    摘要: A current sensing circuit including a shunt resistor coupled, at one end, to the low-side transistor of a half bridge circuit and, at its other end, to a load. The voltage sensed across the shunt resistor is proportional to the current delivered to the load. A level shifting circuit is provided to transpose the sensed voltage to a low voltage signal which can be fed back to control commutation of the transistors in the half bridge circuit.

    摘要: A switch in an inductive circuit is prevented from avalanche operation when the switch is turned off. By preventing avalanche, the associated EMI is reduced or eliminated. Switch avalanche can be prevented using an active component, such as a transistor, or a passive component, such as a resistor, coupled to the switch gate to control current in the switch gate. By controlling current in the switch gate during turn-off, avalanche operation can be prevented without a significant increase in turn-off energy.

    摘要: A novel power supply control circuit topology uses a standard power supply controller to control a high side switch in an electronic circuit. A feedback voltage referenced to ground (or negative bus level) is level-shifted to a high side controller by means of a diode/capacitor/resistor network. Power to the high side controller is supplied by using the feedback output voltage. The circuit can be used instead of conventional flyback converters, particularly in low voltage applications. The circuit requires fewer pins on the transformer/inductor, leading to lower cost and size, particularly as compared to prior art flyback converters. Lower voltage rating required for the switch reduces noise and losses in the device.

    摘要: Conductive EMI in motor drive circuits is reduced by interposing inductors in the ground line. The common mode current enters the motor drive circuit through the two supply leads and leaves the system through the ground lead. The ground current typically is very high frequency but very low in rms amperage. Interposing an induction (low current, very high L) in the ground line advantageously reduces EMI. The inventive method reduces.or eliminates the need for filtering capacitors across the rectifier of the motor drive circuit. In addition, the inventive method minimizes the common mode choke to merely a wraparound ferrite core over the input wires. EMI emissions are reduced further by sandwiching ground traces along with power traces and connecting to.the heat sink with the shortest possible route. This reduces the ground loop area, which consequently reduces emissions.

    摘要: A circuit for synchronous rectification including two power MOSFET transistor switches in which the bottom switch is a P channel MOSFET, rather than an N channel MOSFET. The circuit of the present invention uses a single channel driver, rather than a dual driver and eliminates the deadtime associated with conventional circuits, thus minimizing reverse recovery losses. In an alternative arrangement, the position of the output filter is switched so that the N channel MOSFET conducts during the freewheeling time and the P channel MOSFET (with a larger RDSON) conducts during the conductor charge cycle.
