  • Patent number: 9742220
    Abstract: An auxiliary power supply device can include an auxiliary power source configured to provide auxiliary power. An auxiliary power state detection circuit electrically can be coupled to an input or an output of the auxiliary power source and an auxiliary power supply circuit that can be electrically coupled to the output of the auxiliary power source, where the auxiliary power supply circuit can be configured to provide the auxiliary power to a target system when power supplied to the target system by a main power source is abnormal. Related systems are also disclosed.
