    • Input offset voltage calibration of an analog device, or plurality of analog devices, is controlled by a microcontroller. The microcontroller and analog device(s) are fabricated on an integrated circuit die or in a multi-chip package. The microcontroller applies a digital word to an input offset voltage compensation circuit of the analog device for generating input offset voltage compensation. The analog device is switched to a calibrate mode and a voltage comparator compares the output of the analog input device and a voltage reference. When the output of the analog input device is equal to or greater than the voltage reference, the comparator output signals the microcontroller by changing its output logic level. The input offset voltage compensation circuit of the analog input device has a storage register or memory that retains the digital word which compensates for the input offset voltage.

    • An auto-calibration circuit minimizes input offset voltage in an integrated circuit analog input device. The auto-calibration circuit may also calibrate a plurality of analog input devices on an integrated circuit die or in a multi-chip package (MCP). The auto-calibration circuit and analog input device(s) may be fabricated in combination with a microcontroller system on an integrated circuit die or in an MCP. The auto-calibration circuit controls input offset voltage compensation circuit that counteracts or compensates for input offset voltage so as to minimize voltage error at the output of the analog input device. A digital control circuit applies a digital word to the input offset voltage compensation circuit for generating the required input offset voltage compensation. A linear search or binary search of various values of the digital word may be used by the digital control circuit. The digital control circuit switches the inputs, the output and feedback-gain determining resistors for the analog input device during a calibration mode. A voltage comparator compares the output of the analog input device and a voltage reference. When the output of the analog input device is equal to or greater than the voltage reference, the comparator output signals the digital control circuit by changing its output logic level. The input offset voltage compensation circuit of the analog input device has a storage register or memory that retains the digital word which compensates for the input offset voltage.

    • A time-based digital temperature sensing system has a first oscillator which is temperature sensitive. The first oscillator has a temperature coefficient which allows the first oscillator to generate an output signal which varies linearly as a function of temperature. A second oscillator is provided and is used to generates a reference clock signal. The outputs from the first and the second oscillator are coupled to a timer. The timer has a clock input coupled to an output of the second oscillator and an enable input coupled to an output of the first oscillator. From these input signals, the timer generates a number indicative of a length of time the timer is enabled by the first oscillator. The number is proportional to a current temperature of a material that is being monitored by the temperature sensing system.

    • A direct sensor interface (DSI) module which allows a microcontroller to directly interface to sensors having at least one of a resistive, capacitive, and/or current source characteristic. The DSI module is coupled directly to a sensor device, which could be a reference resistor, which generates a sensor current. A current mirroring circuit outputs a charging current proportional to the sensor current. A capacitive sensor and/or a capacitive device is coupled to the current mirroring circuit and generates a voltage when charged by the charging current. Using a comparator and a threshold voltage source, the time it takes the capacitive sensor and/or a capacitive device to ramp up from zero to the threshold voltage can be measured. The charging time is proportional to the sensor reading.
