  • Patent number: 11211903
    Abstract: An over charge protection method applied to a voltage converter which can operate in a quaternary modulation mode (Q mode) or a ternary modulation mode (T mode). The over charge protection method comprises: (a) determining whether the voltage converter operates in the Q mode or the T mode; and (b) setting a current threshold of the voltage converter to a first over current threshold if the voltage converter operates in the T mode; and (c) setting the current threshold to a second over current threshold if the voltage converter operates in the Q mode, wherein the first current threshold is smaller than the second over current threshold.

  • Patent number: 10958259
    Abstract: A pulse width modulation output stage incorporates a half bridge output stage, a gate control circuit, a detection circuit, and a control logic. The half bridge output stage has a first transistor and a second transistor connected in series between a power supply node and a ground node. The gate control circuit outputs a pulse width modulation signal to drive the first transistor and the second transistor. The detection circuit detects whether or not a glitch occurs in one of the gate voltages of the first and second transistor so as to generate a control code. The logic circuit varies the delay time of the pulse width modulation signal based on the control code.
