    摘要: An overvoltage tolerant CMOS tristate output buffer capable of withstanding tristate overvoltages without reverse currents or latch-up, the output buffer having a stabilized protection circuit for driving the N-well and gate of the P-channel driver transistor to the output pad voltage when the output pad voltage becomes excessive. The stabilized protection circuit includes a hysteresis circuit for controlling switch transistors which bias the N-well. The presence of the hysteresis circuit causes the protection circuit to have an input hysteresis characteristic, thus preventing excessive switching of the N-well biasing transistors when the output pad voltage varies near the output buffer power supply voltage during tristate.

    摘要: A gain control circuit including a resistor with a first terminal and a second terminal; an operational amplifier with an inverting terminal thereof electrically coupled to said first terminal of said resistor; a non-inverting terminal thereof; and an output terminal thereof; an amplifier circuit for transforming the voltage change of said operational amplifier output into a substantially exponential current change; wherein the output of said amplifier circuit is electrically coupled to said inverting terminal of said operational amplifier. The above described gain control circuit is able to perform wide bandwidth input signal buffering with linearity under low voltage and low power conditions. The circuit also offers low output impedances without the need of additional buffers and hence minimizing circuit size and manufacturing costs.
