    • An input protection circuit (IPC) may prevent an input signal from propagating into a system, such as an integrated circuit (IC), when the voltage level of the input signal exceeds a specified value. The IPC may be configured to compare the input signal voltage, which may be that of an external input signal received by the system, with a reference voltage, which may be the power supply voltage. If the input signal voltage exceeds the reference voltage, the output of the IPC may be set to the value of a specified clamp voltage. If the input signal voltage does not exceed the reference voltage, the output of the IPC may track (or follow) the input signal voltage. For certain integrated circuits, the IPC may be configured to provide circuit protection for an input signal voltage ranging between 0V to 5V, and a power supply voltage ranging between 3.0V and 3.6V.
    • 当输入信号的电压电平超过指定值时,输入保护电路(IPC)可以防止输入信号传播到诸如集成电路(IC)的系统中。 IPC可以被配置为将输入信号电压(其可以是系统接收的外部输入信号的电压)与可以是电源电压的参考电压进行比较。 如果输入信号电压超过参考电压,则IPC的输出可以设置为指定钳位电压的值。 如果输入信号电压不超过参考电压,则IPC的输出可以跟踪(或跟随)输入信号电压。 对于某些集成电路,IPC可以配置为为0V至5V之间的输入信号电压和3.0V至3.6V之间的电源电压提供电路保护。

    • A voltage reference is dynamically and digitally controlled by a digital function. The digital function may be implemented as a digital calculation or look up table. Inputs to the function include a modifiable trim value stored in a trim register, and a substrate temperature value. The preset value of the trim register is a trim preset value generated by cutting fuses and/or leaving fuses uncut. The cutting may be performed using laser trimming-devices. The output of the digital function is a corrected reference trim value that controls the gain of a voltage reference amplifier whose input is a band gap based voltage reference, and whose output is a derived voltage reference. The substrate temperature value is provided by a monolithic temperature monitor whose sensor may be on the same die as the derived voltage reference. The derived voltage reference provides a stable reference voltage that is dynamically and digitally controllable, to a host system that requires a voltage reference.

    • A system and method for increasing resolution of pulse width modulated (PWM) signal duty cycle calculations in a fan speed control system operating to control rotational speed of at least one fan. The method may comprise obtaining a temperature reading from a first temperature sensor in the fan speed control system during a first time period. The temperature reading has resolution of a first number of bits. A portion of the first number of bits is selected for calculating a PWM signal duty cycle with the resolution of the first number of bits in the temperature reading using only the portion of the first number of bits and zone parameters associated with the first temperature sensor. The PWM signal duty cycle may then be converted into a PWM signal that may be provided to the at least one fan.

    • A comprehensive power-on-reset (POR) and low voltage detection circuit combines a Power Supply Voltage Level Detection (PSVLD) circuit with an Enhanced Retriggering (ER) circuit. The PSVLD circuit establishes lower and upper thresholds of the desired operating voltage range, and provide initial POR triggering and retriggering when the supply voltage is within the desired range. The ER circuit senses a predetermined amount of drop in the power supply voltage being monitored, and generates an independent pulse at the POR node whenever such a drop occurs. Total DC current is limited to less than 2.5 microamps, while power supply voltages can be monitored for stability over the range of 2.5 to 5.5 volts.

A simplified POR and low voltage detection circuit establishes a single threshold and generates an initial POR signal when the supply voltage exceeds this threshold. The low voltage detection circuit causes a retrigger POR signal to be generated if the supply voltage then falls below this threshold. Total DC current is limited to less than 12 microamps, while power supply voltages can be monitored over the range of 2.5 to 5.5 volts.
