Abstract: The disclosure concerns a switched-mode power supply comprising a module for charging and discharging an energy store including an electrical transformer. The device provides high configuration flexibility.

Abstract: A switched-mode power supply device including a charger connected on one side to a direct current electrical network, or rectified alternating current electrical network, a power reserve connected to a second side of the charger, and DC-DC output converters delivering regulated output voltages. The output converters are connected by an input to the first side of the charger. The charger is a current bidirectional, voltage unidirectional converter which, in a first phase, enables the power reserve to be recharged and maintained charged from the network, where the output converters are powered by the network and, in a second phase, in the presence of a power brown-out of the network, enables the power reserve to be discharged to power the output converters. A reverse blocking module is connected to the first side of the charger to disconnect the charger and the output converters from the network during the second phase.

Abstract: To produce an insulated current sensor for slaving power devices in the field of avionics, use is made of a magnetic core through which there passes an element traversed by a current to be measured. The magnetic core comprises a secondary winding across the terminals of which are connected an oscillator and a measurement device. The cooperation of the oscillator and of the measurement device makes it possible to circumvent all the traditional drifting of current sensors.

Abstract: A method of managing an electrical power supply outage on board an aircraft, including the following operations: —detection of an electrical power supply outage, —measurement of a duration of the power supply outage by measuring a discharge time of a capacitor and comparing this measured duration with a threshold duration, —saving a long outage indication when the duration of the outage is greater than a threshold duration. The disclosed embodiments also relates to a system implementing this method and including: —a circuit for detecting an electrical power supply outage, —a circuit for measuring a duration of the power supply outage, and—a circuit for managing indications able to manage emissions of signals according to the measured duration of the power supply outage.
