Abstract: An alkali-metal vapor cell atomic clock system, including a first atomic vapor cell and a second atomic vapor cell. A digital signal processor outputs a first time sequence to control a first laser signal, and the digital signal processor outputs a second time sequence to control a second laser signal. Thereby, the first atomic vapor cell and the second atomic vapor cell can alternately lock a crystal oscillator. A Dick effect is reduced by alternately locking the crystal oscillator, which enables the alkali-metal vapor cell atomic clock system to have more stable frequency output. Because the crystal oscillator has low costs, the alkali-metal vapor cell atomic clock system has advantages of low costs and high stability.

Abstract: An adaptive control method for zero voltage switching belongs to the field of integrated circuit. In the present invention, the difference between the turn-on time of the power tube and the time of the lowest drain voltage of the power tube in the switching cycle is quantified by the reversible counter, and the quantized result is transmitted to the next switching cycle to adjust the turn-on time of the power tube through the final count result of the reversible counter, so that the power tube after being adjusted can be turned on when the drain voltage of the power tube is the lowest, thus reducing the switching loss. The present invention can adaptively turn on the power tube when the drain voltage of the power tube reaches minimum, thus, realizing the zero-voltage switching, reducing the switching loss of the switching power supply, widening the application range.
