an operational amplifier circuit is used to control the voltage of the second end of the second transistor and the voltage of the second end of the third transistor. The voltage of the second transistor and the third transistor is the same, so that they can still mirror the current well when working in the linear region or the saturation region.
在一些实施例中,所述电流镜电路还包括控制晶体管MN1;所述控制晶体管MN1的第一端与控制电源VCOMP电连接,所述控制晶体管MN1的第二端接地,所述控制晶体管MN1的第三端与所述第一晶体管MP1的第二端连接。In some embodiments, the current mirror circuit further includes a control transistor MN1; a first terminal of the control transistor MN1 is electrically connected to a control power supply V COMP , a second terminal of the control transistor MN1 is grounded, and a third terminal of the control transistor MN1 is connected to a second terminal of the first transistor MP1.
在一些实施例中,所述控制晶体管MN1的第一端与控制电源VCOMP电连接,当控制电源VCOMP给控制晶体管MN1的第一端高电平时,Vgate电压较低,第一晶体管MP1、第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3均工作在线性区。当控制晶体管MN1的第一端电压转换为低电平,第一晶体管MP1的电流被限定在Ilimit(即电流源提供的电流内),则第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3镜像后的电流输出最大值被限定在M*Ilimit。In some embodiments, the first terminal of the control transistor MN1 is electrically connected to the control power supply V COMP . When the control power supply V COMP provides a high level to the first terminal of the control transistor MN1, the Vgate voltage is low, and the first transistor MP1, the second transistor MP2, and the third transistor MP3 all operate in a linear region. When the voltage at the first terminal of the control transistor MN1 is converted to a low level, the current of the first transistor MP1 is limited to I limit (i.e., within the current provided by the current source), and the maximum current output of the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 after mirroring is limited to M*I limit .
在一些实施例中,控制电源VCOMP用于改变控制晶体管MN1的漏极电流,进而用于对所述第一晶体管MP1的第二端的输入电流进行调节,进而可以调节所述第二晶体管MP2输出的第一镜像电流和所述第三晶体管MP3输出的第二镜像电流。In some embodiments, the control power supply V COMP is used to change the drain current of the control transistor MN1, and further to adjust the input current of the second end of the first transistor MP1, and further to adjust the first mirror current output by the second transistor MP2 and the second mirror current output by the third transistor MP3.
在一些实施例中,本公开实施例提供的电流镜电路位于与功率放大器连接的保护电路中,保护电路和功率放大器通过HBT端口连接。In some embodiments, the current mirror circuit provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure is located in a protection circuit connected to a power amplifier, and the protection circuit and the power amplifier are connected through an HBT port.
传统的电流镜MOS管一般工作在饱和区,以减小漏极电压对电流复制的影响。而本公开实施例提供的电流镜电路,使得电流镜电路工作在了线性区,也能实现电流镜电路的精确放大。Conventional current mirror MOS tubes generally operate in a saturation region to reduce the influence of drain voltage on current replication. However, the current mirror circuit provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure enables the current mirror circuit to operate in a linear region and can also achieve accurate amplification of the current mirror circuit.
本公开实施例提供的电流镜电路中,第一晶体管MP1分别与第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3形成两个电流镜,从而控制第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3的输出电流,具体地通过控制晶体管MN1的控制端对电流进行调节。In the current mirror circuit provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first transistor MP1 forms two current mirrors with the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 respectively, thereby controlling the output current of the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3, specifically, adjusting the current by controlling the control terminal of the transistor MN1.
本公开实施例的电流镜电路可以工作在线性区,而相关技术中的常规电流镜工作在饱和区。对于功率放大器PA来说,从输出端HBT向上看需要看到一个低电阻,而工作在饱和区的电流镜看进去为高阻,因此本公开实施例令电流镜电路工作在线性区。但是在线性区工作的电流镜电流受电压影响较大,并且第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3有可能处于不同工作状态,其中一个为线性区,另一个为饱和区,为了保证电流镜可以按照预设比例进行镜像,需要令第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3的漏极端电压相同,才能保证其电流镜的功能。The current mirror circuit of the embodiment of the present disclosure can operate in the linear region, while the conventional current mirror in the related art operates in the saturation region. For the power amplifier PA, a low resistance needs to be seen when looking upward from the output terminal HBT, while the current mirror operating in the saturation region is seen as a high resistance, so the embodiment of the present disclosure allows the current mirror circuit to operate in the linear region. However, the current mirror current operating in the linear region is greatly affected by the voltage, and the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 may be in different working states, one of which is in the linear region and the other is in the saturation region. In order to ensure that the current mirror can be mirrored according to a preset ratio, the drain terminal voltages of the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 need to be the same to ensure the function of the current mirror.
因此,本公开实施例通过运放电路OPAMP保证运放两个输入端的电压相同,基通过电路OPAMP的负反馈保证第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3的漏极电压相同,即A点与HBT输出端电压相同。这样,可以保证第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3的漏极电压相同,从而使得工作状态相同,进而令第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3所处的两个支路电流都满足比例关系。Therefore, the embodiment of the present disclosure ensures that the voltages of the two input terminals of the operational amplifier are the same through the operational amplifier circuit OPAMP, and the drain voltages of the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 are the same through the negative feedback of the circuit OPAMP, that is, the voltage of the point A is the same as the output terminal of the HBT. In this way, the drain voltages of the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 can be ensured to be the same, so that the working states are the same, and then the two branch currents of the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 are both proportional.
本公开实施例通过一个负反馈运放电路,使得第二晶体管MP2和第三晶体管MP3的漏极电压相同,从而能够实现电流的镜像检测,使得晶体管工作在线性区也能形成电流的成比例复制。The embodiment of the present disclosure uses a negative feedback operational amplifier circuit to make the drain voltages of the second transistor MP2 and the third transistor MP3 the same, thereby enabling current mirror detection and enabling the transistors to form a proportional copy of the current even when operating in a linear region.

在一些实施例中,晶体管的第一端为源极,第二端为漏极,第三端为栅极。电流模块可以是电流源,电流源的内阻相对负载阻抗很大,因此负载阻抗波动不会改变电流源提供的电流大小。In some embodiments, the first terminal of the transistor is a source, the second terminal is a drain, and the third terminal is a gate. The current module can be a current source, and the internal resistance of the current source is large relative to the load impedance, so the load impedance fluctuation will not change the current provided by the current source.

在一些实施例中,如图5所示,基准电压电路502至少包括第五晶体管MP5、第六晶体管MP6、第三电流源IPTAT、第四电流源IR和分压电阻R3。第三电流源IPTAT的正极与电源VDD电连接,第三电流源IPTAT的负极分别与第四电流源IR的正极、第六晶体管MP6的第二端和第三端电连接,第四电流源IR的负极接地。第六晶体管MP6的第一端与电源VDD电连接,第六晶体管MP6的第三端与第五晶体管MP5的第三端电连接,第五晶体管MP5的第一端与电源VDD电连接,第五晶体管MP5的第二端分别与第二输入端和分压电阻R3的一端电连接,分压电阻R3的另一端接地。In some embodiments, as shown in FIG5 , the reference voltage circuit 502 at least includes a fifth transistor MP5, a sixth transistor MP6, a third current source I PTAT , a fourth current source IR and a voltage-dividing resistor R3.

The first end of the sixth transistor MP6 is electrically connected to the power supply VDD, the third end of the sixth transistor MP6 is electrically connected to the third end of the fifth transistor MP5, the first end of the fifth transistor MP5 is electrically connected to the power supply VDD, the second end of the fifth transistor MP5 is electrically connected to the second input end and one end of the voltage-dividing resistor R3, respectively, and the other end of the voltage-dividing resistor R3 is grounded.
在一些实施例中,通过第三电流源IPTAT可以获取与环境温度成正比的电流,再通过不受温度影响的恒流源,即第四电流源IR,得到与环境温度成线性反比的电流给到第六晶体管MP6的漏极。这里,由于第三电流源IPTAT的负极与第四电流源IR的正极连接,而第四电流源IR为不受温度影响的恒流源,因此,第六晶体管MP6的漏极电流为第三电流源IPTAT与第四电流源IR的电流之差,因此,在第三电流源IPTAT获取与环境温度成正比的电流的情况下,第六晶体管MP6的漏极电流与环境温度成线性反比。In some embodiments, a current proportional to the ambient temperature can be obtained through the third current source I PTAT , and then a current linearly inversely proportional to the ambient temperature is obtained through a constant current source that is not affected by temperature, that is, a fourth current source IR , and is given to the drain of the sixth transistor MP6. Here, since the cathode of the third current source I PTAT is connected to the anode of the fourth current source IR , and the fourth current source IR is a constant current source that is not affected by temperature, the drain current of the sixth transistor MP6 is the difference between the currents of the third current source I PTAT and the fourth current source IR . Therefore, when the third current source I PTAT obtains a current proportional to the ambient temperature, the drain current of the sixth transistor MP6 is linearly inversely proportional to the ambient temperature.
在一些实施例中,第五晶体管MP5的第三端和第六晶体管MP6的第三端连接,第五晶体管MP5的第一端和第六晶体管MP6的第一端均与电源VDD电连接,因此,第五晶体管MP5和第六晶体管MP6构成电流镜电路,基于第六晶体管MP6的漏极电流,第五晶体管MP5的漏极输出第六晶体管MP6的漏极电流对应的镜像电流,该镜像电流与环境温度成线性反比。In some embodiments, the third end of the fifth transistor MP5 is connected to the third end of the sixth transistor MP6, and the first end of the fifth transistor MP5 and the first end of the sixth transistor MP6 are both electrically connected to the power supply VDD. Therefore, the fifth transistor MP5 and the sixth transistor MP6 constitute a current mirror circuit, and based on the drain current of the sixth transistor MP6, the drain of the fifth transistor MP5 outputs a mirror current corresponding to the drain current of the sixth transistor MP6, and the mirror current is linearly inversely proportional to the ambient temperature.
这里,通过分压电阻R3和第五晶体管MP5的漏极端输出的镜像电流,使得第五晶体管MP5的漏极端输出基准电压VREF,基准电压VREF随环境温度发生变化,这里可以是基准电压VREF与环境温度成反比。Here, the drain terminal of the fifth transistor MP5 outputs a reference voltage V REF through the voltage divider resistor R3 and the mirror current outputted from the drain terminal of the fifth transistor MP5 . The reference voltage V REF changes with the ambient temperature. Here, the reference voltage V REF may be inversely proportional to the ambient temperature.
在本公开实施例中,滤波器30的温度等于环境温度加上由于滤波器工作产生的热温度,当滤波器损坏的阈值温度固定时,环境温度越高时,由于工作产生的热温度的阈值就越低,因此本公开实施例通过形成一个与环境温度成反比的基准电压VREF与滤波器温度相关的滤波器电压VSNS进行比较,当环境温度越高,滤波器热温度的阈值越低,而此时基准电压VREF就越低。In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the temperature of the filter 30 is equal to the ambient temperature plus the heat temperature generated by the operation of the filter. When the threshold temperature of filter damage is fixed, the higher the ambient temperature, the lower the threshold of the heat temperature generated by the operation. Therefore, the embodiment of the present disclosure forms a reference voltage V REF that is inversely proportional to the ambient temperature and compares it with the filter voltage V SNS related to the filter temperature. When the ambient temperature is higher, the threshold of the filter heat temperature is lower, and at this time, the reference voltage V REF is lower.
在一些实施例中,滤波器具有临界温度,当滤波器温度达到临界温度并继续升高时,
基准电压VREF小于滤波器电压VSNS,比较器的比较输出端out1输出高电平,经反相器inverter转换后,给到控制晶体管MN1的栅极低电平,MN1截止,此时,第一晶体管MP1的电流被限定在第一电流源ILIMIT输出的电流Ilimit,则第二晶体管MP2镜像第一晶体管MP1后的第二晶体管MP2的漏极电流IHBT的最大值被限定在M*Ilimit,从而限制了功率放大器的电流,进一步限制了功率放大器的输出功率,从而限定了滤波器的功率,阻止滤波器温度超过临界温度,以实现滤波器的温度进行调节。In some embodiments, the filter has a critical temperature. When the filter temperature reaches the critical temperature and continues to rise, The reference voltage V REF is less than the filter voltage V SNS , and the comparison output terminal out1 of the comparator outputs a high level, which is converted by the inverter and given a low level to the gate of the control transistor MN1, and MN1 is turned off. At this time, the current of the first transistor MP1 is limited to the current I limit output by the first current source I LIMIT , and the maximum value of the drain current I HBT of the second transistor MP2 after the second transistor MP2 mirrors the first transistor MP1 is limited to M*I limit , thereby limiting the current of the power amplifier, further limiting the output power of the power amplifier, thereby limiting the power of the filter, preventing the filter temperature from exceeding the critical temperature, and realizing the temperature adjustment of the filter.
在一些实施例中,当滤波器温度小于临界温度时,第二晶体管的漏极电流IHBT较小,从而基准电压VREF大于滤波器电压,比较器的比较输出端out1输出低电平,经反相器inverter转换后,给到控制晶体管MN1的栅极为高电平,使得控制晶体管MN1导通,使得Vgate电压较低,MP2管工作在线性区,此时,控制晶体管MN1的电流也流过第一晶体管MP1,第一晶体管MP1的电流增加,镜像MP1的第二晶体管MP2的漏极电流IHBT不受限。In some embodiments, when the filter temperature is lower than the critical temperature, the drain current I HBT of the second transistor is small, so that the reference voltage V REF is greater than the filter voltage, and the comparison output terminal out1 of the comparator outputs a low level, which is converted by the inverter and given to the gate of the control transistor MN1 as a high level, so that the control transistor MN1 is turned on, so that the Vgate voltage is lower, and the MP2 tube works in the linear region. At this time, the current of the control transistor MN1 also flows through the first transistor MP1, the current of the first transistor MP1 increases, and the drain current I HBT of the second transistor MP2 of the mirror MP1 is not limited.
在一些实施例中,如图5所示,电路还包括迟滞电路504,迟滞电路504与基准电压电路502电连接;迟滞电路504至少包括并联的迟滞晶体管MN2和迟滞电阻R4。其中,迟滞晶体管MN2的第一端分别与分压电阻R3和迟滞电阻R4电连接,迟滞电阻R4的另一端接地,迟滞晶体管MN2的第二端接地,迟滞晶体管MN2的第三端与比较输出端out1电连接。In some embodiments, as shown in FIG5 , the circuit further includes a hysteresis circuit 504, which is electrically connected to the reference voltage circuit 502; the hysteresis circuit 504 at least includes a hysteresis transistor MN2 and a hysteresis resistor R4 connected in parallel. The first end of the hysteresis transistor MN2 is electrically connected to the voltage divider resistor R3 and the hysteresis resistor R4, respectively, the other end of the hysteresis resistor R4 is grounded, the second end of the hysteresis transistor MN2 is grounded, and the third end of the hysteresis transistor MN2 is electrically connected to the comparison output end out1.
这里,迟滞电路504用于根据滤波器电压VSNS和基准电压VREF,改变基准电压VREF的大小。这里,比较器COMP的比较输出端out1输出高电平后,第二晶体管MP2的漏极电流IHBT被限定,进而滤波器的功率被限定,此时,迟滞电路504由于比较输出端out1输出高电平,使得迟滞晶体管MN2导通,通过迟滞晶体管MN2和迟滞电阻R4使得基准电压VREF进一步降低,当滤波器的热温度降低到滤波器的热温度阈值后,滤波器温度小于滤波器的临界温度,此时基准电压VREF大于滤波器电压VSNS,比较输出端out1输出低电平,迟滞晶体管MN2截止,如此,可以防止因热振荡导致比较器输出逻辑电平的反复变换,提高了元器件的可靠性。Here, the hysteresis circuit 504 is used to change the size of the reference voltage V REF according to the filter voltage V SNS and the reference voltage V REF . Here, after the comparison output terminal out1 of the comparator COMP outputs a high level, the drain current IHBT of the second transistor MP2 is limited, and then the power of the filter is limited. At this time, the hysteresis circuit 504 outputs a high level due to the comparison output terminal out1 outputting a high level, so that the hysteresis transistor MN2 is turned on, and the reference voltage V REF is further reduced through the hysteresis transistor MN2 and the hysteresis resistor R4. When the thermal temperature of the filter is reduced to the thermal temperature threshold of the filter, the filter temperature is less than the critical temperature of the filter. At this time, the reference voltage V REF is greater than the filter voltage V SNS , the comparison output terminal out1 outputs a low level, and the hysteresis transistor MN2 is turned off. In this way, the repeated conversion of the comparator output logic level due to thermal oscillation can be prevented, and the reliability of components is improved.

The power amplifier 10 at least includes a bias circuit 101-1 and an amplifier transistor Q. One end of the bias circuit 101-1 is electrically connected to the second end of the second transistor MP2 in the current mirror circuit 503, that is, electrically connected to the drain of the second transistor MP2 in the current mirror circuit 503, and the other end of the bias circuit 101-1 is electrically connected to the third end (that is, the base) of the amplifier transistor Q; the emitter of the amplifier transistor Q is grounded, and the collector of the amplifier transistor Q is electrically connected to the filter 30.
在一些实施例中,第一输入电流IHBT用于为偏置电路101-1馈电;功率放大器10用于对第一输入电流IHBT进行放大,并将放大后的第一输入电流输入至滤波器30。In some embodiments, the first input current I HBT is used to feed the bias circuit 101 - 1 ; the power amplifier 10 is used to amplify the first input current I HBT and input the amplified first input current to the filter 30 .
在本公开实施例中,基准电压电路502中,通过第三电流源IPTAT和第四电流源IR获取与环境温度成线性反比的电流,将电流通过第五晶体管MP5和第六晶体管MP6形成的电流镜进行转换,再通过分压电阻R3和迟滞电阻R4将电流转换为电压,从而得到用于与滤波器热温度进行比较的基准电压VREF,基准电压VREF随温度变化,将基准电压VREF与滤波器电压VSNS通过比较器COMP进行比较,从而通过控制晶体管MN1对功率放大器10的电流IHBT进行调节。In the embodiment of the present disclosure, in the reference voltage circuit 502, a current that is linearly inversely proportional to the ambient temperature is obtained through the third current source I PTAT and the fourth current source IR , the current is converted through a current mirror formed by the fifth transistor MP5 and the sixth transistor MP6, and then the current is converted into a voltage through the voltage divider resistor R3 and the hysteresis resistor R4, thereby obtaining a reference voltage V REF for comparison with the filter thermal temperature, the reference voltage V REF changes with temperature, the reference voltage V REF is compared with the filter voltage V SNS through the comparator COMP, and the current I HBT of the power amplifier 10 is adjusted by controlling the transistor MN1.
在一些实施例中,当滤波器温度小于临界温度时,第二晶体管MP2漏极电流IHBT较小,从而滤波器电压VSNS小于基准电压VREF,因此控制晶体管MN1管的栅端电压为高电平,此时,Vgate电压较低,MP2管工作在线性区。当滤波器温度一旦达到临界温度并继续升高时,控制晶体管MN1管的栅端电压转换为低电平,MN1截止,第一晶体
管MP1的电流被限定在第一电流源ILIMIT输出的电流Ilimit,则第二晶体管MP2镜像第一晶体管MP1后的第二晶体管MP2的漏极电流IHBT的最大值被限定在M*Ilimit,从而限制了功率放大器的电流,进一步限制了功率放大器的输出功率,从而限定了滤波器的功率,阻止滤波器温度超过临界温度,以实现滤波器的温度进行调节。In some embodiments, when the filter temperature is lower than the critical temperature, the drain current I HBT of the second transistor MP2 is small, so that the filter voltage V SNS is lower than the reference voltage V REF , so the gate voltage of the control transistor MN1 is high. At this time, the Vgate voltage is low, and the MP2 operates in the linear region. Once the filter temperature reaches the critical temperature and continues to rise, the gate voltage of the control transistor MN1 is converted to a low level, MN1 is turned off, and the first transistor The current of the tube MP1 is limited to the current I limit output by the first current source I LIMIT , and the maximum value of the drain current I HBT of the second transistor MP2 after the second transistor MP2 mirrors the first transistor MP1 is limited to M*I limit , thereby limiting the current of the power amplifier, further limiting the output power of the power amplifier, thereby limiting the power of the filter, preventing the filter temperature from exceeding the critical temperature, and realizing the temperature adjustment of the filter.

Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of the relationship between the critical power and ambient temperature of the filter provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, and Figure 7 is a schematic diagram of the relationship between the critical temperature and ambient temperature of the filter provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure. The relationship between the critical power (PTH) of the filter and the ambient temperature (Ta) is shown in Figure 6, and the relationship between the critical temperature (Tf0) of the filter and the ambient temperature (Ta) is shown in Figure 7, wherein, before the protection circuit proposed in the present disclosure, the critical power PTH of the filter in the related art does not change with the change of the ambient temperature Ta, which will cause the critical temperature Tf0 of the filter to increase linearly with the increase of the ambient temperature Ta, which will cause the filter to fail due to high temperature; and after the protection circuit provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is optimized, the critical power PTH of the filter decreases linearly with the change of the ambient temperature Ta, so that the critical temperature Tf0 of the filter does not change with the increase of the ambient temperature Ta, and the optimization effect is achieved.
本公开实施例不仅根据环境温度自动调整了功率放大器最大功率输出,实现了对滤波器温度的自动追踪;还通过模拟滤波器的热阻,将功率和温度联系在一起,并利用功率和电流的线性关系,对功率放大器支路电流采样,实现对滤波器的温度监控,从而实现对滤波器更精准的保护。The disclosed embodiment not only automatically adjusts the maximum power output of the power amplifier according to the ambient temperature and realizes automatic tracking of the filter temperature; it also links power and temperature together by simulating the thermal resistance of the filter, and utilizes the linear relationship between power and current to sample the branch current of the power amplifier to realize temperature monitoring of the filter, thereby achieving more accurate protection of the filter.
