摘要： A level shifter includes a power supply rail conversion block, an RS latch and a digital detection block. The power supply rail conversion block comprises a first NLDMOS transistor, a second NLDMOS transistor, a first PLDMOS transistor, a second PLDMOS transistor, a first PMOS transistor, a second PMOS transistor, a first NMOS transistor, a second NMOS transistor, and a first inverter. A gate of the first NLDMOS transistor is connected to an input of the first inverter, a drain of the first NLDMOS transistor is connected to a drain of the first PLDMOS transistor; a source of the first NLDMOS transistor and a source of the second NLDMOS are connected to a referenced ground of an LV power supply rail. The digital detection block comprises a second inverter, a third inverter, a first delay chain, a second delay chain, a first NAND gate and a second NAND gate.

摘要： A resistorless CMOS low power voltage reference circuit is provided. The start-up circuit is used to prevent the circuit to stay in the zero state and stop working when the circuit gets out of the zero state. The self-biased VPTAT generating circuit generate the voltage VPTAT which has positive temperature coefficient. The square-law current generating circuit generates a square-law current which is proportional to μT2 through the VPTAT. Finally, the reference voltage VREF is obtained by introducing the square-law current into the reference voltage output circuit. The reference voltage VREF of this application can realize approximative zero temperature coefficient in the temperature range of −40° C.˜100° C. This application improves temperature characteristic which may be poorer due to temperature nonlinearity of carrier mobility based on the traditional subthreshold reference. This application can reduce the power consumption from μW level to nW level and realize low power consumption.
