Abstract:
A driving circuit includes first and second switches coupled in series, a delay generating circuit and a delay controlling circuit. The delay generating circuit and the delay controlling circuit are coupled to first and second control terminals of the first and second switches. The delay generating circuit is configured to alternately turn ON the first switch and the second switch in accordance with an input signal and with a delay between successive ON times of the first switch and the second switch. The delay controlling circuit is configured to store a setting of the delay, and control the delay generating circuit to generate the delay in accordance with the stored setting, a first voltage on the first control terminal and a second voltage on the second control terminal.
