Title:
VOLTAGE REGULATOR OVER-VOLTAGE DETECTION SYSTEM, METHOD AND APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/109681
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Monitoring of a core logic internal voltage regulator output is performed to detect, alarm and put an integrated circuit device into a safe mode when the voltage on the core logic exceeds a safe operating voltage value. This allows putting the integrated circuit devise into a predictable, detectable and safe mode, and to alarm the over-voltage condition to a system monitor to alert on a fault and subsequent fault disposition.
