  • Patent number: 11799470
    Abstract: An integrated circuit can comprise an output terminal, a power transistor having a first current electrode coupled to the output terminal and a second current electrode coupled to a power supply terminal, a driver having an output coupled to a control electrode of the power switch, a capacitor having a first terminal coupled to the output terminal and a second terminal coupled to a circuit node, a first low pass filter coupled between the circuit node and an input of the driver, the first low pass filter having a first cut off frequency, a set of current sources, and a second low pass filter coupled between the circuit node and an output of the set of current sources. The second low pass filter can have a second cut off frequency that is higher than the first cut off frequency.

  • Patent number: 11509326
    Abstract: A sigma-delta ADC comprising: a first-input-terminal configured to receive a first-high-voltage-analogue-input-signal; a second-input-terminal configured to receive a second-high-voltage-analogue-input-signal; an output-terminal configured to provide an output-digital-signal, wherein the output-digital-signal is representative of the difference between the first-high-voltage-analogue-input-signal and the second-high-voltage-analogue-input-signal. The sigma-delta ADC also includes a feedback-current-block, which comprises: a first-feedback-transistor having a conduction channel; a second-feedback-transistor having a conduction channel; a first-feedback-switch; a second-feedback-switch; a first-feedback-current-source; and a second-feedback-current-source.
