    摘要: A circuit (10) and method for protecting the gate-source elements of an FET includes a circuit (12, 13) for providing a pullup gate drive current to the gate-source elements. A voltage sensing circuit (45) senses a voltage on the gate-source elements to produce an indication if the voltage has exceeded a predetermined level. The voltage sensing circuit (45) has a zener diode (48) and a current mirror with first (52) and second (51) current flow paths. The zener diode (48) and the first flow path (52) are connected between the gate and a source of the FET. When a voltage between the gate and source of the FET exceeds the breakdown voltage of the zener diode (48) and one V.sub.gs in the current mirror, a current flows in the first flow path (52) producing a current flow in the second flow path (51). A circuit (20, 23, 62, 58, 60) reduces the pullup gate drive current in response to the current in the second flow path (51).

    摘要: A threshold detection circuit (10) is provided which comprises an input node (12) and an output node (14). The input node (12) is coupled to a current mirror (22) through a resistor (32). The current mirror (22) is further coupled to another current mirror (16), which is arranged to receive a reference current proportional to absolute temperature. The reference current is mirrored and, having been increased by a multiplier is received by a current sink (28). When the voltage level at the input node (12) exceeds a predetermined voltage threshold level, the current exceeding the amount sinkable by the current sink (28) is directed to the base of a switching transistor (30) coupled to the output node (14), and produces an output voltage level at the output node (14) indicative of the threshold voltage level being reached an/or exceeded at the input node (12). The predetermined threshold voltage may be at a level exceeding the circuit supply voltage level and is independent of ambient operating temperature.

    摘要: A DC--DC converter having an input node receiving an input voltage V.sub.IN and generating an output voltage V.sub.OUT. A reference voltage generator provides a voltage V.sub.REF and a hysteresis voltage generator provides a voltage V.sub.HYST. A first comparator generates a signal determined from a difference between V.sub.REF and V.sub.OUT. A second comparator generates a signal determined from a difference between V.sub.OUT and V.sub.HYST. A latch is coupled to receive the outputs of the first and second comparators, and to generate an output. A driver circuit receives the latch output and generates a PWM signal used to switch the output stage. A double pulse suppression circuit masks off the latch inputs for a preselected time during the switching intervals fo the main power transistors to eliminate noise jitter.

    摘要: A single chip integrated circuit includes a boost regulated DC-to-DC converter and gate drive circuits integrated on the same die with a micro-processor, along with high density digital logic functions, analog functions, etc. The gate drive circuits are used to drive external power FETs, particularly high side NMOS. The micro-processor may also be some type of micro-controller or digital signal processor. By being able to place these functions on a single integrated circuit, a motor or actuator control system can be placed on a single chip. With appropriate sensors to provide feedback to the integrated circuit, a system which is capable of executing actuator move functions, such as position, velocity, velocity profile, torque, etc., and sequencing these events as well is included.
