    • A comparing circuit and a control loop are used to maintain the peak level of current flowing through an inductor of a flyback converter. An inductor switch control signal controls an inductor switch through which the inductor current flows. The inductor current increases at a ramp-up rate during a ramp time and stops increasing at the end of the ramp time. The comparing circuit generates a timing signal that indicates a target time at which the inductor current would reach a predetermined current limit if the inductor current continued to increase at the ramp-up rate. The control loop then receives the timing signal and compares the target time to the end of the ramp time. The pulse width of the inductor switch control signal is increased when the target time occurs after the end of the ramp time. Adjusting the pulse width controls the peak of the inductor current.
    • 使用比较电路和控制回路来保持流过反激式转换器的电感器的电流的峰值电平。 电感开关控制信号控制电感电流流过的电感开关。 电感电流在斜坡时间内以斜升速率增加,并在斜坡时间结束时停止增加。 比较电路产生一个定时信号,其指示如果电感器电流以升高速率继续增加,则电感器电流将达到预定电流极限的目标时间。 然后,控制环路接收定时信号,并将目标时间与斜坡时间结束进行比较。 当斜坡时间结束后,当目标时间发生时,电感开关控制信号的脉冲宽度就会增加。 调整脉冲宽度可以控制电感电流的峰值。

    • A system involves LED strings and programmable current source circuits (CSC). An LED current flows through each LED string. Each LED current is controlled by an associated programmable CSC. In one embodiment, the CSCs form a chain. A first CSC uses a reference current for calibration, and thereafter supplies the reference current to the next CSC. When the next CSC detects the reference current, it uses the reference current for calibration. CSCs are calibrated one by one down the chain. In a second embodiment, each CSC can receive the reference current from a common conductor. If the common conductor is detected to be available, then the CSC uses the reference current for calibration. When the conductor is in use, the other CSCs detect the conductor as unavailable and do not attempt to self-calibrate. The CSCs use the reference current one by one, but in an order that changes over time.
    • 系统涉及LED串和可编程电流源电路(CSC)。 LED电流流过每个LED串。 每个LED电流由相关的可编程CSC控制。 在一个实施方案中,CSC形成链。 第一个CSC使用参考电流进行校准,然后将参考电流提供给下一个CSC。 当下一个CSC检测到参考电流时,它使用参考电流进行校准。 CSC在链条上逐一校准。 在第二实施例中,每个CSC可以从公共导体接收参考电流。 如果检测到公共导体可用,则CSC使用参考电流进行校准。 当导线正在使用时,其他CSC将导体检测为不可用,不要自行校准。 CSC一个接一个地使用参考电流,但按照随时间变化的顺序。

    • Techniques for an adaptive synchronous switch in switching regulators are described, one aspect of which is to achieve a more optimal on/off timing of a synchronous switch that is controlled by the comparator in a feedback control loop and thereby improves power conversion efficiency and system performance; One approach samples a node in the output of the switching regulator and generates a sampled error signal that is analyzed to determine if the current comparator offset is too high or too low relative to a target switching regulator output value at least in part based on the sampled error signal value, and accordingly generates a compensated feedback error signal and applied to the compensated feedback error signal to an input of the comparator to have the effect of a comparator offset adjustment signal.

Further, the lamp driving circuit may illuminate the lamps at a brightness that is proportional to the pressure that is applied to the brake pedal, such that a relatively high application of pressure to the brake pedal results in the lamps being relatively brightly illuminated. An antenna wire from an appliance in the automobile is connected to the structure, which acts as an antenna in one embodiment.

    • An LED lamp includes a rectifier, an integrated circuit and a string of series-connected LEDs. The lamp receives an incoming AC signal such that a rectified version of the signal is present across the LED string. The integrated circuit includes a plurality of power switches. Each power switch is coupled so that it can separately and selectably short out a corresponding one of several groups of LEDs in the string. As the voltage across the string increases the integrated circuit controls the power switches such that the number of LEDs through which current flows increases, whereas as the voltage across the string decreases the integrated circuit controls the power switches such that the number of LEDs through which current flows decreases. LED string current flow is controlled and regulated to provide superior efficiency, reliability, anti-flicker, regulation against line voltage variations, power factor correction, and lamp over-voltage, over-current, and over-temperature protection.

    • A packaged device includes a first die, a second die, and specially spaced and positioned sets of package terminals. The first die includes a pulse-width modulator (PWM), a processor, a timer, high-side drivers, low-side drivers, and a fault protection circuit. The second die includes ultra-high voltage high-side drivers. In an ultra-high voltage application, the PWM and external circuitry together form a switching power supply that generates a high voltage. The high voltage powers external high-side transistors. The processor and timer control the ultra-high voltage high-side drivers, that in turn supply drive signals to the external high-side transistors through the package terminals. External low-side transistors are driven directly by low-side drivers of the first die. If the fault protection circuit detects an excessive current, then the fault protection circuit supplies a disable signal to high-side and low-side drivers of both dice. The disable signal is generated without execution of processor instructions.
