  • Current sensing gated current source for delay reduction in a universal serial bus (USB) low speed output driver
    Patent number: 6124750
    Abstract: A circuit comprising a comparator circuit and a control circuit. The comparator circuit may be configured to present an output signal in response to (i) a reference current and (ii) a control current. The control circuit may be configured to generate the control current in response to (i) a first current source configured to present a fixed portion of the control current, (ii) a second current source configured to present a variable portion of the control current and (iii) a sense transistor. The second current source generally responds to a level of said control current.
