    摘要: Methods, devices and circuits are provided for protection from backdrive current. One such device is subject to back voltage from an output node (output) of the device and includes circuitry (104,106) that is configured to compare the supply voltage node (VDD_IN) and the output node (output). In response to the comparison, the circuitry generates an output signal. Level shifted versions of the output signal are used to provide an output voltage corresponding to the higher of a supply voltage node and an output node. Switches (108,110) are used to place the device (112) in different modes in response to the output signal.

    摘要: An output circuit (34) includes a first transistor (T1) coupled to an external terminal (P2) and having a gate terminal that receives a first drive signal (S5). The first transistor (T1) drives a potential at the external terminal (P2) in accordance with the first drive signal (S5). The output circuit (34) also includes a capacitor (C1). The capacitor (C1) includes a first end coupled to the gate terminal of the first transistor (T1). A clamp circuit (46) clamps a second end of the capacitor (C1) to a potential corresponding to the operation of the first transistor (T1).

    摘要: The invention relates to an electrical circuit (10) for transmitting signals between two masters (11, 12) and one or more slaves (13, 14). The two masters (11, 12) and the slave or slaves (13, 14) are interconnected by means of a bus system (15). At least one master data signal (MO) can be generated by each of the two masters (11, 12) and can be received by the slave or slaves (13, 14). A tri-state gate (16) is present at the outputs of the two masters (11, 12) at which the respective master data signal (MO) is present. The tri-state gates (16) act either as closed or as opened switches. The tri-state gates (16) are actuated such that tri-state gate (16
    11 ) associated with one of the two masters (11) acts as a closed switch and the tri-state gate (16
    12 ) associated with the other of the two masters (12) acts as an opened switch.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a configurable power switch cell methodology may include designing multiple power switch cells which may be assembled to form a set of power switches such as a power switch segment (20A-20E). The power switch cells may all be designed to occupy the same amount of integrated circuit area, in an embodiment. Accordingly, one cell may be readily replaced by another, even late in the design process, without disturbing the placement of surrounding circuitry. In an embodiment, the power switch cells may include the interconnect layers that connect between cells, and abutting the power switch cells may automatically connect the interconnect between cells. Accordingly, swapping one power switch cell for another may be accomplished by placing the cell. No routing work may be required.

    摘要: A modified CMOS switch (402), composed of parallel N-channel (410) and P-channel (412) transistors, is placed between the pad (14) and the input buffer and/or output devices (404). The applied pad voltage relative to V DD determines the configuration of the switch (402), and also, the P-channel floating-well bias-voltage (nw). For the applied pad voltage above V DD , only the N-channel device (410) is on and the P-channel device (412,414) is off. In this configuration the N-channel limits the input voltage on the buffer side to (V DD -V TN ), and therefore, acts as the over-voltage protection device. For pad voltages at and below V DD , both the N-channel (410) and the P-channel devices (414) are on, and the voltage-levels on both sides of the protection structure are the same.
