摘要
A bias voltage generator generates the same bias voltage VBB for different external power supply voltages EVCC (for example, for EVCC=3. 3V or 5.0V). During power-up, the charge pump that generates VBB is controlled by an enable signal ExtEn referenced to EVCC. Later an internal supply voltage IVCC becomes fully developed to a value independent from EVCC (for example, IVCC=3.0V), and the charge pump becomes controlled by an enable signal IntEn referenced to IVCC. This enable signal IntEn will cause VBB to reach its target value, for example, -1.5V. This target value is independent of EVCC. During power- up, when the charge pump is controlled by ExtEn, the bias voltage VBB is driven to an intermediate value (for example, -0.5V or -1V). This intermediate value depends on EVCC, but is below the target value in magnitude. The intermediate value reduces the likelihood of latch-up during power-up, but the intermediate value does not go beyond the target value thus does not create a significant pn-junction current leakage in semiconductor regions to which the bias voltage is applied.
