    摘要: A hardware random number generator comprises a gas discharge tube, an average voltage generator, and a comparator. The gas discharge tube includes first, second, and third terminals and may generate a variable voltage on the second terminal when a supply voltage is applied to the first and third terminals. The average voltage generator receives the variable voltage from the gas discharge tube and may generate an average voltage equal to a moving average value of the variable voltage over successive periods of time. The comparator receives the variable voltage and the average voltage and may generate a random stream of data bits, such that a value of each bit varies according to the relative magnitudes of the variable voltage and the average voltage.

    摘要: A protection circuit for an LED driver and a DC/DC converter. The LED driver includes a DC/DC converter and a protection circuit. The DC/DC converter is used to convert the input voltage of the DC voltage input terminal into an output voltage, which comprises a high frequency switch and an inductor. The protection circuit comprises a detection module, a trigger module and a locking module. The detection module is coupled to the inductor for detecting the output voltage and outputting the voltage detection signal. The trigger module is used to receive the voltage detection signal and output a voltage trigger signal when the voltage detection signal is a negative voltage and the absolute value of the negative voltage is greater than or equal to the preset value. The locking module is coupled to the trigger module and stops the high frequency switch from operating after receiving the voltage trigger signal.

    摘要: By adding a suppression amount for suppressing an overshoot or undershoot that attenuates with time during an overshoot or undershoot period, the overshoot or undershoot can be suppressed within a short time and the output can be made close to a normal value. When an output has overshot, an overshoot suppression amount including a time-dependent attenuation suppression amount is added to an output feedback control amount, the time-dependent attenuation suppression amount being defined in a period during which the output overshoots. Alternatively, when the output has undershot, an undershoot suppression amount including a time-dependent attenuation suppression amount is added to the output feedback control amount, the time-dependent attenuation suppression amount being defined in a period during which the output undershoots.
