Abstract: The present application provides method and circuit for monitoring a power supply, which firstly obtains an auxiliary side voltage from a switching power supply and then adopts a divided voltage circuit to obtain a divided voltage from the auxiliary side voltage, for detecting the divided voltage and a detected current flowed in the detection circuit with adopting a first detection circuit and a second detection circuit in an switch circuit to correspondingly generate a first and a second detection signals, which is corresponding to an ambient temperature and an output voltage of the power supply. Hereby, the power supply is monitored.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a carrier chuck having a base plate with a top surface, at least one electrode positioned in a first carrier region of the top surface and configured to produce an electrostatic force to retain a panel placed on the carrier chuck during panel processing, and a dielectric layer positioned over the at least one electrode. The at least one electrode extends from the top surface by a height of at least 20 um.

Abstract: An ESD protection circuit includes a silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) including a first conduction path between a first node and a second node and a clamp circuit coupled to a control terminal of the SCR. The clamp circuit is part of a second conduction path between the first node and the second node. During an ESD event, the clamp circuit conduct an ESD current until a threshold IV point is reached. The clamp circuit triggers the SCR, which then acts as a snapback device to conduct the ESD current at a lower voltage.

Abstract: A device includes a device input, an output connector configured to connect to a current loop, and current loop transmitter circuitry. The current loop transmitter circuitry receives, via the device input, an input from a dry contact switch, and translates a state of the dry contact switch to a current loop current. The current loop transmitter circuitry transmits the current loop current via the output connector through the current loop.
