Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a current sense circuit having an input, an output, and a correction current input terminal between the input and output. A first transistor has a first control input and a first terminal. The first terminal is coupled to the input of the current sense circuit. A second transistor has a second control input and a second terminal. The second control input is coupled to the first control input, and the second terminal is coupled to the correction current input terminal.

Abstract: A device includes a heating element to generate heat for a die and maintain its temperature. The device includes a Buried Zener (BZ) diode positioned at a first distance from the heating element and a sensing element positioned at a second distance to the BZ diode to sense a temperature of the die at the second distance from the BZ diode for controlling the heat. A distance between a position of the BZ diode and a position of the sensing element is less than a given threshold. Transistors coupled to the BZ diode output a reference voltage with an offset voltage. The transistors are positioned at a third distance (greater than the first distance) from the heating element thereby positioning the BZ diode between the heating element and the transistors. A voltage compensating unit is positioned between the BZ diode and the heating element to reduce the offset voltage.

Abstract: A gate driver includes a gate current circuit and a driver logic circuit. The gate current circuit has a gate current circuit output and includes first and second current sources coupled to the gate current circuit output. The driver logic circuit has a capacitor and is configured to: charge and discharge the capacitor to generate a detect voltage across the capacitor; cause the first current from the first current source to flow to the gate current circuit output in response to a voltage on the gate current circuit output being below the detect voltage; and cause the second current from the second current source to flow to the gate current circuit output in response to the voltage on the gate current circuit output being above the detect voltage.
