| 20100117686 | CURRENT MODE CONTROLLED DC-TO-DC CONVERTER - An apparatus having an input voltage and an output voltage is provided. The apparatus comprises a switch that receives the input voltage and that is adapted to be coupled to a load, a modulator having a timing signal, a compensator that is coupled to the modulator and that includes an amplifier, an overcurrent circuit, and a sampler. The modulator is coupled to the switch and the modulator actuates the switch at a first frequency. The amplifier amplifies the difference between at least a portion of the output voltage with a predetermined reference voltage and outputs an amplified voltage. The overcurrent circuit receives the amplified voltage and outputs an overcurrent signal to the modulator. The sampler is interposed between the amplifier and the overcurrent circuit and is coupled to the modulator, where the sampler samples the amplified voltage prior to each actuation of the switch based on the timing signal and where the sampler outputs the compared voltage that was sampled to the overcurrent circuit through the duration of each actuation of the switch. | 05-13-2010 |

The positive/negative S/H circuit includes an operational amplifier, a first capacitor, a second capacitor being parallel with the first capacitor and forming an integration circuit with the operational amplifier, and several discharge switches correspondingly connecting discharge paths of the first and the second capacitors to control the first and the second capacitors to output a first sampling signal and a second sampling signal respectively, and herein, the first and the second sampling signals has the same magnitude but opposite voltage polarities. | 04-30-2015 |
| 20150137854 | HIGH SPEED SAMPLING FRONT-END CIRCUIT - A high-speed sampling front-end circuit is presented that includes a MDAC sampling network, a reference voltage generator circuit, a comparator array, an operational amplifier, an output short-circuit switch, an adjustable clock duty cycle stabilizer, a status control module and a feedback control module. The circuit features low power, high sampling rate and high input bandwidth of sampling network. The time constant of the MDAC sampling network and the comparator array is precisely matched one another to improve input bandwidth of the sampling network. Sampling capacitors are designed as feedback capacitors and DAC calculation capacitors, thereby the operational amplifier doubles feedback coefficient and features 50% bandwidth and 50% power. The cycle stabilizer is adopted to shorten sampling time and extend amplification phase to greatly improve sampling rate. One input reference voltage tends to simplify the design of the reference voltage generator circuit. The circuit has wide applications in pipelined A/D converters. | 05-21-2015 |
