Abstract: A power supply control circuit, which is connected to a stabilized direct current power supply having a pair of first and second output terminals and a pair of first and second remote sensing terminals, includes: a current detector configured to detect an output current that is supplied to a load from the stabilized direct current power supply, and to output a current detection voltage; a current difference output unit configured to output a current difference voltage corresponding to a voltage difference between the current detection voltage and a current setting voltage; and a control voltage generator configured to generate a control voltage and output the control voltage to the first remote sensing terminal so as to perform a constant current control operation. The current detector, the current difference output unit and the control voltage generator are operated by only the direct current voltage supplied by the auxiliary power supply.

Abstract: Described herein is a device and method for current flow control for dual battery vehicle architecture. The dual battery vehicle architecture includes a second energy source that is used to support electrical loads, such as radio and navigation systems, during re-cranking in stop-start situations. A quasi-diode device is configured to effectively split a main battery and starter circuit from the rest of the vehicle electrical system including the second energy source. The quasi-diode device includes a plurality of field effect transistors (FET) that conducts current in both directions between the main battery and starter circuit and the rest of the vehicle electrical system when the FETs are turned on and conducts current only from the main battery and starter circuit to the rest of the vehicle electrical system when the FETs are turned off, i.e. when re-cranking is occurring during a start-stop situation.
