INPUT COMMON MODE VOLTAGE COMPENSATION CIRCUIT

摘要

A voltage level shifter for a direct coupling of an external voltage source to a common mode of a circuit may include an amplifier, a voltage-controlled current source, a first and second resistors. A first input of the amplifier may be connected to the common mode. A second input of the amplifier may, via the first and second resistors, receive a voltage indicative of the external voltage source. The output of the amplifier may indicate a voltage difference between the first and second inputs. The voltage-controlled current source may be controlled by the voltage difference to supply a current to a common node of the first and second resistors so that the voltage difference between the first and second inputs may be minimized.
