摘要： In a method performed by a PoE system, a PSE is able to detect whether a PD is compatible for receiving power via four wire pairs in the standard Ethernet cable. The PSE provides a current limited voltage to a first and second pair of wires in the cable, during a detection phase, to detect a characteristic impedance of the PD. In the PSE, a first resistor is connected to a third wire pair and a second resistor is connected to a fourth wire pair. During the detection phase, the PSE detects the relative currents through the resistors. If the currents are the same, then the PSE knows the PD is able to receive power via the four wire pairs. The PSE then applies the full PoE voltage to the first and second wire pairs and connects the third and fourth wire pairs to a low voltage via a MOSFET.

摘要： A circuit for protecting a semiconductor element is provided in a system for supplying power from an input node to an output node. The circuit has an analog multiplier responsive to a voltage across the semiconductor element and a current flowing through the semiconductor element to produce an output voltage. A transconductance amplifier is coupled to an output of the analog multiplier for receiving the output voltage of the analog multiplier to produce an output current. An analog RC circuit coupled to the output of the transconductance amplifier is configurable to include a selected number of resistive elements having selected resistance values and a selected number of capacitive elements having selected capacitance values. The configuration of the RC circuit is carried out to provide an RC thermal model that reproduces a desired thermal behavior of the semiconductor element. The RC circuit is responsive to the output current of the transconductance amplifier to produce an output voltage used to control the semiconductor element.

摘要： A method and system of driving an LED load. A driver is configured to deliver a level of current indicated by a control signal to the LED load when a PWM signal is ON and stop delivering the level of current when the PWM signal is OFF. An output capacitance element is coupled across a differential output of the LED driver. A feedback path, having a store circuit, is configured to store an information indicative of a first voltage level across the output capacitance element as a stored feedback reference signal just after the PWM signal is turned OFF. The feedback path causes the voltage across the output capacitance element to be at the first voltage level just before the PWM signal is turned ON.

摘要： In a PoE system in an automobile, Power Source Equipment (PSE) is connected to Powered Devices (PDs) to provide data and power via Ethernet wires. When the ignition switch is on, the full PSE voltage, such as 44 volts, is supplied to the PDs, and the voltage is regulated by the PDs to power one or more loads in the PD. During a standby mode, such as when the ignition switch is off, the PSE is controlled to output a lower voltage of, for example, 5 volts, and the voltage is regulated by the PDs to power the loads, such as processors, in a low power standby mode. The voltage regulator in the PD for the low power mode may be an efficient linear regulator, and the voltage regulator in the PD for the full voltage mode may be a switching regulator. Thus, there is improved efficiency.

摘要： A novel readdressing circuit is provided for supporting data communications over a data line and a clock line between at least one master device and multiple slave devices. For example, the master device and the multiple slave devices may be configured to communicate over an I2C bus including the data line and the clock line. The readdressing circuit has a data input node for receiving a data signal transferred over the data line and including an address word produced by the master device, and a data output node coupled to the multiple slave devices. The readdressing circuit also includes an address generator and an address transmit detections circuit. The address generator is configured for storing a multi-bit fixed offset value. The address generator is responsive to the address word at the data input node for generating multiple unique addresses for the multiple slave devices. The address transmit detection circuit is configured for enabling the address generator to generate the multiple unique addresses at the data output node when the address word is detected at the data input node, and for preventing an output signal of the address generator from being supplied to the data output node when no address word is detected at the data input node.

摘要： A differential amplifier may, when connected to a positive or negative supply voltage and to a ground voltage, provide a differential pair of outputs signals at a differential output that are an amplification of a differential pair of input signals at a differential input. A differential input stage may receive the differential pair of input signals from the differential input and may include a first transistor associated with one of the input signals and a second transistor associated with the other input signal. A differential output stage may generate the differential pair of output signals at the differential output and may include a third transistor associated with one of the output signals and a fourth transistor associated with the other output signal. The first, second, third, and fourth transistors may be all P type or all N type. The differential pair of output signals may have a common mode that is: near the ground voltage when the first, second, third, and fourth transistors are all N type and the supply voltage is positive with respect to the ground voltage; near the supply voltage when the first, second, third, and fourth transistors are all P type and the supply voltage is positive with respect to the ground voltage; near the ground voltage when the first, second, third, and fourth transistors are all P type and the supply voltage is negative with respect to the ground voltage; or near the supply voltage when the first, second, third, and fourth transistors are all N type and the supply voltage is negative with respect to the ground voltage.

摘要： In one embodiment, a regulator circuit for generating a regulated output voltage Vout has an error amplifier using a pair of bipolar transistors at its front end. The error amplifier compares the regulated output voltage to a reference voltage Vref. A precision current source draws a first current through a user-selected set resistance to generate the desired Vref. The regulator circuit controls a power stage to cause Vout to be equal to Vref. The base current into one of the bipolar transistors normally distorts the current through the set resistance. A base current compensation circuit is coupled to the current source to adjust the first current by a value equal to the base current to offset the base current. Therefore, Vref is not affected by the base current. The error amplifier may be in a linear regulator or a switching regulator. The compensation circuit may be used in other applications.

摘要： An RMS-DC converter includes a chopper-stabilized square cell that eliminates offset, thus enabling high-bandwidth operation. The chopper-stabilized offset requires only a small portion of the circuitry (i.e., a single component square cell) which operates at high frequencies, and is amenable to using high-bandwidth component square cells. Using the chopping technique minimizes required device sizes without compromising an acceptable square cell dynamic range, thereby maximizing the square cell bandwidth. The RMS-DC converter consumes less power than conventional RMS-to-DC converters that requires a high-frequency variable gain amplifier.

摘要： An auto-resonant driver for a transmitter inductor drives the inductor at an optimal frequency for maximum efficiency. The transmitter inductor is magnetically coupled, but not physically coupled, to a receiver inductor, and the current generated by the receiver inductor is used to power a load. The system may be used, for example, to remotely charge a battery (as part of the load) or provide power to motors or circuits. A feedback circuit is used to generate the resonant driving frequency. A detector in the transmit side wirelessly detects whether there is sufficient current being generated in the receiver side to achieve regulation by a voltage regulator powering the load. This point is achieved when the transmitter inductor peak voltage suddenly increases as the driving pulse width is ramped up. At that point, the pulse width is held constant for optimal efficiency.
