Abstract: A modulation system and method for a converter system, preferable a Delta Sigma converter, is described. The system is operable to adjust the modulation performed depending on the specified format of the input and output signals for the converter. The feedback and feed forward pulsed may be adjusted depending on the requirements of the converter.
Abstract: A switched-mode power supply (SMPS) and a method of control thereof is described, wherein the SMPS is operable to apply a spread spectrum modulation to a switching driver signal to reduce EMI in the SMPS. The SMPS is operable to perform voltage and current monitoring in parallel to the spread spectrum modulation to provide variable limit threshold detection and shutdown capabilities for circuit protection.
Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating second pulse signal from a first pulse signal. The second pulse signal has flanks positioned with a well-defined spacing. The width of the pulses as well as the frequency and phase correspond to the first signal. The apparatus employs a shape generator for generating a shape signal having uniform and well-defined flanks. A frequency generator produces a clock signal wherein the clock and phase correspond to the first pulse signal. The signal generator produces a second pulse signal from the clock signal and the shape signal for use in restoring distorted digital signals to ensure accuracy and signal integrity.
