    Abstract: A power converter includes a first load terminal used to supply a current to a load and a second load terminal used to return a feedback voltage based on the current. A calibration circuit supplies a calibrated voltage processed from the feedback voltage, and a hysteretic comparator controls a current level of the current based on a difference between the feedback voltage and the calibrated voltage.

    Abstract: A comparator has a first terminal, a second terminal, and an output terminal. A selection circuit is coupled to the first terminal. A calibration circuit is coupled to the output terminal and the second terminal. The comparator is configured to operate in a first mode when the selection circuit provides a first input signal to the first terminal and the calibration circuit provides a second input signal to the second terminal. The comparator is configured to operate in a second mode when the selection circuit provides a first calibration signal to the first terminal and the calibration circuit provides a second calibration signal to the second terminal based on an output signal at the output terminal. The comparator generates the output signal based on the first calibration signal and the second calibration signal.

    Abstract: A circuit comprises a first circuit and a second circuit. The first circuit is configured to operate at a first-circuit supply voltage value, and to generate a first reference voltage value based on a voltage rated for transistors in a second circuit. The second circuit is configured to operate at a second-circuit supply voltage value, to receive a first signal and the first reference voltage value, and to clamp an input node of the second circuit based on the first reference voltage value. The second-circuit supply voltage value is less than the first-circuit supply voltage value. The first signal is configured to swing between a low voltage value and a voltage value higher than the second-circuit supply voltage value.

    Abstract: In a thermal sensor. a capacitor voltage of a capacitor is compared with a reference voltage, and an output voltage is generated based on the comparison. The output voltage has a pulse density indicative of a temperature detected by the thermal sensor. The capacitor is charged or discharged using at least one of a first current signal or a second current signal based on a logic level of the output voltage. The first current signal is a temperature-independent signal, and the second current signal is a temperature-dependent signal dependent on the temperature detected by the thermal sensor. In some embodiments, a clock rate of a clock signal is varied in accordance with the detected temperature to control a timing operation for supplying the first current signal to the capacitor and/or the reference voltage is varied in accordance with the detected temperature.
