摘要: Described embodiments include a voltage converter power circuit having a high-voltage rated first transistor with a first current terminal coupled to an input voltage terminal, and a second current terminal. A second transistor, a low-voltage rated transistor, has a second control terminal, a third current terminal coupled to the second current terminal, and a fourth current terminal coupled to a switching terminal. A third transistor, a high-voltage rated transistor, has a fifth current terminal coupled to the switching terminal, a sixth current terminal, and a third control terminal. A fourth transistor, a low-voltage rated transistor, is coupled between the sixth current terminal and a ground terminal. A bleeder circuit is coupled between the seventh and eighth current terminals and is configured to prevent a voltage across the fourth transistor from exceeding a breakdown voltage.

摘要: A circuit includes a charge pump to generate an output reference voltage. A first bootstrap refresh circuit receives the reference voltage from the charge pump and is coupled between first and second bootstrap nodes of a DC/DC converter. The first bootstrap refresh circuit supplies first charge current that is sourced from the first bootstrap node to the second bootstrap node based on a control signal indicating a first operating mode of the DC/DC converter. A second bootstrap refresh circuit receives the reference voltage from the charge pump and is coupled between the first and second bootstrap nodes of the DC/DC converter. The second bootstrap refresh circuit supplies second charge current from the second bootstrap node to the first bootstrap node based on the control signal indicating a second operating mode of the DC/DC converter.
