Abstract: An abnormal connection detection method is used between a power supplier and a power receiver. The power supplier and the power receiver are connected through a cable. The cable includes positive and negative power transmission lines. The abnormal connection detection method includes: providing an output voltage from the power supplier, wherein the output voltage is lower than a predetermined voltage threshold; detecting, according to the output voltage, whether an output current generated by the power supplier is higher than a predetermined current threshold; and when the output current is higher than the predetermined current threshold, determining that an abnormal connection occurs between the power supplier and the power receiver.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a trench Schottky barrier diode (SBD) and a manufacturing method thereof. The trench SBD includes: an epitaxial layer, formed on a substrate; multiple mesas, defined by multiple trenches; a field plate, formed on the epitaxial layer and filled in the multiple trenches, wherein a Schottky contact is formed between the field plate and top surfaces of the mesas; a termination region, formed outside the multiple mesas and electrically connected to the field plate; a field isolation layer, formed on the upper surface and located outside the termination region; and at least one mitigation electrode, formed below the upper surface outside the termination region, and is electrically connected to the field plate through the field isolation layer, wherein the mitigation electrode and the termination region are separated by part of a dielectric layer and part of the epitaxial layer.
Abstract: The present invention discloses an adaptive constant ON time adjustment circuit, which generates a square wave signal having a constant normal ON time during normal operation, for controlling a power stage circuit to convert an input voltage to an output voltage. When the output voltage is shifted from low to high, during the transient period, the ON time is adjusted longer; and when the output voltage is shifted from high to low, during the transient period, the ON time is adjusted shorter.
