  • Patent number: 11618689
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to mineral processing, and more particularly to a copper(II)-ammonia complex ion sulfidization activator, and its preparation and application. A molar ratio of NH3 to Cu2+ in the active ingredient of the copper(II)-ammonia complex ion sulfidization activator is 2:1-4:1. The preparation method includes: dropwise adding an ammonia solution to a copper salt solution; and adjusting the mixture to pH 6-7.2 with dilute sulfuric acid to obtain the copper(II)-ammonia complex ion sulfidization activator. During the sulfidization flotation for the copper oxide ore, the copper(II)-ammonia complex ion sulfidization activator is added and mixed uniformly with the ore slurry prior to the introduction of the sulfidizing agent.

  • Patent number: 11621646
    Abstract: A flyback converter is provided that dynamically adjusts a drain threshold voltage for a current cycle of a synchronous rectifier switch transistor based upon operating conditions in a previous cycle of the synchronous rectifier switch transistor. A differential amplifier drives a gate voltage of the synchronous rectifier switch transistor during an on-time of the current cycle so that a drain voltage of the synchronous rectifier switch transistor equals the drain threshold voltage during a regulated portion of the current cycle.

  • Patent number: 11139745
    Abstract: A flyback converter is disclosed that times a detection time for each cycle of a power switch transistor. The detection time ends when a sense resistor voltage exceeds a threshold voltage. Over a half cycle of an AC input voltage to the flyback converter measures a series of detection time and determines a minimum detection time from the series of detection times. If the minimum detection time exceeds a brownout delay, a brownout condition exists. If the minimum detection time is less than an overvoltage delay, an overvoltage condition exists.

  • Patent number: 9774261
    Abstract: A power converter system comprises a switching power converter having a primary side and a secondary side that are electrically isolated from each other. A first controller on the primary side of the switching power converter controls a switch in the switching power converter on or off at a switching frequency of the switching power converter to regulate an output voltage of the switching power converter. A second controller on the secondary side of the switching power converter encodes information into one or more pulses such that a first duration between the consecutive pulses corresponds to a first logic level and a second duration between the consecutive pulses corresponds to a second logic level, the second duration being greater than the first duration.
