Methods and circuitry for driving a device

Abstract:

Methods and circuitry for driving a device are disclosed. An example of the circuitry includes a voltage sensing circuit coupled to an input of a transistor, the voltage sensing circuit having a first output at a node, the voltage sensing circuit comprising a capacitive voltage divider, and a current sensing circuit coupled to the input of the transistor and to the voltage sensing circuit, the current sensing circuit having a second output, the current sensing circuit comprising a resistive divider coupled to the input of the transistor.
