    • A method includes generating an output voltage using a constant on-time or constant off-time (COT) switching regulator. The switching regulator includes a switch and an output capacitor. The method also includes sensing a first current flowing through a sensing capacitor, where the first current is proportional to a second current flowing through the output capacitor. The method further includes controlling the switch based on the sensed first current. Controlling the switch could include generating a feedback voltage using the sensed first current, combining the feedback and output voltages to generate a combined voltage, comparing a scaled version of the combined voltage and a reference voltage, and triggering a one-shot timer based on the comparison. A capacitance of the output capacitor may be greater than a capacitance of the sensing capacitor by a factor of N, and a transimpedance amplifier having a gain based on N could generate the feedback voltage.

    • An apparatus and method for canceling variations in the beta for a bipolar junction transistor so that the diode equation can be employed to accurately measure the temperature of the transistor based at least in part on a ratio of two target collector currents and two measurements of the base-emitter voltage of the transistor. If the determined collector current of the transistor is relatively equivalent to one of the first and second target collector currents, the transistor's base-emitter voltage is measured and stored. An analog feedback circuit can be employed to change the determined collector current to be relatively equivalent to the first and second target collector currents. The analog feedback circuit can include an optional sample and hold component to further reduce power consumption and reduce noise. A digital circuit can be employed to change the determined collector current to be relatively equivalent to the first and second target collector currents. Additionally, the transistor can be remotely located in another integrated circuit.

    • An analog system consists of a multitude of interconnected components. Design of such a system involves optimization of the component parameters to achieve a target behavior, collectively called specification. The present invention provides a generic cost function for analog design optimization. It also provides cost surface modeling to speed up the optimization. The cost function compares the behavior of a design to a quantitative specification, which can be a ‘golden’ reference behavior (specification), and measures the error cost, an index of the behavioral discrepancy. That is, the target behavior is explicitly embedded in the cost function. By using the cost function, one can readily qualify a design and thereby identify good/optimum designs. The cost surface modeling with a Latin Hypercube Sampling design-of-experiment provides a statistical mathematical approximation of the actual design's error cost surface, speeding up the optimization by replacing the costly simulation of the actual design with mere evaluation of the mathematical cost surface model expression.

    • A system and method is disclosed for providing a resistor protect layer to protect a thin film resistor in a semiconductor device. A thin film resistor is formed on a dielectric layer and a resistor protect layer is placed over the thin film resistor. An etch procedure is employed to facet the corners of the resistor protect layer. The faceted corners of the resistor protect layer reduce the step height of the resistor protect layer. Then a conductor is deposited over the resistor protect layer and the dielectric layer. When portions of the conductor are subsequently etched away, the resistor protect layer protects the underlying thin film resistor from being exposed to the etch process.
