NSN Detection in Primary-side-controlled AC-DC Converter
An AC-DC converter and method of operating the same is provided to sense negative voltage (NSN) on a synchronous rectifier (SR_DRAIN) on a secondary-side of the converter. The SR_DRAIN voltage is sensed and a first integration signal (volt-sec) generated based on a time and voltage for which the SR_DRAIN voltage is greater than a bus voltage (VBUS_IN) output from the secondary. When Volt-sec is greater than a reference voltage a volt-sec based NSN detect signal is generated. A second integration signal (integ_resetb) is generated based on the time for which the SR_DRAIN voltage is greater than VBUS_IN. A pulse width of integ_resetb is determined using a counter, and, when it exceeds a reference by a predetermined percentage, a counter-expiry signal is generated. The volt-sec based NSN detect signal and the counter-expiry signal are logically combined to generate a real NSN detect signal when one or both are present.

In an example of the techniques presented herein, a system comprises a first input terminal and a first programmable analog block configured according to a first configuration. A controller is configured to reconfigure the first programmable analog block according to a second configuration different than the first configuration based on a first signal received at the first input terminal.
A multi-protocol network and methods for operating the same are provided. The method begins with establishing a wireless-connection between a first transceiver in a first device and a second-transceiver in a second device using a wireless-protocol. First, wired-protocol packets and non-packet data are received and converted in the first device to second-packets compatible with the wireless-protocol by inserting synchronization-bits non-packet data in a preamble. This is initiated by sensing arrival of the preamble without waiting for a start of data. The second-packets are transmitted from the first transceiver to the second, and converted to third-packets compatible with the wired-protocol by removing the synchronization-bits. Latency is improved by initiating/starting a packet to the wired controller before a data portion of the packet is received. The number of synchronization bits is selected so the second-packets are aligned and synchronized with wireless-protocol packets.
