Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of multiplier-divider and method thereof.
Background technology
Traditional multiplier-divider is by bipolarity junction transistor (Bipolar Junction Transistor; BJT) form, therefore many shortcomings that cause from BJT are arranged.For example, BJT has high-temperature coefficient, so the output of the multiplier-divider of its composition also is subjected to Temperature Influence; BJT has high-gain, so the slight distortion of the input signal of the multiplier-divider of its composition all may impact the output of multiplier-divider, thereby the noise resisting ability of this multiplier-divider is relatively poor; The linear operation scope of BJT is narrower, thereby has limited the scope of input signal of the multiplier-divider of its composition.
U.S. Patent number 6,812,769 propose a kind of multiplier-divider that need not to use BJT, though eliminated the shortcoming that BJT causes, but need complicated circuit, and the cycle of its sawtooth signal fix, the maximal value of sawtooth signal is proportional to the divisor input signal, also needs pulse generator to provide extra pulse signal to sawtooth generator.Such circuit relatively lacks flexibility on using, size is big, cost is higher.

Embodiment
Below in conjunction with Figure of description the specific embodiment of the present invention is done detailed description.
As shown in Figure 1, multiplier-divider 10 according to the present invention is in order to produce output voltage from input current IA and input voltage VB and VC
VOUT=k (IA * VB ÷ VC), [formula 1]
Wherein k is a scale-up factor.In multiplier-divider 10, sawtooth generator 12 produces sawtooth signal Vsaw according to input voltage VC, comparer 14 is input voltage VB and sawtooth signal Vsaw generation comparison signal Sc relatively, pulse generator 16 produces clear signal CLR and sampled signal SMP according to comparison signal Sc, switch SW 1 is connected between input end IA and the capacitor C 2, be controlled by comparison signal Sc, switch SW 2 is in parallel with capacitor C 2, be controlled by clear signal CLR, sampling and holding circuit 18 are according to the voltage VM sampling generation output voltage VO UT of sampled signal SMP to capacitor C 2.In sampling and holding circuit 18, operational amplifier 20 is connected into the voltage follower device, and the positive input terminal of operational amplifier 20 connects capacitor C 2, and switch SW 3 is connected between the output terminal and capacitor C 1 of operational amplifier 20, is controlled by sampled signal SMP.
With U.S. Patent number 6,812,769 compare, and sawtooth generator 12 does not need extra pulse signal control, so circuit is simpler, and input end is also less; Pulse generator 16 utilizes the comparison signal Sc in control capacitance C2 duration of charging to produce clear signal CLR and sampled signal SMP, directly know the time that capacitor C 2 chargings finish, therefore only need simple logical circuit, and pulse generator 16 need not to provide pulse signal to sawtooth generator 12, therefore circuit is simpler, and output terminal is also less; The signal Sc of gauge tap SW1 is by sawtooth signal Vsaw decision, and is irrelevant with pulse generator 16, so circuit is simpler.
The operating principle of sawtooth generator 12 is as pierce circuit.Fig. 2 is the embodiment of sawtooth generator 12, wherein current source 22 produces charging current Iosc according to input voltage VC, switch SW 4 is connected between current source 22 and the capacitor C osc, switch SW 5 is in parallel with capacitor C osc, charging signals S2 and discharge signal S3 be gauge tap SW4 and SW5 discharging and recharging with control capacitance Cosc respectively, comparer 24 is the voltage Vsaw of capacitor C osc and reference value VTH and produce comparison signal S1 relatively, phase inverter 26 anti-phase comparison signal S1 produce discharge signal S3, phase inverter 28 anti-phase discharge signal S3 produce charging signals S2, and the voltage Vsaw that takes out from capacitor C osc is sawtooth signal.Fig. 3 is the embodiment of current source 22, and wherein operational amplifier 30, transistor M1 and resistance R osc form voltage current adapter 31, and VC converts electric current to input voltage
Ic=VC/Rosc, [formula 2]
Current mirror 32 mirror electric current I c produce electric current I osc.
Fig. 4 is the embodiment of pulse generator 16, it comprise a plurality of series connection phase inverter 34~46 and two and the door 48 and 50, comparison signal Sc produces signal VR, VRB, S4 and S5 after phase inverter 34~46 postpones and be anti-phase, produce sampled signal SMP with door 48 according to signal VR and S4, produce clear signal CLR according to signal VRB and S5 with door 50.
Fig. 5 is the oscillogram of Fig. 1, and wherein waveform 52 is the reference value VTH among Fig. 2, and waveform 54 is sawtooth signal Vsaw, and waveform 56 is input voltage VB.With reference to Fig. 1 and Fig. 5, during time t1 to t2, sawtooth signal Vsaw is lower than input voltage VB, makes input current IA to capacitor C 2 chargings so comparison signal Sc opens (turn on) switch SW 1; When time t2, sawtooth signal Vsaw is greater than input voltage VB, so comparison signal Sc closes (turn off) switch SW 1, simultaneously sampled signal SMP opens switch SW 3 and to the voltage VM sampling of capacitor C 2; When time t3, sampled signal SMP off switch SW3 and finish sampling, simultaneously clear signal CLR opens switch SW 2 and makes capacitor C 2 discharges.
With reference to Fig. 2 and Fig. 5, when sawtooth signal Vsaw rose to reference value VTH, switch SW 4 made capacitor C osc discharge for open circuit, switch SW 5 for closed circuit, so the maximal value of sawtooth signal Vsaw is not subjected to the restriction of input voltage VC by reference value VTH decision.System designer can change the setting value of reference value VTH easily, to adjust the maximal value of sawtooth signal Vsaw.When reference value VTH was certain setting value, the maximal value of sawtooth signal Vsaw was fixed, and was not subjected to the influence of any input signal.The cycle of reference value VTH, charging current Iosc and capacitor C osc decision sawtooth signal Vsaw
Tosc=Cosc * VTH/Iosc, [formula 3]
Its non-definite value.Suppose that the electric current I c among Fig. 3 equals charging current Iosc, then charging current
Iosc=Ic
=VC/Rosc, [formula 4]
Formula 4 substitution formula 3 are obtained the cycle of sawtooth signal Vsaw
Tosc=Cosc * Rosc * VTH/VC [formula 5]
VC is inversely proportional to input voltage.With reference to Fig. 1 and Fig. 5, suppose that it is Ton that comparison signal Sc makes the time of switch SW 1 conducting, then the voltage of capacitor C 2
VM=IA×Ton/C2。[formula 6]
By the waveform 52,54 and 56 of Fig. 5 as can be known
Ton/Tosc=VB/VTH, [formula 7]
So obtain
Ton=Tosc * VB/VTH, [formula 8]
Formula 3 substitution formula 8 are obtained
Ton=VB * Cosc/Iosc, [formula 9]
Formula 4 substitution formula 9 are obtained
Ton=(Rosc * Cosc) * (VB/VC), [formula 10]
Formula 10 substitution formula 6 are obtained
VM=(Rosc×Cosc/C2)×(IA×VB/VC)。[formula 11]
Again
VOUT=VM, [formula 12]
So output voltage
VOUT=[(Rosc×Cosc/C2)×(IA×VB/VC)]
=k(IA×VB÷VC)。[formula 13]
For system designer, the circuit of this multiplier-divider 10 has higher elasticity.
More than; only be preferred embodiment of the present invention, but protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, anyly is familiar with those skilled in the art in the technical scope that the present invention discloses; the variation that can expect easily or replacement all should be encompassed within protection scope of the present invention.Therefore, protection scope of the present invention should be as the criterion with the protection domain that claim was defined.
