摘要: A power stage, comprising of multiple power MOSFETs and control and monitoring circuits, is an important part of voltage regulators. The voltage regulator controller typically monitors the power stage output current to implement control and protection functions. Traditional power stages mostly adapt monolithic solutions, suffering from performance inefficiencies due to the LDMOS process, while co-packaged solutions with combined VDMOS and LDMOS processes suffer from potential large current monitoring errors due to different operating temperatures. The current invention proposes a current monitoring circuit with temperature compensation to cancel the temperature coefficient mismatch between the external power MOSFET and the current monitoring circuit. Therefore, the gain of the current monitoring circuit doesn't change with the temperature, allowing for high current monitoring precision, and the temperature compensation circuit doesn't affect the bandwidth of the current monitoring circuit, allowing the use of the output current monitoring signal for close-loop control and over-current protection.

摘要: A method for operating a normally off or normally on power semiconductor element. A threshold voltage change in a threshold voltage of the power semiconductor element in relation to a reference threshold voltage is determined. A switch-on gate voltage is applied between a gate terminal and a source terminal of the power semiconductor element for the purpose of switching on the power semiconductor element is changed by the threshold voltage change in relation to a reference switch-on gate voltage corresponding to the reference threshold voltage.

摘要: An integrated circuit device having insulated gate field effect transistors (IGFETs) having a plurality of horizontally disposed channels that can be vertically aligned above a substrate with each channel being surrounded by a gate structure has been disclosed. The integrated circuit device may include a temperature sensor circuit and core circuitry. The temperature senor circuit may include at least one portion formed in a region other than the region that the IGFETs are formed as well as at least another portion formed in the region that the IGFETs having a plurality of horizontally disposed channels that can be vertically aligned above a substrate with each channel being surrounded by a gate structure are formed. By forming a portion of the temperature sensor circuit in regions below the IGFETs, an older process technology may be used and device size may be decreased and cost may be reduced.

摘要: A power on reset circuit comprises terminals for reference and supply potentials and a voltage divider coupled therebetween. First and second transistors of a bandgap circuit are resistively coupled to the reference potential terminal and have bases connected to the voltage divider. Current mirrors couple the collectors of the first and second transistors to an output terminal providing an output signal indicating a power on reset condition. A first compensation transistor is coupled between the collector of one of the transistors and the reference potential terminal, and a second compensation transistor is coupled between the output terminal and the reference potential terminal to compensate the effect of parasitic substrate currents in response to an external interference.
