In the operational amplifier design, the conversion rate means the reaction capability of the fast transient voltage, and when the temperature protection hysteresis exists for the over-temperature protection circuit, if the sensitivity of the circuit to voltage change can be improved, the reaction capability of the circuit to the voltage change is enhanced, and the loss of power consumption can be reduced.
