Patent number: 12095304Abstract: A power supply circuit and a power distribution method thereof are provided. The power supply circuit includes a power input switch block, a power supply measurement block, a power supply conversion block and a power supply control block. The power input switch block provides a first power supply voltage to a load circuit based on an external power supply voltage from an adapter. The power supply measurement block measures a current of the first power supply voltage. The power supply conversion block is coupled to the battery module to provide a second power supply voltage to the load circuit. When a battery temperature of the battery module is higher than a critical temperature and a battery power of the battery module is higher than or equal to a critical power, the power supply control block limits the second power supply voltage provided to the load circuit.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 2021Date of Patent: September 17, 2024Assignee: PEGATRON CORPORATIONInventors: Yi-Hsuan Lee, Liang-Cheng Kuo, Chun-Wei Ko, Ya Ju Cheng, Chih Wei Huang, Ywh Woei Yeh, Yu Cheng Lin, Yen Ting Wang
