摘要: This document discusses, among other things, a compensation circuit configured to modulate a control voltage of a switch over a range of ambient temperatures during a conduction state of the switch to maintain a specified resistance between first and second nodes of the switch. The compensation circuit can include a temperature-insensitive resistor configured to provide a sense current, a current mirror configured to provide a mirror current using the sense current, and a temperature-sensitive resistor configured to provide the control voltage using the mirror current.

摘要: An apparatus comprises an integrated circuit (IC) comprising an external IC connection, an IC substrate connection, a voltage clamp circuit and an under voltage circuit. The voltage of the IC substrate connection is set to a first voltage when a voltage of the external connection of the IC is within a normal operating voltage range. The voltage clamp circuit is configured to clamp the voltage supply of one or more circuits internal to the IC to within a normal operating voltage range when the voltage of the external IC connection exceeds the normal operating voltage range. The under voltage circuit is communicatively coupled to the clamp circuit and configured to set the voltage of the substrate to a second voltage when the voltage at the external IC connection of the IC is less than zero volts.
