Description
Technical field
This invention relates generally to comparator, and relate more specifically to based on the comparator of read-out amplifier.
Background technology
Comparator is nonlinear circuit, is commonly used for detecting the mark difference between two or more signals, and
Jing is used for analytic signal, such as memory and analog-digital converter in numerous applications(ADC)In.For example, illustrate that reading is put in Fig. 1
Big device 50(For example, it can act as the comparator in memory application).Specifically, this read-out amplifier 50 is used as regeneration
The cmos circuit of clock comparator.It generally comprises the PMOS of cross-join and nmos pass transistor Q2 to Q5, nmos pass transistor Q7
With the Differential Input pair of Q8, and clock circuit(It generally includes PMOS transistor Q1 and Q6 and nmos pass transistor Q9).When this
Clock signal clk is logic low potential or when " 0 ", and output end R and S can be precharged to the electricity on power supply rail VDD
Pressure, when clock signal clk is logic high potential or when " 1 ", then terminal R and S output valve according in input INM
Parse with the input value of INP.If the voltage on input INP is more than the voltage on terminal INM, then terminal S and R respectively by
Resolve to " 1 " and " 0 ";Conversely, when the voltage on the input on INP is less than the voltage on terminal INM, terminal S and R difference
Resolve to " 0 " and " 1 ".In addition, transistor Q9 according to clock signal clk by differential pair Q7 and Q8 and ground potential(Power supply rail)Connection
Connect and disconnect.
It is its " time constant " for describing the behavioural trait of read-out amplifier 50, it indicates that the propagation in input amplitude is prolonged
Late(Or " clock to Q postpones ")Correlation.It is less generally, due to the magnitude of the difference of voltage between terminal INM and INP,
Therefore there is longer delay for parsing the value on terminal R and S.This relation can be expressed as below:
(1)TPROP=max(tFIXED,tFIXED-τ*ln(|VIN|))
Wherein TPROPIt is propagation delay, tFIXEDBe with(For example)Voltage on change in process, temperature and power supply rail VDD has
The fixed comparator of pass postpones, and τ is time constant, and | VIN| it is the value for holding the voltage difference between INM and INP(It leads to
It is often differential signal).Generally, equation(1)Suitable for about 100mV or the signal of less magnitude, once and the difference foot
It is enough big, propagation delay TPROPIt is saturated to fixed comparator and postpones tFIXED.Therefore, for some applications it is desirable to reduce this propagation
Postpone TPROP, so as to quickly parse comparative result for value signal by a narrow margin.

Specific embodiment
With reference now to accompanying drawing, wherein for the sake of clarity the element is not necessarily drawn to scale and wherein in several figures
In be similar to or similar element indicated by same reference numbers.
As described above, expecting to reduce propagation delay T in some applicationsPROP.This can be complete by regulating time constant, τ
Into.The example of this application is the serializer/de-serializers that can be found out from Fig. 2 and 3(SERDES)Based on reading in system 100
The dispenser of amplifier.In operation, parallel data stream is converted to serial data stream by serializer 102.Then, this serial number
Pass through channel 106 according to device 104 is launched(It typically is communication media, such as twisted-pair feeder)It is transmitted into receiver 108.Then receiver
108 AFE(analog front end)(AFE)112 can recover signal from channel 106, and then the signal can be by ADC114(It is generally adopted
Dispenser 202-1 to 202-N, and it can be several ADC)Digitlization.Then DFE116 is filtered and equalized digitalization is believed
Number(That is, intersymbol interference or ISI are compensated), and deserializer 110 makes the output parallelization from DFE116.In this system
In 100, dispenser 202-1 to 202-N using the comparator based on read-out amplifier so that dispenser can to benefit from the time normal
The adjustment of number τ.
Fig. 1 is returned to, timeconstantτ is relevant with electric capacity.Specifically, this constant, τ with divided by transistor Q2 to Q5 across electricity
Lead gmLoad capacitance CLOAD(That is, τ α CLOAD/gm)It is proportional.This load capacitance CLOADTypically read-out amplifier 50 is intrinsic
Or internal capacitance CINTWith external capacitive C on terminal R and SEXTSum.In order to reduce timeconstantτ, it should reduce load capacitance
CLOAD, and increase transconductance gm.Increase transconductance gmCan mean that transistor Q1 to Q9 should increase size, but the increasing of size
Plus limited, because internal capacitance CINTIt is proportional to the size of transistor Q1 to Q9.Therefore, transistor Q1 to Q9 is only increased
Size will not obtain the effect wanted, therefore dispenser 202-1 to 202-N is using the comparator based on read-out amplifier, its
Middle external capacitive CEXTWith internal capacitance CINTDisconnect or isolate, so as to load capacitance CLOADIt is approximately equal to internal capacitance CINT。
In the diagram it can be seen that the example of this dispenser 202-1 to 202-N(It is 202-A by label).Such as this reality
Shown in example, external capacitive CEXTCome from output circuit(In this example it is generally made up of phase inverter 206 and 208)It is negative
Carry.Isolation circuit 204-A is connected between terminal R and S and phase inverter 206 and 208.This isolation circuit 204-A generally by
Pre-charge circuit(That is PMOS transistor Q10 and Q11)With resistor R1 and R2 composition.The pre-charge circuit(It is by clock signal
CLK is controlled)It is normally used for being pre-charged external capacitive C provided by phase inverter 206 and 208EXT, and resistor R1 and R2(Its
As isolation element)By external capacitive CEXTWith internal capacitance CINTIsolation.In addition, because transistor Q10 and Q11 are external capacitive
CEXTPrecharge is provided, so transistor Q1 and Q6 can reduce driving intensity(That is size), this reduces internal capacitance CINTGo forward side by side
One step reduces timeconstantτ.
Figure 5 illustrates another example of dispenser 202-1 to 202-N(It is 202-B by label).Dispenser 202-
B is replaced similar to dispenser 202-A except isolation circuit 204-A is isolated circuit 204-B.In isolation circuit 204-B, open
Close SW1 and SW2 and be adopted as isolation element.These switch SW1 and SW2 by clock signal clk ' control.As shown in fig. 6, raw
Into clock signal clk ', so as to the activation of the read-out amplifier 50 realized by clock signal clk and by clock signal clk ' it is real
There is non-overlapping period between SW1 and the activation of SW2 in existing switch.During these non-overlapping periods, isolate the external capacitive
CEXT, this allows timeconstantτ by internal capacitance CINTSetting.Output circuit(That is phase inverter 206 and 208)Time point after
(Once read-out amplifier 50 has parsed the value on terminal R and S)It is coupled to terminal R and S.
Due to using these dispensers 202-1 to 202-N, several advantages can be realized.First, the propagation delay of shortening permits
Perhaps dispenser 202-1 to 202-N runs at a relatively high speed(I.e. clock frequency CLK is higher).Second, comparator can be reduced sub-
Stability.And the 3rd, improve the bit error rate (BER) of ADC114 and whole transceiver system(BER).
Therefore by reference to some preferred embodiments description present invention of the present invention, it shall be noted that the disclosed embodiments reality
It is illustrative on border rather than limits, and in the various changes of middle expection disclosed above, modification, change and replacement,
And some devices of the present invention can be adopted in some cases without accordingly using other devices.Therefore, it is suitable
