Schutz für integrierte Leistungsausgangsstufen mit multiplen Leistungsdrähten

摘要

The functioning of a simple voltage regulator loop of an integrated power stage employing a plurality of bond-wires is ensured by realizing a conductive path connecting said pads to each other having a resistance lower by at least two orders of magnitude than the resistance of a voltage sensing divider of the regulation loop. Eventual ruptures of any of the bond-wires remain detectable through a final testing of the integrated circuit. $$
