Load disconnect boost converter

Load disconnect techniques for boost converters. In an example, a power converter includes a driver circuit, a control circuit, and a comparator circuit. During normal boost operation (VIN<VOUT), the comparator circuit disables the control circuit and enables the driver circuit, which in turn fully turns on a high-side switching element during high-side on-phase. In contrast, during start-up operation or an output short-to-ground condition (VIN≥VOUT), the comparator circuit disables the driver circuit and enables the control circuit, which in turn controls the gate voltage of the high-side switching element, so the current through the switching element is regulated, and the switching node voltage is regulated to about a threshold voltage higher than VIN. In this manner, the comparator circuit controls the driver circuit and the control circuit, which in turn allow the boost converter to operate in a normal fashion even when VIN is higher than VOUT.

Asynchronous SAR logic

A circuit for detecting metastability in an asynchronous successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter; wherein the dual output comparator is arranged to receive a first input signal and a second input signal, compare the first input signal with the second input signal, and drive one of the first comparison signal and the second comparison signal to a set state based on the comparison.
