摘要： An example integrated control circuit includes a regulator, a first comparator, a second comparator, and a counter. The regulator is to charge, during a time period, a capacitor. The first comparator is to provide an output indicating when a voltage on the capacitor reaches a first threshold voltage. The second comparator is coupled to provide an output indicating when the voltage on the capacitor reaches a second threshold voltage. The counter is coupled to begin counting in response to the first threshold voltage being reached and is coupled to stop counting in response to the second threshold voltage being reached. The counter is coupled to provide an output representative of the capacitance value of the capacitor during the time period and the integrated control circuit receives a bias current at the terminal from the capacitor to provide power to operate the integrated control circuit after the time period has ended.

摘要： A regulator circuit maintaining an approximate constant current output characteristic. In one aspect, a disclosed regulator controls a switch that has a current limit threshold. A supply terminal and feedback terminal of the regulator are connected together as a control terminal such that a shunt regulator current is the control terminal current in excess of the internal supply current consumed by the regulator. The current limit threshold of the switch is changed as a function of the shunt regulator current. In another aspect, a control input of the regulator circuit receives a current that is the sum of the internal supply current consumed by the regulator circuit and a feedback current. The feedback current is a fraction of the consumption current of the regulator circuit and the current limit threshold of the switch is changed as a function of the feedback current.

摘要： A power supply including a regulation circuit that maintains an approximately constant load current with line voltage. An example circuit includes a switch including first, second and third terminals. The first terminal is coupled or decoupled to the second terminal in response to a control signal received at the third terminal. Voltage sense circuitry is included and is coupled to sense a voltage drop across the switch. The voltage drop is representative of a current in the switch during an on time of the switch. The voltage sense circuitry has a variable current limit threshold that increases between a first level and a second level during the on time of the switch. The control signal is responsive to the variable current limit threshold to regulate a power supply with an output characteristic having an approximately constant output voltage below an output current threshold and an approximately constant output current below an output voltage threshold.
