  • Patent number: 10340914
    Abstract: A power converting device and a method thereof are provided. The power converting device includes a filter circuit, a zero-crossing comparison circuit, a counting circuit, a logic circuit, an oscillation circuit, and a control circuit. The zero-crossing comparison circuit outputs a zero-crossing signal when an inductor current is equal to a zero current. The counting circuit counts a time interval between two consecutive time points at which the inductor currents are equal to the zero current in a low power mode. When the logic circuit determines that the time interval is greater than a first time threshold, the control circuit transmits a first oscillating signal to the filter circuit from the oscillation circuit; otherwise, it outputs a second oscillating signal; it outputs a pulse-skipping mode signal when the interval time is less than a second time threshold.

  • Patent number: 10274990
    Abstract: A phase adjusting device provided includes a main delay circuit, a first converter, a second converter, a first buck circuit, and a second buck circuit. The main delay circuit receives an input clock signal to generate a main delay signal. The first converter receives the input clock signal to generate a first conversion signal. The second converter is coupled to the main delay circuit to receive the main delay signal and generate a second conversion signal. The first buck circuit is coupled to the first converter to receive the first conversion signal and generate a first buck voltage. The second buck circuit is coupled to the second converter to receive the second conversion signal and generate a second buck voltage. A first phase difference is formed between the main delay signal and the input clock signal.

  • Patent number: 9966852
    Abstract: A dual voltage output device includes a charging circuit and a control circuit. The charging circuit includes a first switch, a second switch, a third switch, a fourth switch, a fifth switch, a sixth switch, an inductor, a first capacitor and a second capacitor. The control circuit controls the first switch, the second switch, the third switch, the fourth switch, the fifth switch and the sixth switch so that a DC voltage source charges the inductor and the inductor charges the first capacitor and the second capacitor individually or together. Therefore, the capacitor provides a first voltage, and the second capacitor provides a second voltage.

  • Publication number: 20140130171
    Abstract: A method of processing application security for uses in a platform-as-a-service layer (PAAS layer) includes steps as follows. First, an application program is scanned to find out a vulnerable code segment. Then, when the vulnerable code segment isn't fixed through a security process, a secure code segment is weaved into this unfixed vulnerable code segment, so as to ensure the security of the application program. Moreover, a system of processing application security is also disclosed in specification.

  • Patent number: 8159838
    Abstract: A flyback converter system prevents a primary side switch and a secondary side switch from being turned on simultaneously through a controller. The controller includes a turning on switch module, a turning off switch module, and an enabling switch module. The turning on switch module is for turning on the secondary side switch. The turning off switch module switches off the secondary side switch according to the impedance of a load and the switch cycle of the secondary side switch. The enabling switch module enables the secondary side switch according to the impedance of the load.

  • Patent number: 7779310
    Abstract: A system for detecting a work status of a computer system is provided. The system includes a super input/output (Super I/O) chipset, a complex programmable logic device (CPLD), a South Bridge chipset and a device driver. The device driver is configured for driving the Super I/O chipset to generate and send a start signal to the CPLD, and is further configured for driving the Super I/O chipset to periodically generate and send a test signal to the CPLD. The CPLD is configured for receiving the start signal and triggering a clock to start timing from an initial time, monitoring whether a predetermined amount of test signals have been received in a predetermined time, and is further configured for sending a reboot signal to the South Bridge chipset when the predetermined amount of test signals have not been received in the predetermined time. The South Bridge chipset is configured for rebooting the computer system when receiving the reboot signal. A related method is also provided.

  • Patent number: 4450418
    Abstract: A high frequency stripline-type power divider/combiner comprising a patterned metal layer having an input and two output strips, a dielectric substrate, and a resistive material layer interposed between the metal layer and substrate. A portion of the resistive material layer defines a resistive bridge that extends between and resistively interconnects the output strips, thereby acting as a resistive load for the cancellation of reflected power output signals. The patterned metal layer and resistive bridge are concurrently defined by standard photolithographic and etching techniques, thereby allowing the simple and accurate fabrication of an integral power divider/combiner.
