This, Vcca is not initially to be driven by electric drive circuit on Vcca, and be held in low voltage level.
When Vdd2 starts to increase, and Pwrup3 signal remains low, ClampB be initially it is low and always remain as it is low, until
Pwrup3 signal is transformed into high-voltage state.When ClampB is lower, and voltage XVdd2 is increased, the upper electric drive circuit of Vccp is issued
Clamp signal also increase, and XVdd2 voltage is followed, to open NMOS N2.NMOS N1 and N2 is all in conducting shape
State, it is low that this remains the signal ClampBi of Vccp powered on drive.When ClampBi is low, as long as Vdd2 voltage is high
In a certain threshold voltage, the PMOS device P2 of high pressure Low threshold is opened, since Vcca signal keeps low, so that the voltage of P2 driving
Vccp ratio Vcca signal is higher, faster.
When Pwrup2 signal is transformed into high, disables NMOS N4, while enabling Vcca detector, make Ensb_cca and
Ensb signal is lower.Low Ensb signal opens the PMOS P3 of normal voltage, level threshold value, and makes Vcca signal to Vcca electricity
It is flat to increase.Vcca signal feeds back to Vcca detector.Once Vcca detector is opened, behavior is similar to the comparison for receiving feedback
Device or detection amplifier, i.e. Vcca signal are compared with reference to Vref_cca signal.Then detector is according to Vcca signal
It is no to be less than or greater than Vref_cca signal to control Ensb signal.If Vcca signal is less than Vref_cca, Ensb letter is enabled
Number and be converted to low to drive Vcca signal.If Vcca signal is greater than Vref_cca, disables Ensb and be transformed into high pressure shape
State;In this case, Vcca signal is not driven.
As long as Vcca detector is opened, this process will be repeated constantly.Vcca signal stabilization is attached in Vref_cca benchmark
Closely, which is maintained by Vcca detector.Therefore, before Pwrup3 signal is transformed into height, Vccp signal is charged in advance
Vdd2 rank.Once Pwrup3 is transformed into height, to trigger, ClampB signal is high, then Vccp signal is thus lifted to by charge pump
Higher level.Therefore, Vccp signal will be greater than or equal to Vcca level at any time, especially electric phase on a memory
Between.
When deep-sleep, memory (such as low-power consumption DDR3 DRAM) requires the power consumption of each chip to be less than or equal to 100uA.
In order to reduce the leakage current from external voltage XVdd1, XVdd2, internal power source voltage Vdd1, Vdd2 by PMOS device with
XVdd1, XVdd2 are disconnected, which is controlled by DPD signal.These internal power source voltages include Vdd1 and Vdd2 and other
Builtin voltage is driven to ground.
