  • Control system for a power supply
    Patent number: 5847950
    Abstract: A power supply having a control system for permitting intelligent operation. The power supply: (i) is convenient, safe, and easy to program; (ii) is provided with a graceful shutdown in which output filter capacitor(s) are rapidly discharged while minimizing wasted energy; (iii) tracks and optimizes scheduled maintenance; (iv) permits two-way communication between the power supply and its controller; and/or (v) permits intelligent reconfiguration of a group of connected power supplies when one or more fails.

  • Power converter having a configurable output stage
    Patent number: 5742490
    Abstract: Flexible power converters in which many different output power configurations (i.e., different output voltages and currents) may be realized. In particular, a flexible power converter having an output stage configurable as a full bridge having series or parallel secondary windings, a current doubler having series or parallel secondary windings, or a voltage doubler having series or parallel secondary windings.

  • Bias power having a gapped transformer component
    Patent number: 5663873
    Abstract: A half bridge power converter which employs a gapped transformer which permits stable asymmetrical operation without the use of a separate choke arranged in parallel with the primary of the transformer. The half bridge power convert may include a small capacitor on its secondary side to cause a high ripple of the output current thereby permitting stable asymmetrical operation with smaller magnetizing currents.
