Patents by Inventor CHIO-YI HO

CHIO-YI HO has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9568935
    Abstract: A current detection circuit includes a first detection circuit, a second detection circuit, and a control selection circuit. The first detection circuit electrically connects between an input terminal and an output terminal and outputs a first detection signal. The second detection circuit electrically connects between the input terminal and the output terminal and outputs a second detection signal. The control selection circuit electrically connects the output terminal, the first detection circuit, and the second detection circuit and selects one of the first and second detection signals as a detection signal.

  • Patent number: 9431908
    Abstract: A DC-DC converter includes a zero current detector. The DC-DC converter includes a high-side switch and a low-side switch. When the DC-DC converter works in a discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). The zero current detector detects a zero current a detection node which is arranged between the high-side switch and the low-side switch generates the zero current, the zero current detector outputs the control signal to a driver. The driver switches the high-side switch and the low-side switch off simultaneously according to the control signal.
