  • RELAXATION OSCILLATOR HAVING A SUPPLY VOLTAGE INDEPENDENT OUTPUT FREQUENCY
    Publication number: 20120194279
    Abstract: Techniques and architectures corresponding to relaxation oscillators having output frequencies that are supply voltage independent are described. In a particular embodiment, an apparatus includes a relaxation oscillator having one or more capacitors and a compensation current circuit coupled to the relaxation oscillator. The compensation current circuit is configured to regulate current provided to the one or more capacitors of the relaxation oscillator in response to changes in a supply voltage provided to the compensation current circuit and to the relaxation oscillator.

  • LDO with distributed output device
    Patent number: 8217635
    Abstract: In one implementation, an apparatus includes a first input terminal configured to receive a bias voltage, the bias voltage received from a low-dropout voltage regulator (LDO) error amplifier, and a second input terminal configured to receive a supply voltage; a first output terminal configured to supply a feedback voltage, the feedback voltage supplied to the LDO error amplifier, and a second output terminal configured to supply regulated power to an associated load; a regulating portion configured to regulate power supplied to the associated load; and a switching portion configured to enable or disable the load from receiving the regulated power.
