In described examples, an LED controller (100) includes: an input (114) connectable to a power source (110); and an output (140) connectable to at least one LED (102). A power factor correction circuit (130) is coupled between the input (114) and the output (140). The power factor correction circuit (130) operates in a first state when the power factor is corrected. The power factor correction circuit (130) operates in a second state when the power factor is not corrected. The power factor correction circuit (130) is in the first state when no dimming of the LED (102) is sensed, and the power factor correction circuit (130) is in the second state when dimming of the LED (102) is sensed.
摘要:
Apparatus disclosed herein implement a fast transient precision current limiter such as may be included in an electronic voltage regulator. The current limiter includes two current sense element/current clamp control loops. A fast response time control loop first engages and clamps a current spike. A precision control loop then engages to more accurately clamp the output current to a programmed set point. The precision clamping loop includes an inner loop to linearize the precision current sense element. The inner loop forces the drain-to-source voltage (VDS) of the precision sense element to track the VDS of the regulator pass element. A more precise clamping operation results. Overall speed is not sacrificed as the fast response time clamping loop operates in parallel to protect circuitry while the precision clamping loop engages.

A differential sampling circuit (100) includes a compensation circuit (140) for cancelling harmonic content resulting from a phase imbalance. The compensation circuit (140) includes a pair of field effect transistors (142, 143) operating in saturation mode, each field effect transistor (142, 143) coupled in parallel with the differential switch (122) of the sampling circuit (100), which operates in linear mode. The saturation region transistors (142, 143) across the differential switch (122) allow the harmonic content to flow through the compensation circuit (140) instead of the sampling capacitors (12, 13) of the sampling circuit (100).

A semiconductor device (100) contains a vertical MOS transistor (106) with instances of a vertical reduced surface field (RESURF) trench (112) on opposite sides of a vertical drift region (110). The vertical RESURF trench (112) contains a dielectric trench liner (114) on sidewalls, a lower field plate (120) and an upper field plate (122). The dielectric trench liner (114) between the lower field plate and the vertical drift region (110) is thicker than between the upper field plate and the vertical drift region (110). A gate (126) is disposed over the vertical drift region (110) and is separate from the upper field plate (122). The upper field plate (122) and the lower field plate (120) are electrically coupled to a source electrode of the vertical MOS transistor.

A sensor interface circuit coupled to the magnetic sensors generates at least one output signal or value representing longitudinal current flow in the conductive structure based at least partially on at least one signal from the magnetic sensors. Multiple wires (122) are electrically connected to the sensor interface circuit and extend outside the outer periphery of the conductive structure.
