使用共栅极放大结构来补偿源跟随结构的插损是一种经济有效的方案。该方案将共栅级放大管放到源级跟随器的下方,二者处于同一个支路中。如图1所示,源跟随管M11的栅极与输入端Vin连接、第一极与输出端Vout连接、第二极与电源端VDD连接,共栅极放大管M12的栅极与偏置电压端VG连接、第一极接地、第二级与输出端Vout连接,电容CL一极与输出端Vout连接、另一极接地,电阻Rs一端与输入端Vs连接、另一端与输入端Vin连接,电容CR一极与输入端Vin连接、另一极接地,IB、ICR、IZL表示电流;其中,共栅极放大管M12放在源跟随管M11下方,M12对M11结构的高频插损形成补偿,实现带宽拓展。为保证该结构可以正常工作,需要源跟随管M11、共栅极放大管M12以及作为微电流源的MOS管均工作在饱和区。这就要求输入电压足够高以保证足够的电压裕度,而这一点在低电压设计中很难做到。Using a common-gate amplifier structure to compensate for the insertion loss of a source follower structure is an economical and effective solution. This solution places the common-gate amplifier tube below the source follower, and the two are in the same branch. As shown in FIG1 , the gate of the source follower tube M11 is connected to the input terminalVin , the first electrode is connected to the output terminalVout , and the second electrode is connected to the power supply terminalVDD. The gate of the common-gate amplifier tube M12 is connected to the bias voltage terminalVG , the first electrode is grounded, the second stage is connected to the output terminalVout , one electrode of the capacitorCL is connected to the output terminalVout , and the other electrode is grounded. One end of the resistorRs is connected to the input terminalVs , and the other end is connected to the input terminalVin . One electrode of the capacitorCR is connected to the input terminal Vin,and the other electrode is grounded. IB , ICR , and IZL represent currents. Among them, the common-gate amplifier tube M12 is placed below the source follower tube M11, and M12 compensates for the high-frequency insertion loss of the M11 structure to achieve bandwidth expansion. To ensure that the structure can work properly, the source follower tube M11, the common gate amplifier tube M12 and the MOS tube as a micro-current source need to work in the saturation region. This requires the input voltage to be high enough to ensure sufficient voltage margin, which is difficult to achieve in low-voltage design.

有鉴于此,第一方面,参照图2至图5,本公开实施例提供一种输入缓冲器,包括:第一电流镜模块101、第一源跟随模块102、第一共栅极放大模块103、第一尾电流源模块104、第一耦合电容C1;第一电流镜模块101与第一公共电平端、第一节点Q1、第二节点Q2连接,配置为分配第一源跟随模块102与第一共栅极放大模块103的电流比例;第一源跟随模块102与第二节点Q2、第一输入端Vin,p、第一输出端Vout,p连接;第一共栅极放大模块103与第一节点Q1、第一输出端Vout,p、第一偏置电压端Vbcg连接;第一尾电流源模块104与第二公共电平端、第二偏置电压端Vb、第一输出端Vout,p连接,配置为为第一源跟随模块102、第一共栅极放大模块103提供电流偏置;第一耦合电容C1与第一输入端Vin,p、第一节点Q1连接。In view of this, in a first aspect, referring to FIGS. 2 to 5 , an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an input buffer, comprising: a first current mirror module 101, a first source follower module 102, a first common gate amplifier module 103, a first tail current source module 104, and a first coupling capacitor C1; the first current mirror module 101 is connected to a first common level terminal, a first node Q1, and a second node Q2, and is configured to distribute a current ratio between the first source follower module 102 and the first common gate amplifier module 103; the first source follower module 102 is connected to the second node Q2, a first input terminal Vin,p , and a first output terminal Vout,p ; the first common gate amplifier module 103 is connected to the first node Q1, a first output terminal Vout,p , and a first bias voltage terminal Vbcg ; the first tail current source module 104 is connected to a second common level terminal, a second bias voltage terminal Vb , and a first output terminal Vout,p , and is configured to provide a current bias for the first source follower module 102 and the first common gate amplifier module 103; the first coupling capacitor C1 is connected to the first input terminal Vin,p , the first node Q1 is connected.

One path passes through the first source follower module 102 and is output to the first output terminal Vout,p , and the other path passes through the first coupling capacitor C1 to be coupled to the first common-gate amplifier module 103 and is output to the first output terminal Vout,p . The output signal Voutp is the sum of the outputs of the first source follower module 102 and the first common-gate amplifier module 103. The outputs of the first source follower module 102 and the first common-gate amplifier module 103 are superimposed and output through the first output terminal Vout,p .

本公开实施例通过将第一源跟随模块102、第一共栅极放大模块103分别设置两个支路中,构成并联关系,能够降低输入输出电压,从而能够应用到低压输入设计中,有利于实现先进集成电路工艺。The disclosed embodiment arranges the first source follower module 102 and the first common gate amplifier module 103 in two branches respectively to form a parallel relationship, which can reduce the input and output voltages, so that it can be applied to low-voltage input design, which is conducive to the realization of advanced integrated circuit technology.

The ability of the common gate amplification to compensate for the buffer circuit bandwidth can be adjusted. In addition to adjusting the size of the common gate tube M12, the current mirror current size and ratio can also be changed, which increases the design freedom and flexibility.
