  • Patent number: 10168718
    Abstract: A driving controller for driving a transistor, includes an operation unit, a first adjustment unit, a second adjustment unit, a first comparator, a comparison unit. A first terminal of the transistor receives an operation voltage. The operation unit is coupled to a control terminal of the transistor. The first adjustment unit is used to increase a voltage of the control terminal of the transistor. The second adjustment unit is used to decrease the voltage of the control terminal of the transistor. The first comparator and the comparison unit are coupled to the first terminal of the transistor and used to compare the operation voltage with a first reference voltage to a third reference voltage respectively so that the transistor may be controlled accordingly.

  • Patent number: 9257835
    Abstract: An output-stage circuit is disclosed. The output-stage circuit includes high-side output driver, first body selector, low-side output driver, second body selector and inductance. When output current is larger than current threshold value so as to make the low-side output driver generate overcurrent, the low-side output driver controlled by second control signal is disabled, and the high-side output driver controlled by first control signal is enabled so as to create first current channel. When output current is larger than current threshold value so as to make the high-side output driver generate overcurrent, the high-side output driver controlled by the first control signal is disabled, and the low-side output driver controlled by the second control signal is enabled so as to create second current channel to avoid current flowing through low-side output driver's body, and thus reduce the output current and voltage spiking of the output voltage.
