Combined Sense Signal Generation and Detection

Abstract

In an exemplary implementation, a detection circuit for regulating a power converter is configured to receive a combined sense signal comprising a first sense signal from the power converter superimposed with a second sense signal from the power converter. The detection circuit is further configured to generate a first detect signal from the combined sense signal and generate a second detect signal from the combined sense signal. The first detect signal can correspond to the first sense signal and the second detect signal can correspond to the second sense signal. The detection circuit can generate a filtered signal corresponding to the first sense signal from the combined sense signal to generate the first detect signal from the combined sense signal. Also, the detection circuit can generate an offset signal based on the combined sense signal to generate the second detect signal from the combined sense signal.
