  • Publication number: 20170317577
    Abstract: A control circuit for a switch mode power supply (SMPS) includes a power switch for coupling to a primary winding of the power supply and a startup resistor coupled to an external input voltage and to a control terminal of the power switch. The control circuit also includes a controller. During startup, the controller is configured to cause the power switch to amplify a startup current from an external input voltage through the startup resistor and provide a startup power to the controller. During normal operation, the controller is configured to provide a power switch control signal to turn on and off the power switch for controlling a current flow in the primary winding and regulating an output of the power supply. The controller is configured to provide a current signal for driving an NPN power switch and to provide a voltage signal for driving an NMOS power switch.

  • Publication number: 20170315982
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides method, device and mobile terminal for webpage text parsing. The method includes: after a webpage element is parsed into a common JavaScript script, loading the common JavaScript script, and simultaneously constructing a DOM tree node corresponding to the common JavaScript script. The common JavaScript script is executed, after loading of the common JavaScript script is completed; and the next webpage element may then be parsed, after construction of the DOM tree node corresponding to the common JavaScript script is completed. While loading and executing the common JavaScript script, construction of the DOM tree node corresponding to the common JavaScript script and parsing of the next webpage element are still continued to accelerate webpage text processing. This reduces the time of parsing, loading, rendering, and displaying the whole webpage, and also allows the elements after the common JavaScript script element to be rendered and displayed in advance.
