  • Startup circuitry and corresponding method for providing a startup correction to a main circuit connected to a startup circuitry
    Patent number: 8324944
    Abstract: A startup circuitry connected to a main circuit which has at least an output terminal connected to its feedback terminal by a feedback loop. The startup circuitry is connected to the main circuit in such a manner to break the feedback loop, by having a first circuit node connected to said output terminal of said main circuit and a second circuit node connected to its feedback terminal, said startup circuitry providing a correct output voltage value during the startup phase of said main circuit.
    Type: Grant

  • Microelectronic device equipped with a thermal protection circuit and thermal protection method for a microelectronic device
    Patent number: 7626799
    Abstract: A microelectronic device includes a first circuit and a second circuit, coupled to the first circuit for selectively preventing operation of the first circuit when a device temperature is higher than a temperature threshold. The second circuit is provided with a temperature responsive element, thermally coupled to the first circuit for providing a shutdown signal correlated to the device temperature. The temperature responsive element includes a reverse-biased junction element and the shutdown signal is correlated to a reverse leakage current of the reverse-biased junction element.
