  • Patent number: 11916487
    Abstract: An asymmetric half-bridge converter is provided. The asymmetric half-bridge converter includes a switch circuit, a resonance tank, a current sensor, and a controller. The current sensor senses a waveform of a resonance current flowing through the resonance tank to generate a sensing result. The controller determines the sensing result. When the sensing result indicates that an ending current value of a primary resonance waveform of the resonance current is greater than a predetermined value, the controller performs a first switching operation on the switch circuit. When the sensing result indicates that the ending current value of the primary resonance waveform is less than or equal to the predetermined value, the controller performs a second switching operation on the switch circuit.

  • Publication number: 20190039510
    Abstract: A graphic luminous device includes a lamp holder, a light source disposed at one side of the lamp holder, a light-guiding board disposed on the lamp holder receiving a light from the light source to guide upward, a diffusion film disposed on the light-guiding board, a shielding board and an outer housing. The diffusion film is used to uniform the light from the light-guiding board. The present disclosure utilizes the opaque second graphic segment on the outer housing and the light-penetrable first graphic segment on the shielding board to be overlapped to produce a contour luminous effect. The second graphic segment is smaller than the first graphic segment, and the second graphic segment is matched with the first graphic segment. In another way, the shielding board is formed with the first graphic segment and the second graphic segment, to produce a contour light-penetrable effect.

  • Patent number: 9203310
    Abstract: A single-inductor multi-output (SIMO) conversion device for enlarging load range is disclosed. The SIMO conversion device comprises a power stage comprising a first switch and a second switch and receiving a direct-current (DC) current. A DC voltage source inputs the DC current to an inductor by timing of the first and second switches. Each control output circuit has a third switch connected with the inductor in series to receive an immediate current. The control output circuit sends out an output voltage selectively by the third switch. A control stage circuit receives a plurality of feedback voltage signals and selectively controls the order of adjusting energy of the output voltages by order control signals. The present invention uses a current sensing circuit to obtain the immediate current and switches control signals to establish the best order thereof according to different loads.

  • Patent number: 8981752
    Abstract: An energy-based oriented switching mode power supply includes a bi-directional converter having an energy input and a load output, and an energy based pulsed generator connected between the energy input and the load output for outputting a gate voltage signal controlling how much energy is supplied from the energy input. The energy based pulsed generator receives a clock signal and outputs the gate voltage signal according to the load output of the bi-directional converter when the clock signal is at a high level. Accordingly, the switching mode power supply achieves a hybrid of PWM and PFM, depending on the energy demand of the load output, for a fast transient response and a small voltage ripple whilst improving power efficiency over a wide load range.
