Patent number: 7402986Abstract: The present invention relates to battery power peripheral devices such as MP3 players which are also periodically connected to another power source such as a mains wall socket or USB cable power bus. In particular, but not exclusively, the present invention relates to regulation of these voltage sources. In general terms the present invention provides a multiple supply rail for the load regulators of a power supply circuit for a battery powered device. One supply rail is coupled to the battery, and another is coupled to a non-battery source such as an external mains regulated source and/or a bus power wire from a USB cable or similar. The regulators have multiple inputs, each for taking their input voltage from one of these supply rails.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2005Date of Patent: July 22, 2008Assignee: Wolfson Microelectronics plcInventors: Peter Frith, David Sinai
