Abstract

See full text

One example includes a voltage clamp circuit. The voltage clamp circuit includes a comparator loop circuit. The comparator loop circuit includes a comparator configured to compare an input voltage provided at an input node with a clamping voltage. The comparator loop circuit also includes a transistor network interconnecting a voltage rail and the input node. The comparator can be configured to activate the transistor network to set the input voltage to be approximately equal to the clamping voltage in response to the input voltage exceeding the corresponding clamping voltage.
