Highly linear time amplifier with power supply rejection

Abstract

A highly linear time amplifier with power supply rejection. In a reset stage, the threshold value of an over-threshold detector is used for resetting an output node of an amplifier, to eliminate the impact of power supply voltage changes on the threshold value of the threshold detector. A node capacitor unit is charged under the control of an input clock signal. After completion of charging, the node capacitor unit is discharged under the control of a synchronous clock signal. The time amplification gain only depends on the proportion of the charge and discharge current, and the charging and discharging time are completely linear in principle, which eliminates the nonlinearity of the traditional time amplifier, and reduces the negative impact of threshold change on system performance.

TECHNICAL FIELD

BACKGROUND

Time Amplifier (TA), is a device amplifying the time difference between electronic signals. TA can amplify the time delay, and is often used in the time amplification after Voltage-to-time converter (VTC), or is used in the increase of the input signal range before Time to Digital Converter (TDC).

At present, the traditional time amplifier usually charges or discharges the capacitor by using a resistor. By designing the ratio of resistance, the magnification of TA is designed. On the one hand, the structure controls the discharge time of the node capacitor by using the input signal, the discharge time will limit the input signal hold time, especially in applications with large amplification factors, which severely limits the working efficiency of the input signal generating circuit. On the other hand, the time amplifier of the structure discharges by using a resistor, the non-linearity is very serious, which seriously limits the application of TA in highly linear environments. In addition, the threshold voltage of over-threshold detector of the traditional time amplifier's varies greatly with fluctuations of power supply voltage, which seriously affects the performance of the amplifier. Therefore, it is urgent for a time amplifier that can eliminate the influence of power supply voltage changes on the amplification performance of the amplifier and improve system integrity.

The node capacitor unit may charge and discharge according to a control clock signal.

The switching power supply unit includes a plurality of switching constant current source modules, the input terminal of the switching constant current source module is connected with an output terminal of the clock control logic generating unit.

The switching constant current source modules SIC_CP and SIC_CN charge the node capacitors C_SP and C_SN units under the control of the input clock signals ϕ_CHAGP and ϕ_CHAGN; after charging is completed, the switching constant current source modules SIC_DP and SIC_DN discharges to the node capacitor C_SP and C_SN units under the control of the synchronous clock signal ϕ_DISC, thereby achieving the time amplification process.

The over-threshold detection unit TCDP and TCDN may perform threshold detection.

The reset network TCD_RST includes a threshold detector common mode generating unit TCDCM and a common mode output buffer VM_BUF interconnected with the threshold detecting unit. The threshold-detecting unit includes a first over-threshold detecting device TCDP and a second over-threshold detecting device TCDN.

The input terminals of the first over-threshold detector TCDP and the second over-threshold detector TCDN are respectively connected with the output terminals of the common mode output buffer VM_BUF. The input terminal of the common mode output buffer VM_BUF is connected with the output terminal of the over-threshold detector common mode generating unit TCDCM, which is reset according to the common mode level generated by the over-threshold detector common mode generating unit.

First, the clock ϕ_RST is high level, and the input levels of the first over-threshold detector TCDP and the second over-threshold detector TCDN are reset by the common mode level generated by the over-threshold detector common mode generating unit TCDCM. Then the clock logic generating unit CLK_LOGIC_GE generates clocks ϕ_CHAGP and ϕ_CHAGN according to the different clock delays of the input clocks CLK_IP and CLK_IN to determine the charging time of the switching constant current source SIC_CP and charging time of the switching constant current source SIC_CN, respectively. After the charging is completed, the constant current sources SIC_DP and SIC_DN discharge to the first node capacitor C_SP and the second node capacitor C_SN at the same time, under the control of the clock ϕ_DISC, until the input levels of both the first over-threshold detector TCDP and the second over-threshold detector TCDN reach their threshold values respectively, then the outputs of TCDP and TCDN are reversed to complete the time amplification process.
