圧をVG1とすると、NMOS5のIDS―VDS特性は
13として表わされる。動作点はC点となり、負
荷6の端子電圧はVSLである。 Next, the fact that the terminal voltage V SL of the load 6 becomes a constant voltage will be explained using FIG. 2. FIG. 2 is an example of a case where load fluctuation occurs. The vertical axis represents the source and drain current IDS of NMOS5, and the horizontal axis represents the NMOS5
represents the source-drain voltage V DS of .
Let's proceed by assuming that the impedance of the load 6 is a resistance. The line 11 represents the load impedance in a stable state, and if the gate voltage of the NMOS 5 is V G1 at this time, the I DS -V DS characteristic of the NMOS 5 is represented as 13. The operating point is point C, and the terminal voltage of the load 6 is VSL .
前記の安定状態から、12で示すごとく負荷が

となり、電圧比較回路の出力電圧は、増加する。
前記の出力電圧の増加により、NMOS5のゲート
電圧VGは低下する。これは以下の式より明らか
である。 When the load becomes heavy from the above-mentioned stable state as shown at 12, the operating point instantaneously shifts to point D, and the terminal voltage of the load 6 increases from V SL to V D . As the terminal voltage of load 6 increases, V A expressed by equation (1) also increases, and the relationship between the two input voltages is V A > V B
Therefore, the output voltage of the voltage comparison circuit increases.
Due to the above-mentioned increase in the output voltage, the gate voltage V G of the NMOS 5 decreases. This is clear from the equation below.
VG=VO―VSS
|VO|<|VSS|
ただしVOは電圧比較回路の出力電圧・NMOS

る。 V G =V O -V SS |V O |<|V SS | However, V O is the output voltage of the voltage comparator circuit/NMOS
The gate voltage of 5 decreases until the terminal voltage of load 6 reaches V SL . This state is shown in FIG. 2 as the I DS -V DS characteristic 14 of NMOV5. When the gate voltage drops to V O2 , the operating point becomes point E, and the terminal voltage of the load 6 becomes V SL , Stabilize.
負荷が軽くなつた場合も、同様にしてNMOS5

The gate voltage of load 6 increases, and the terminal voltage of load 6 becomes V SL
becomes stable. As mentioned above, the terminal voltage of load 6 is
When load fluctuation occurs, the voltage is made constant. Even when the power supply voltage fluctuates, the load 6
The terminal voltage of is made constant.
また本発明の回路構成によれば、定電圧VSLの

コンデンサの静電容量比を用いているため、回路
のIC化を行つた場合、プロセスのバラツキの影
響を少なくでき、良好なる定電圧精度を保証でき
る。この理由を以下に述べる。 Furthermore, according to the circuit configuration of the present invention, since the difference in V TH between different PMOSs (V TPE - V TPD ) and the capacitance ratio of the capacitor are used to design the constant voltage V SL , it is possible to integrate the circuit into an IC. If this is done, the influence of process variations can be reduced and good constant voltage accuracy can be guaranteed. The reason for this will be explained below.
一般にMOSFETのVTHのバラツキは、±0.1V程
度で、充分に制御されているとは言いにくい。こ
のVTHバラツキの要因は、IC表面電荷や基板不
純物濃度のバラツキと考えられている。このよう
に一つのVTHについて見ればバラツキは大きい
が、同一ICチツプ上に、イオン打込みなどの手
段でVTHの異る値を持つ、2つのPMOSFETに
ついて見れば、各々のVTHのバラツキは同じ傾向
と考えられる。したがつて2つのPMOSFETの
VTHの差をとれば、表面電荷や基板不純物濃度の
バラツキは相殺され、そのバラツキは非常に小さ
くなる。 Generally, the variation in MOSFET V TH is about ±0.1V, and it is difficult to say that it is sufficiently controlled. The cause of this V TH variation is considered to be variation in IC surface charge and substrate impurity concentration. In this way, when looking at one V TH , the variation is large, but when looking at two PMOSFETs on the same IC chip that have different values of V TH due to means such as ion implantation, the variation in each V TH is small. It is thought that the same trend exists. Therefore, by taking the difference in V TH between the two PMOSFETs, the variations in surface charge and substrate impurity concentration are canceled out, and the variations become extremely small.
またコンデンサをIC内に作つた場合、静電容
量のバラツキは有るが、複数個のコンデンサの静
電容量比は、コンデンサの面積比で決まり、IC
上の幾可学寸法の比は、高精度で作れるため、バ
ラツキが小さい。 Furthermore, when capacitors are built inside an IC, there are variations in capacitance, but the capacitance ratio of multiple capacitors is determined by the area ratio of the capacitors, and the
The ratio of the above geometric dimensions can be made with high precision, so the variation is small.
上記理由で、(3)式で表わされる定電圧は高精度
に作れる。 For the above reasons, the constant voltage expressed by equation (3) can be created with high precision.
また本発明の回路構成によれば、定電圧分圧回

回路での消費電流はほとんど無い。 Further, according to the circuit configuration of the present invention, since the constant voltage voltage divider circuit is configured by connecting two capacitors, capacitor 7 and capacitor 8, in series, there is almost no current consumption in the constant voltage voltage divider circuit.
