Abstract:
A driver circuit for use in a controller includes a signal generator coupled to generate a first control signal, a second control, and a third control signal in response to a drive signal that is coupled to control switching of a selection switch that is coupled to the driver circuit and referenced to an output voltage that is greater than a ground reference voltage. A first switch is coupled to selectively couple a first voltage to a first terminal of the controller in response to the first control signal. A second switch is coupled to selectively couple a second voltage to a second terminal of the controller in response to the second control signal. A third switch is coupled to selectively couple the second terminal of the controller to a third terminal of the controller in response to the third control signal.
