Patent number: 10305503Abstract: A methodology for capturing analog information, such as from an analog sensor, including converting the analog information to a train of pulses, representing the analog information as the number of pulses in the pulse train. This pulse count data can be communicated to a processor configured to count the pulses in the pulse train, and convert this pulse count data into digital data corresponding to the analog information. An example embodiment uses a DAC/comparator to convert the analog information (such as a sensor reading) into a pulse train derived from a DAC count (such as can be generated by a DAC counter from an input DAC clock) that is compared with an analog magnitude (analog information), such that the DAC count, which can be represented by a number of DAC clock pulses, provides the pulse train (pulse count data) that corresponds to the analog information.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2014Date of Patent: May 28, 2019Assignee: TEXAS INSTRUMENTS INCORPORATEDInventor: Perry Scott Lorenz

Patent number: 8237467Abstract: A resistor-programmable device generates pulses counted by a counter. The counter's output controls a drive signal generator, such as an adjustable current source. The drive signal generator generates a drive signal (such as a current), which leads to the creation of a sense signal (such as a voltage) using a resistance. The resistance can have one of a set of specified values or fall within one of a set of specified windows. The resistor-programmable device can convert the resistance value into a digital value, which can be used to set a sensor trip point threshold or some other parameter. The digital or parameter value is independent of changes in the resistance that are within a specified tolerance. For instance, the same parameter value could be selected even when the resistance varies within some tolerance (such as 1%) as the resistor-programmable device can determine the window in which the resistance falls.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 2010Date of Patent: August 7, 2012Assignee: National Semiconductor CorporationInventor: Perry Scott Lorenz

However, after the completion of a settling period, the hysteresis is enabled for triggering based on the temperature.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2004Date of Patent: March 13, 2012Assignee: National Semiconductor CorporationInventor: Perry Scott Lorenz

Patent number: 7524107Abstract: A thermostat circuit is arranged for dual purpose operation to save pins in a small package. The circuit includes a temperature sensor circuit, a trip-point reference circuit, a switching circuit, an amplifier circuit, and a comparator circuit. The trip-point reference circuit provides a reference voltage that corresponds to a desired trip-point level. The temperature sensor circuit provides a sense voltage that corresponds to temperature. During a normal operating mode the sense voltage is coupled to the input of the amplifier circuit via the switching circuit, while during a test mode the reference voltage is coupled to an input of the amplifier circuit. The amplifier circuit buffers a voltage to one output pin. The comparator circuit compares the reference voltage to the sense voltage to provide a trip-point detection voltage for another output pin. An input pin is provided for selection of either a test mode or a non-test mode.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2006Date of Patent: April 28, 2009Assignee: National Semiconductor CorporationInventor: Perry Scott Lorenz

Patent number: 7403052Abstract: A power-on detection circuit is arranged to cooperate with a thermal-voltage generator to determine when predictable circuit operation is achieved. The power-on detection circuit includes a comparator circuit and an inverter circuit. A power-on reset (POR) signal is generated by the inverter circuit, which evaluate an output of the comparator circuit. The comparator circuit includes a differential pair arrangement that is imbalanced with a resistor. The differential pair in the comparator circuit is arranged to determine when the thermal voltage has reached a desired target level by evaluating two points within the thermal-voltage generator circuit. The comparator circuit can have a target level that is below 100% of full operation to improve reliability.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2006Date of Patent: July 22, 2008Assignee: National Semiconductor CorporationInventor: Perry Scott Lorenz

Patent number: 7388423Abstract: A start-up circuit includes a long channel current generator, a subtracting reference current generator, and a gain scaling current mirror-circuit. The long channel current generator circuit uses a long channel transistor circuit that simulates a high value resistor to provide a low-level current. The low-level current is sensed by the subtracting reference current generator to provide a reference current that tracks the low-level current until a diverting current is activated, where the diverting current is subtracted from the reference current such that the reference current increases at a slower rate than the low-level current for increasing supply voltages. The gain scaling current mirror-circuit generates the start-up current as a gain scaled version of the reference current. Once the bias generator circuit is active, a stop-current can be used to shut down the gain scaling current mirror-circuit to conserve current.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2006Date of Patent: June 17, 2008Assignee: National Semiconductor CorporationInventor: Perry Scott Lorenz
