摘要: A three-phase load is powered by an SPWM driven inverter having a single shunt-topology. During operation, drain-to-source resistances of transistors of each branch of the inverter are determined. Interpolation is performed on assumed drain-to-source resistances of the transistors for different temperatures to produce a non-linear model of drain-to-source resistance to temperature for the transistors, and the drain-to-source resistances determined during operation and the non-linear model are used to estimate temperature values of the transistors. Driving of the inverter can be adjusted so that conductivity of each branch is set so that power delivered by that branch is as high as possible without exceeding an allowed drain current threshold representing a threshold junction temperature. In addition, driving of the inverter can be ceased if the temperature of a transistor exceeds the threshold temperature.

摘要: A method for operating an electronic device includes detecting, by a touchscreen controller, a touch point on a touchscreen; determining, by the touchscreen controller, coordinates of the touch point; scaling, by the touchscreen controller, up the coordinates of the touch point to obtain scaled up coordinates by overwriting a reserved portion of a touch event protocol with additional information corresponding to the coordinates of the touch point; reporting, by the touchscreen controller, the scaled up coordinates of the touch point to an application processor; and determining, by the application processor, the coordinates of the touch point with an increased resolution by converting the scaled up coordinates into a floating point value.

摘要: A three-phase load is powered by a PWM (e.g., SVPWM) driven DC-AC inverter having a single shunt-topology. A shunt voltage and a branch voltage of the inverter (across a transistor to be calibrated) are measured during a second period of each SVPWM sector, and the drain-to-source resistance of the calibrated transistor is calculated. During the fourth period of each SVPWM sector, the branch voltage is measured again, and another branch voltage across another transistor is measured. Using the drain-to-source resistance of the calibrated transistor and the voltage across the calibrated transistor measured during the fourth period, the phase current through the calibrated transistor is calculated. Using the other branch voltage measured during the fourth period and the drain-to-source resistance of its corresponding transistor (known from a prior SVPWM sector), the phase current through that transistor is calculated. From the two calculated phase currents, the other phase current can be calculated.

摘要: In an embodiment, a method for shaping a PWM signal includes: receiving an input PWM signal; generating an output PWM signal based on the input PWM signal by: when the input PWM signal transitions with a first edge of the input PWM signal, transitioning the output PWM signal with a first edge of the output PWM signal; and when the input PWM signal transitions with a second edge before the first edge of the output PWM signal transitions, delaying a second edge of the output PWM signal based on the first edge of the output PWM signal.

摘要: A circuit includes a field effect transistor having a gate driven via a drive signal. The field effect transistor has a drain-source voltage drop indicative of the intensity of a current flowing in the current path through the field effect transistor. The circuit also includes a pair of sensing transistors that include a first sensing field effect transistor arranged with its drain and gate coupled with the drain and the gate of the field effect transistor, respectively, and a second sensing field effect transistor having a gate configured for receiving a replica of the drive signal. The second sensing field effect transistor is arranged with its current path in series with the current path of the first sensing field effect transistor. A sensing signal at a sensing node is indicative of the current intensity flowing in the current path of the field effect transistor.
