  • Patent number: 11978399
    Abstract: A pixel drive circuit, a display panel and a display device. In the pixel drive circuit, a voltage-stabilization transistor is arranged, and the voltage-stabilization transistor is provided with two control ends, each of the two control ends forms a voltage-stabilization capacitor with the active layer, thereby a new capacitor is added on the basis of the original parasitic capacitor. The new capacitor has a relatively large capacitance value. The potential variation at the control end of the drive transistor depends on the parasitic capacitor of the drive transistor, the storage capacitor at the control end of the drive transistor, and the capacitance value of the new capacitor, when the capacitive coupling effect occurs, the voltage at the control end of the drive transistor can be jointly maintained by the above three capacitors, thereby improving the effect of voltage stabilization.

  • Publication number: 20240145186
    Abstract: A dual conductor Thomson coil actuator for use in opening the separable contacts of a circuit interrupter comprises two nested conductors wound to form a single coil, rather than the traditional design comprising one single conductor wound to form a coil of the same size. Each of the two conductors can be excited by half the capacitance that would be used to excite the traditional single conductor coil, using the same voltage as the single conductor coil. When the same total capacitor-stored energy that would be used to excite the single conductor coil is instead used to excite the dual conductor coil, the initial pulse of aggregate current through the dual conductor coil is greater than the initial pulse of current through the single conductor coil, resulting in a faster initial opening distance of the separable contacts during an opening stroke.

  • Publication number: 20240128737
    Abstract: A system and method are provided for protecting semiconductor components from thermal failure in an electronic circuit interrupter. The electronic trip unit (ETU) is configured to determine what range of current the detected current signal corresponds to, out of several ranges categorized as being either non-fault/normal, non-severe fault, and severe fault. The ETU then selects a mode of operation in which to operate based on the determined range of current. In modes of operation corresponding to a fault condition, the ETU monitors certain characteristics of the current such as magnitude and/or rate of rise, and if the aforementioned current characteristics exceed a specified threshold for a minimum interval of time, the ETU will trip the electronic interrupter. If, however, the aforementioned current characteristics fall below the specified threshold prior to the minimum interval of time elapsing, the ETU will not trip the electronic interrupter.
