Abstract: A power device includes a power switch circuit, a driver, a regulator, at least one power obtaining circuit, a first pin, a second pin and a third pin. The driver controls the power switch circuit to connect the first pin to the second pin or disconnect the first pin from the second pin according to signals on the third pin. The at least one power obtaining circuit obtains voltages from the first pin, the third pin, and/or the power switch circuit. The regulator converts the voltages provided by the at least one power obtaining circuit into a suitable voltage and provides the suitable voltage for the power terminal of the driver. Since the power required for the driver can be obtained from inside the power device, there is no need to add an additional pin to obtain power from outside the power device.

Abstract: A control device includes a first capacitor, a drive controller, a constant current source, a discharge-controlled current source, a current mirror, and a sample-and-hold circuit. The constant current source generates a constant current. The discharge-controlled current source is coupled to the constant current source and the first capacitor. The current mirror is coupled to the first capacitor and the primary side of a primary-side switch. The current mirror generates a copy current, thereby generating a copy voltage across the first capacitor. When the drive controller turns on the primary-side switch, the sample-and-hold circuit drives the discharge-controlled current source to sample and hold a control current from the constant current and the copy current. When the node voltage is higher than the copy voltage, the comparison circuit drives the drive controller to turn off the primary-side switch.

Abstract: A driving circuit device includes a first current source, a second current source, a first common-mode current elimination (CMCE) circuit, a second common-mode current elimination (CMCE) circuit, a current-to-voltage converter, and a first comparator. The current sources provide constant currents. The current-to-voltage converter includes a first current mirror and a second current mirror. The control terminal of the first current mirror is coupled to the second CMCE circuit. The control terminal of the second current mirror is coupled to the first CMCE circuit. The first current mirror and the second current mirror receive the constant currents, common-mode currents, and differential currents, thereby controlling the first CMCE circuit and the second CMCE circuit to generate a voltage difference that excludes a common-mode voltage corresponding to the common-mode currents. The first comparator receives the voltage difference to drive a field-effect transistor.
