摘要： A method is provided. A communication is received by an input pin of an IC over a single-wire bus, where the communication includes a command byte. If the command byte is an initialization command byte, a self-addressing operation is performed to identify a bus address for the IC. Alternatively, if the command byte is a data movement command byte, a data movement operation is performed. When data movement operation is performed, the bus interface of the IC is set from the transparent mode to the operational mode if an operation address from the command byte matches the bus address so that a register identified in the command byte can be accessed and data movement with the register can be performed.

摘要： A differential amplifier includes a differential input pair (2A) coupled to a folded cascode stage (2B) and a common mode feedback circuit (34) including a tracking circuit (30A) coupled to first (Vout−) and second (Vout+) outputs of the folded cascode stage (2B). The first and second outputs are coupled to first terminals of first (31A) and second (31B) tracking capacitors which have second terminals on which a first common mode output signal (VCM1) is produced and also are coupled to first terminals of third (32A) and fourth (32B) tracking capacitors, respectively, which have second terminals on which a second common mode output signal (VCM2) is produced. The first and third tracking capacitors are discharged by first (27A) and second (27B) switches that directly couple the first and second outputs to first and second inputs of a common mode feedback amplifier (4). A desired common mode output voltage (VCM-IN) is applied to a third input of the common mode feedback amplifier. The switches are opened to cause the first and second common mode output voltages to be generated, causing a common mode feedback control signal (VCMFB) to be generated for biasing the folded cascode stage.

摘要： Various systems and methods for temperature measurement are disclosed. For example, some embodiments of the present invention provide methods for temperature measurement that include exciting a provided transistor with at least four sequential input signals of different magnitudes. In response, the transistor exhibits a sequence of output signals corresponding to the four sequential input signals. The sequence of output signals is sensed using a different gain for each of the output signals included in the sequence of output signals, and the output signals included in the sequence of output signals are combined such that the combined output signals eliminates a resistance error. The combined output signals are then used to calculate a temperature of the transistor.

The first base emitter voltage is associated with a first sample period, and a second base-emitter voltage is associated with a second sample period. The pulse width modulation circuit provides a pulse width modulated clock including a combination of the aforementioned first period and second period.

Such temperature measurement systems include a variable current source and a diode connected transistor. The variable current source is capable of applying two or more distinct currents to the diode connected transistor.
