    摘要: A clamping circuit clamps a voltage received by an n-type semiconductor region without using a Schottky transistor. The clamping circuit includes a current mirror as well as first and second bipolar transistors. The current mirror receives a first current and supplies a second current in response. The first current is received by the first bipolar transistor, and the second current is received by the second bipolar transistor. The difference between the base-emitter junction voltages of the first and second bipolar transistors, in part, defines the voltage at which the n-type region is clamped. To start-up the circuit properly, current is withdrawn from the base/gate terminals of the transistors disposed in the current mirror. The circuit optionally includes a pair of cross-coupled transistors to reduce the output impedance and improve the power supply rejection ratio.

    摘要: Bidirectional power conversion systems provide the ability to change power attributes to and from a component. Current bidirectional power conversion systems use a unidirectional power converter for each direction. The integration of the two normally independent power converters results in a bidirectional power converter with nearly half the size, weight, volume, cost and complexity. Described are embodiments of bidirectional power conversion systems that allow power transfer between two or more components without requiring the use of separate unidirectional power converters.

The control circuit is capable of pulling the base-drive point down to a voltage of 3.0 volts or less to permit a current limiting resistor to be inserted between the base drive point and the base of the PNP pass transistor. The control circuit includes a pair of small-valued capacitors for providing stable operation with different output capacitors. The control circuit can also be used with p-channel FET pass transistors.

    摘要: An electrostatic discharge protection clamp particularly useful for with bipolar and biCMOS integrated circuits include an NPN transistor formed in an isolated tub in an epitaxial layer grown on a substrate. The collector of the NPN transistor is connected to the input terminal, and the emitter of the NPN transistor is connected to the substrate. A resistor interconnects the base and the emitter. Advantageously, the P-doped base can abut the P-doped isolation region forming the tub, and the P-doped isolation region can interconnect the emitter to the substrate. Below BV.sub.CES the clamp will look like an open circuit, and above BV.sub.CES the transistor will start conducting current. The transistor will break down collector to base. Conduction of the transistor causes a voltage drop across the base-emitter junction, and when this voltage drop exceeds the base-emitter forward voltage the transistor will turn on. Once the transistor is turned on and current starts flowing in the emitter, avalanche effects will cause the breakdown voltage to snap back to BV.sub.CEO and remain there until the emitter current drops below some low level, which will be at the end of the electrostatic discharge pulse. In the negative direction the tub to substrate diode provides an effective clamp which will clamp the voltage to a low value and limit the power dissipation in the junction. Alternatively, a bidirectional clamp can be provided in which a second NPN transistor is fabricated in the tub with the emitter of the second transistor connected to the input terminal and the collectors of the two transistors being interconnected by the N-doped epitaxial layer of the tub. The dopant conductivities can be reversed.
