Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To automatically switch off an LDMOS transistor by having a zener diode which is biased forward between a supply node and a source node of an LDMOS transistor and providing a 2nd zener diode in place of a charging diode. SOLUTION: A 1st Zener diode Z1 is used in place of a charging diode of a capacity Cp which exists at Vs supply voltage. A 2nd Zener diode Z2 is connected between a source node S of a transistor LD and the supply node Vs. When Zehner voltages VZ1 and VZ2 of the diodes Z1 and Z2 satisfy the condition Vs>VZ1, there holds VTH>VZ1-VZ2, and when Vs Vs+ Vbe-VZ2 holds. VTH is the threshold voltage of the transistor LD, and the difference between the source voltage of the transistor LD and the substrate voltage is equal to VZ2-nVbe.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To surely control a gate voltage so that an LDMOS transistor can not be switched on undesiredly by providing a 2nd inverter provided with an input end, to which a 2nd logical signal is inputted and an output end which is connected to a gate node of the LDMOS transistor. SOLUTION: In a pMOS transistor M1, its source is connected to the cathode of a diode D1 and to a charging terminal of a bootstrap capacitor Cp, also its drain is connected to the drain of an nMOS transistor M2 and to the gate of an LDMOS integrated transistor LD. The source of the transistor M2 is connected to an output node A of a control inverter 101 and to the other terminal of the condenser Cp. Then gates of the transistors M1 and M2 are controlled by a logical signal UVLOb and prevent the transistor LD from being turned on accidentally.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a circuit, capable of more efficiently charging a capacitance without increasing the power consumption for a parasitic transistor. SOLUTION: A circuit that charges a capacitance C with an LDMOS-LD integrated transistor is provided with a switching means SWb controlled by a logical signal UVLO. Hereby, the switching means SWb is made into active state, in order to charge a board node with the current whose maximum value is restricted to the pre-established value during a phase, in which a supply voltage Vs of an integrated circuit is lower than the minimum switch-on voltage of the same integrated circuit.

Abstract: A circuit provides a high-voltage low-drop diode-like conductive path between a DC voltage supply terminal and a bootstrap terminal in charging a supply capacitor for driving a power switch with the capacitor set between the bootstrap terminal and an output terminal alternatively switchable between a low voltage and a high voltage DC voltage. In an embodiment, the circuit includes first and second transistors such as LDMOS depletion transistors with the first transistor set in a cascode arrangement between the bootstrap terminal and the DC voltage supply terminal and the second transistor coupled with a sense comparator for comparing the voltage at the bootstrap terminal with the voltage at said DC voltage supply terminal. The first and second transistors have common control terminals coupled with the DC voltage supply terminal and common coupling terminals to the bootstrap terminal.

Abstract: An electronic synchronous/asynchronous transceiver device for power line communication networks is integrated into a single chip and operates from a single supply voltage. The transceiver device includes: at least an internal register that is programmable through a synchronous serial interface; at least a line driver for a two-way network communication over power lines implemented by a single ended power amplifier with direct accessible input and output lines that is part of a tunable active filter for the transmission path; and at least a couple of linear regulators for powering with different voltage levels different kind of external controllers linked to the transceiver device.

Abstract: The present invention relates primarily to a pulse generator (GEN) having an input (ID) and two outputs (OR,OS) at which to generate respectively a pulse in relation to a edge of a different type at input. The generator provides two distinct logic circuit blocks of the sequential type hence mutually independent for generation of the pulses at the two outputs. In this manner it is possible to easily control the characteristics of the pulses. In addition, if two blocks are connected with appropriate and simple logic networks (G3,G4) it is possible in the generation phase to impose conditions between the pulses at the two outputs in a simple manner and with a certain freedom.
