Abstract
A single configuration terminal of a device is used to configure multiple operating parameters of the device based on a resistor and a capacitor selectively connected to the configuration terminal. The device includes a detection circuit configured to monitor a voltage signal at the configuration terminal to determine multiple values in response to a regulated current source providing a current to the configuration terminal selectively connected to the resistor and the capacitor in parallel, and configure multiple operating parameters based on the determined values. A method for configuring operating parameters using a single configuration terminal of a device includes providing a current to the configuration terminal selectively connected to a resistor and a capacitor in parallel, monitoring a voltage signal at the configuration terminal, determining multiple values based on the monitoring, and configuring multiple operating parameter based on the determined values.
