摘要: A power loss protection integrated circuit includes a current switch circuit portion (eFuse) and an autonomous limit checking circuit. The limit checking circuit includes an input analog multiplexer, an ADC, a plurality of capture registers, a state machine, and a flag output terminal. For each capture register, the limit checking circuit further includes an associated lower limit register and an associated upper limit register. The state machine controls the multiplexer and the capture registers so the ADC digitizes voltages on various nodes to the monitored, and stores the results into corresponding capture registers. In integrated circuit has circuitry that allows both a high voltage as well as a high current to be monitored. The value in a capture register is compared to upper and lower limit values. If any capture value is determined to be outside the limits, then a digital flag signal is asserted onto the flag output terminal.

摘要: A power loss protection integrated circuit includes a current switch circuit (eFuse), a VIN terminal, a VOUT terminal, a buck/boost controller, and a storage capacitor terminal STR. The controller is adapted to work: 1) as a boost to take a low voltage from the VOUT terminal and to output a larger charging voltage onto the STR terminal, or 2) as a buck to take a higher voltage from the STR terminal and to buck it down to a lower voltage required on the VOUT terminal. The current switch circuit outputs a digital undervoltage signal (UV) and a digital high current signal (HC). These signals are communicated on-chip to the controller. Asserting UV causes the converter to begin operating in the buck mode. Asserting HC prevents the converter from operating in the boost mode.

摘要: A system and method are provided for converting voltage-to-time-to-digital signals. The method periodically samples a continuous analog input and discharges the sampled analog input at a predetermined rate to supply a continuous analog ramp signal. The ramp signal is converted into an n-bit coded digital word representing the q most significant bits (MSBs) of a k-bit binary word, where q is an integer greater than 0, n is an integer greater than 1, and k is an integer greater than q. At least one bit of the coded digital word is supplied at a time representing the p least significant bits (LSBs) of the k-bit binary word. The coded digital word is converted into a single-bit pulse signal containing timing information representing the p LSBs of the k-bit binary word at an output, and the timing information is converted into the p LSBs of the k-bit binary word.

摘要: A multiple analog signal converter (100) simultaneously converts multiple analog signals (104,106) to digital signals (112, 114) using a single analog to digital converter (ADC) 102. A first analog signal (104) at a first center frequency and a second analog signal (106) at a second center frequency are processed by the ADC (102) to generate a composite digital signal (110) comprising a first digital signal (112) corresponding to the first analog signal (104) and a second digital signal (114) corresponding to the second analog signal (106). The composite digital signal (110) is digitally frequency shifted to recover the second digital signal (106). The first digital signal (104) is recovered by digitally filtering the composite digital signal (110). In some circumstances, a first radio frequency (RF) signal (118) and a second RF signal (122) are frequency shifted to generate the first analog signal (104) and second analog signal (106).
