Abstract: In described examples, an amplifier can be arranged to generate a first stage output signal in response to an input signal. The input signal can be coupled to control a first current coupled from a first current source through a common node to generate the first stage output signal. A replica circuit can be arranged to generate a replica load signal in response to the input signal and in response to current received from the common node. A current switch can be arranged to selectively couple a second current from a second current source to the common node in response to the replica load signal.

Abstract: A power control integrated circuit (IC) chip can include a direct current (DC)-DC converter that outputs a switching voltage in response to a switching output enable signal. The power control IC chip can also include an inductor detect circuit that detects whether an inductor is conductively coupled to the DC-DC converter and a powered circuit component in response to an inductor detect signal. The power control IC chip can further include control logic that (i) controls the inductor detect signal based on an enable DC-DC signal and (ii) controls the switching output enable signal provided to the DC-DC converter and a linear output disable signal provided to a linear regulator based on a signal from the inductor detect circuit indicating whether the inductor is conductively coupled to the DC-DC converter and the powered circuit component.

Abstract: An integrated circuit (IC) provides an improved fail-safe signal to a circuit sharing a fail-safe pin at which the voltage can be greater than the voltage of an upper rail. The IC includes a first circuit segment that receives a first fail-safe signal and a first power-down signal and provides an intermediate signal, wherein the first fail-safe signal indicates when the voltage at the fail-safe pin is greater than the upper rail and the first power-down signal indicates when the module is powered down, and a second circuit segment connected to receive the intermediate signal and to provide the improved fail-safe signal to the module.

Abstract: Aspects of the present invention provide a DC/DC converter for use with a supply voltage and operable to drive a load, wherein the DC/DC converter includes a VIN node, a VOUT node, a switching component, a filter, a comparator, a current detecting component and a control component. The VIN node can receive the supply voltage and the VOUT node can provide an output voltage to drive the load. The filter electrically connects the switching component with the VOUT node. The comparator can generate a comparison signal based on the output voltage. The current detecting component can detect when a current in a direction from the filter toward the VOUT node decreases to zero. The control component can control the switching component so as to provide the output voltage at the VOUT node in a discontinuous conduction mode to drive the load.

Abstract: Several circuits and methods for input offset control are disclosed. In an embodiment, a input offset control circuit includes a first input circuit and a second input circuit. The first input circuit is configured to operate within first common mode voltage range, configured to provide first input current, and configured to vary the first input current upon or subsequent to a variation of a voltage level in the first common mode voltage range. The second input circuit is coupled to the first input circuit and is configured to operate within second common mode voltage range, configured to provide a second input current, and configured to vary the second input current based on variation of the voltage level in the second common mode voltage range. Upon or subsequent to increasing the common mode voltage, the first input current is reduced and the second input current is increased.
