3D thermal detection circuits and methods
Abstract:
A circuit includes sensing circuitry including at least one sensing element configured to output at least one temperature-dependent voltage. A compare circuit is configured to generate at least one intermediate voltage in response to comparing the at least one temperature-dependent voltage to a feedback voltage. A control circuit is configured to generate at least one control signal in response to the intermediate voltage. A switching circuit is configured to couple a capacitor coupled to a feedback node to one of a first voltage supply and a second voltage supply in response to the at least one control signal to generate an output signal having a pulse width that is based on a temperature sensed by the sensing circuitry.
