摘要： A current sense resistor circuit may include a primary current sense resistor that drifts with age. A secondary current sense resistor may drift with age in substantial unison with the primary current sense resistor. A calibration resistor may not drift with age in substantial unison with the primary current sense resistor. A compensation circuit may compensate for aging drift in the resistance of the primary current sense resistor based on a comparison of the calibration resistor with the secondary current sense resistor. The secondary current sense resistor may be in parallel with the primary current sense resistor, except when the compensation circuit is comparing the calibration resistor with the secondary current sense resistor.

摘要： Method and system for measuring the resistance of a resistive structure having at least three nodes. A first calibration signal is determined by measuring a voltage at an output of the resistance structure when no calibration current is injected into a third node between the first and second nodes of the structure. A calibration current is then injected into the third node and a second calibration signal is determined. The absolute value of the difference between the first calibration signal and the second calibration signal is determined, the absolute value being proportional to a product of the resistance of the resistive structure and the calibration current.

摘要： A power supply system includes a regulator circuit responsive to an input signal at the input node for producing an output signal at the output node at a desired level. The regulator circuit has a controller, an inductive element and a first switch coupled to the inductor element and controlled by the controller to produce the output signal. Also, the power supply system includes a Coulomb counter for producing a Coulomb count signal proportional to the number of Coulombs passing from the input node to the output node. The Coulomb counter is enabled by an enabling signal representing a predetermined time period, for determining the number of Coulombs passing from the input node to the output node during that predetermined time period.

摘要： A method of fabricating an instrumentation amplifier to have an improved common mode rejection ratio (CMRR) vs. frequency initially trims resistors in the input amplifiers of the instrumentation amplifier during a DC test, where the inputs are shorted and a DC voltage is applied, so that the output of the amplifier is approximately zero. This will normally cause the transconductances of the two input amplifiers to be different. Thus, the AC CMRR will degrade with frequency. Trimmable capacitors are provided in the input section and are trimmed during a common mode AC test to cause the output voltage to be minimized during the AC test. This causes the two input amplifiers to have the same bandwidth and gm/C ratio.
摘要翻译：在直流测试期间，在输入短路和施加直流电压的情况下，制造具有改进的共模抑制比（CMRR）与频率的仪器放大器的方法最初对仪表放大器的输入放大器中的电阻器进行微调，因此放大器的输出大约为零。这通常会导致两个输入放大器的跨导不同。因此，AC CMRR将随着频率而降级。在输入部分提供了可调电容器，并在共模交流测试期间进行了修整，以在AC测试期间使输出电压最小化。这使得两个输入放大器具有相同的带宽和gm / C比。

摘要： A switching regulator circuit incorporates an offset circuit, connected in a control loop of the regulator circuit, that, in response to a signal indicating an imminent load current step, adjusts a duty cycle of a power switch for the current step prior to the regulator circuit responding to a change in output voltage due to the current step. In one embodiment, a load controller issues a digital signal shortly before a load current step. The digital signal is decoded and converted to an analog offset signal in a feedback control loop of the regulator to immediately adjust a duty cycle of the switch irrespective of the output voltage level. By proper timing of the offset, output voltage ripple is greatly reduced. The current offset may also be used to rapidly change the output voltage in response to an external signal requesting a voltage step.

摘要： A flyback controller generates a switching signal for controlling delivery of current into a primary winding of a transformer in a flyback converter. The controller may include an output current monitoring circuit configured to generate a signal representative of an average output current in a secondary winding of the transformer based on a peak input current in the primary winding and a duty cycle of current in the secondary winding. The flyback controller may generate a switching signal that causes a chopped AC voltage from a dimmer control to be converted by the flyback converter into an average output current from a secondary winding of the transformer that is DC isolated from the chopped AC voltage and that varies as a function of the setting of the dimmer control. The flyback controller may not utilize a signal from an opto-isolator.

摘要： An apparatus and method for charging a battery includes a battery to be charged, a power delivery path configured for delivering power to the battery, and an integrated switching battery charger configured for charging a battery by delivering output power to the battery via the power delivery path based on input power from an input power source. The integrated switching battery charger includes an output voltage regulation loop and an input voltage regulation loop, both of which are configured to control the output current flowing out of the integrated switching battery charger to the battery. The input or output voltage regulation loops are further enhanced by adding a current source which is proportional to absolute temperature from the regulated voltage to the control voltage for the purpose of either regulating peak power from the source or to maximize energy storage in the battery as a function of temperature.

摘要： A method for automatically compensating a voltage regulator initially disconnects the error amplifier and compensation network from the feedback loop. A DC bias voltage is applied to the feedback loop to cause the regulator's output voltage to be at 90% of its nominal value. An AC perturbation signal is then added to the DC bias voltage to cause the output voltage to have a ripple at a frequency of the AC signal. The gain of the feedback loop and the phase difference between the AC signal and the ripple is then measured. The measured values are then used to automatically adjust operating characteristics of the error amplifier and the compensation network such that, when these components are connected back in the feedback loop during normal operation, the feedback loop has the desired gain and phase margin at the frequency of the AC signal, such as the loop's unity gain frequency.

摘要： A novel system and methodology for providing a volt-second clamp. A DC/DC conversion system configured for producing an output voltage in response to an input voltage has a transformer with a primary winding responsive to the input voltage and a secondary winding for producing the output voltage. The conversion system has a power switch coupled to the primary winding of the transformer and controlled with a converter control signal, such as a PWM control signal. The power switch is further controlled by a comparator that compares an input value supplied to its input with a variable reference value so as to prevent magnetic flux density of the transformer from increasing to an undesired level. The input value of the comparator is produced by a comparator input circuit as a function of the input voltage and an on-time of the power switch. A reference circuit produces the reference value that varies as a function of the input voltage.
