  • Patent number: 9904306
    Abstract: A voltage converter includes a high voltage regulator, a buck converter and a dual input linear regulator unit. The high voltage regulator converts a rectified voltage to a first load voltage. The rectified voltage is rectified from an input voltage. The buck converter generates an output voltage having a first level based on the rectified voltage during a stabilizing period and provides a transition detection signal that is enabled when the output voltage transitions to the first level. The stabilizing period is successive to an initializing period. The dual input linear regulator unit receives the first load voltage, the output voltage and a reference voltage, generates a second load voltage based on the first load voltage during the initializing period, and generates the second load voltage based on the output voltage during the stabilizing period.

  • Patent number: 9590505
    Abstract: A switching regulator includes a DC-DC converter and a dynamic voltage positioning circuit. The DC-DC converter includes an inductor connected between an input port and an output port. The dynamic voltage positioning circuit includes a sensing circuit and a mirroring circuit. The sensing circuit is configured to sense an inductor current flowing through the inductor, and to convert a voltage applied to a direct current resistance (DCR) of the inductor into a droop current using a variable resistor. The mirroring circuit is configured to cause a voltage drop at the output port of the DC-DC converter based on a current corresponding to a difference between a bias current and the droop current.

  • Patent number: 9396870
    Abstract: A wireless power transmission device may comprise a source coil; and/or a resonance coil inductively coupled to the source coil. The source coil may transmit power outside of the wireless power transmission device in an electromagnetic induction type during a first interval. The source coil may transmit the power to the resonance coil in the electromagnetic induction type and the resonance coil may transmit the power received from the source coil to the outside of the wireless power transmission device in a magnetic resonance type during a second interval that is different from the first interval.
