Patents by Inventor How-Wei WU

How-Wei WU 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: 9467134
    Abstract: A PWM control unit is provided. A comparison unit compares an output voltage with a reference voltage to generate a first compared result, and controls a voltage of a first node. A constant current source is coupled to the first node. A storage module is coupled to the first node and receives a ground voltage. A first comparator compares the output voltage with the voltage of the first node to generate a turn-on signal. A second comparator compares the voltage of the first node with the input voltage to generate an output signal. A logic gate generates a turn-off signal according to the turn-on and output signals. When each of the turn-on and output signals is at a first level, a logic gate asserts the turn-off signal at a second level. The PWM generator combines the turn-on and turn-off signals to generate a PWM signal.
