    摘要: A multiplier has a MOSFET in a common source configuration. A MOSFET current source is coupled to a drain terminal of the MOSFET. An inverter has an input coupled to the drain terminal of the MOSFET. An output of the inverter gates two currents whose current magnitudes are proportional. A first capacitor has a first terminal coupled to a first of the two currents and a gate of the MOSFET and a second terminal grounded. A second capacitor has a first terminal coupled to a second of the two currents and a second terminal coupled to the first of the two currents. The multiplier is first reset by discharging a gate capacitance of the MOSFET and then allowing it to be recharged to a Vt comparator threshold after which a charge is removed from the gate terminal of the MOSFET reducing a voltage on the gate terminal below the Vt comparator threshold, causing the two currents to be enabled until the Vt comparator threshold reaches a previous Vt comparator threshold and the inverter turns off the two currents. In a next reset phase, the second capacitor holds a multiplied value of charge.

    摘要: Switching mode power supplies (SMPS) and control methods used thereof are disclosed. An exemplifying SMPS is coupled to control an inductive device. The SMPS comprises a voltage divider and a peak controller. The voltage divider comprises a resistor and a controllable resistor connected in series through a connection node. The resistance of the controllable resistor is variable, controlled by a control signal. The voltage divider generates a limiting signal at the connection node based on a line voltage at a line voltage power node. The peak controller controls a peak current flowing through the inductive device according to the limiting signal.

    摘要: Power switch controllers and methods used therein are disclosed. An exemplifying power switch controller includes a window provider, a sensor and a logic controller. The window provider provides minimum and maximum time signals to indicate the elapses of a minimum time and a maximum time, respectively. The sensor detects a terminal of an inductive device, to generate a trigger signal. The logic controller prevents a power switch connected to the inductive device from being turned on before the elapse of the minimum time, forces the power switch to be turned on after the elapse of the maximum time, and turns on the power switch if the trigger signal is asserted.
