    Abstract: A voltage detector operates to detect a system power supply voltage and generate a trigger signal. A control signal generator responds to the trigger signal and generates a control signal. A DC bias generator responds to the control signal by generating a DC bias. The control signal controls the DC bias to have a first value when the power supply voltage is a first voltage and have a second value when the power supply voltage is a second voltage different from the first voltage, wherein the first value is different from the second value. A dynamic DC bias is generated which can not only support a larger voltage scope, but also significantly improves signal to noise ratio. The system power supply detection may concern stop/start operation of an automobile engine.

    Abstract: In an embodiment, a power switch controller for driving a back-to-back power switch includes: an amplifier having a supply terminal configured to receive a supply voltage, an output configured to be coupled to a gate terminal of the back-to-back power switch, a first input configured to be coupled a source terminal of the back-to-back power switch, and a second input coupled to the output of the amplifier. The amplifier is configured to generate an output voltage at the output of the amplifier, the output voltage being an offset voltage higher than a voltage at the first input of the amplifier.
