    摘要: In an adaptive leading-edge blanking circuit and method for a switching mode power converter, an inductor current of the converter is sensed and compared with a threshold to decide an end point of a leading-edge blanking time. Circuit and method are further provided for preventing the converter from entering pulse skipping mode, which employs a current trimming circuit in an oscillator for a PWM controller in the converter to reduce a charging current in the oscillator if the output voltage of the converter is excessively high, to thereby reduce the oscillator frequency and in turn lower the switching frequency of a high-side power switch of the converter.

    摘要: A switching regulator may operate in a synchronous mode or an asynchronous mode. When the load current is higher than a threshold, the switching regulator switches a pair of serially connected high side and low side switches with a pulse width modulation signal. When the load current is lower than the threshold, the pulse width modulation signal is blocked not to switch the low side switch, the switching regulator switches only the high side switch with the pulse width modulation signal, the low side switch remains off, and a diode serially connected to the high side switch acts as a rectifier.

The current limiting circuit is further connected to the overheat protecting circuit and controls activation of the overheat protecting circuit when the current through the main circuit reaches the predetermined threshold value. Therefore, erroneous operation of the circuit protection device due to a shift in component characteristics of the overheat protecting circuit attributed to limitations in fabrication can be avoided.

    摘要: An inductor equivalent circuit is disclosed. The circuit comprises a reference current source, a first current mirror, a second current mirror, two operational amplifiers OP1 and OP2, a capacitor, a first transistor, a second transistor, a mirror resistor set, and a bypass current source in parallel with the capacitor. An input signal is through OP1 and second transistor to control the reference current source. The first mirror current is then feed-back a signal to the first transistor through an OP2. The current signal makes the drain current of the first transistor lags the input voltage signal by 90° due to the capacitor coupled with the first mirror current source. The mirror resistor set can be resistors having one common terminal grounded, and other terminals each, respectively, coupled with the first and the second transistor and the capacitor, or can be composed of transistors and all of them with gate property biased so that the transistors in the mirror resistor set are operated in an ohmic region. The second mirror current provides an output current of the inductor equivalent circuit for next cascade stage.

    摘要: A voltage clamping circuit that protects integrated circuits having multiple separate power supply voltage terminals from damage when an ESD event causes excessive differential voltages between the multiple separate power supply voltage terminals. The voltage clamping circuit has two subgroups of Darlington connected clamping transistors. The first subgroup of Darlington connected clamping transistors is connected between the first power supply voltage terminal and the second power supply voltage terminal. If the differential voltage exceeds the first clamping voltage level, the first subgroup of Darlington connected clamping transistors turn on and restore the first differential voltage to a level less than the first clamping voltage level. The second subgroup of Darlington connected clamping transistors connected between the second power supply terminal and the first power supply terminal. If the differential voltage exceeds the second clamping voltage level, the second subgroup of Darlington connected transistors turn on and restore the differential voltage to a level less than the second clamping voltage level.
