  • Publication number: 20240120844
    Abstract: A resonant flyback power converter includes: a first and a second transistors which form a half-bridge circuit for switching a transformer and a resonant capacitor to generate an output voltage; a current-sense device for sensing a switching current of the half-bridge circuit to generate a current-sense signal; and a switching control circuit generating a first and a second driving signals for controlling the first and the second transistors. The turn-on of the first driving signal controls the half-bridge circuit to generate a positive current to magnetize the transformer and charge the resonant capacitor. The turn-on of the second driving signal controls the half-bridge circuit to generate a negative current to discharge the resonant capacitor. The switching control circuit turns off the first transistor when the positive current exceeds a positive-over-current threshold, and/or, turns off the second transistor when the negative current exceeds a negative-over-current threshold.

  • Patent number: 11955890
    Abstract: A switching converter circuit for switching one end of an inductor therein between plural voltages according to a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal to convert an input voltage to an output voltage. The switching converter circuit has a driver circuit including a high side driver, a low side driver, a high side sensor circuit, and a low side sensor circuit. The high side sensor circuit is configured to sense a gate-source voltage of a high side metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET), to generate a low side enable signal for enabling the low side driver to switch a low side MOSFET according to the PWM signal. The low side sensor circuit is configured to sense a gate-source voltage of a low side MOSFET, to generate a high side enable signal for enabling the high side driver to switch a high side MOSFET according to the PWM signal.

  • Patent number: 11950042
    Abstract: Disclosed is an earphone system. The earphone system includes a charging box and an earphone, which is detachably assembled in the charging box. The charging box includes a processing module provided with a first identification time period, a power outputting module and a first switch module. During the first identification time period when the earphone is connected to the charging box, the earphone system is in a test mode, and the first switch module is switched for the charging box to transmit power to the earphone through the power outputting module and the first switch module. After the earphone is connected to the charging box for more than the first identification time period, the earphone system is in a communication mode, and the first switch module is switched for the charging box to transmit a data signal to the earphone through the processing module and the first switch module.

  • Patent number: 11609170
    Abstract: A gel-time detection apparatus includes a carrier, a stirring device, and an image-capturing device. The gel-time detection apparatus uses the carrier to liquefied powder to be detected, uses the stirring device to stir the liquefied powder and sense the torque of stirring the liquefied powder, and uses the image-capturing device to capture images of the liquefied powder, so as to determine a gel time according to a determination criterion relevant to the torque and the images. A gel-time detection method includes liquefying powder to be detected, stirring the powder, sensing the torque of stirring the liquefied powder, capturing images of the liquefied powder, and then determining a gel time according to a determination criterion relevant to the torque and the images. The determination criterion may include a torque predetermined threshold and an area-shrinkage-rate predetermined threshold.
