A dual supply voltages converter divides a supply voltage by a constant to produce a feature voltage larger than one when the supply voltage is a first voltage and smaller than 1 when the supply voltage is a second voltage and squares the feature voltage for comparing with itself. After squared, a value larger than one will larger than itself and a value small than 1 will smaller than itself. As a result, the supply voltage is determined to be the first or second voltage and thereby to be converted to the desired output voltage.

Dual supply voltages converter and method

A switching mode N-order circuit comprises a first unit, a second unit and a comparator. The first unit includes an operational amplifier integral circuit to integrate a first voltage. The second unit has one or more stages of subunits in cascade each including an operational amplifier integral circuit to integrate a second voltage stage by stage. Each of the operational amplifier integral circuits is equipped with a switch to be controlled by the comparator to be discharged. The output of the N-order circuit is derived from the output of the second unit.
