发明名称 STACKED POWER SUPPLY MONITOR WITH SENSE-REPLICA LOOP
摘要 An apparatus (100, 300, 500, 600) includes a sense module (104, 304, 504, 604) configured to be coupled to at least one power supply (102a-102n, 502a-502n), where the sense module has a first leg. The apparatus also includes a replica module (106, 306, 506, 606) having a second leg, where the first and second legs have a common structure. The apparatus further includes a feedback loop configured to cause an output voltage (VOUT) across terminals of the replica module to at least substantially equal an input voltage (?VIN) across terminals of the sense module based on sense currents in the first and second legs. At least one cascode stage (132a-132d, 532, 632) coupled to the sense module can be configured to reduce a voltage at which one or more signals from the sense module are referenced. One or more trim units (160-162, 560-562) can be used to reduce a gain error and/or an offset error between the input voltage and the output voltage.
