  • Patent number: 8766617
    Abstract: An exemplary method for improving voltage identification (VID) transient response is adapted to a voltage regulator and includes steps of: continuously sensing an inductor current of the voltage regulator to thereby output a current sense signal; during a steady state operation period, sampling the current sense signal to thereby obtain a sampling result for providing a droop control signal; after entering a VID transient period from the steady state operation period, holding the sampling result for providing the droop control signal; and taking the droop control signal as a consideration factor of producing a pulse width modulation signal to regulate an output voltage of the voltage regulator.

  • Patent number: 8508206
    Abstract: The present invention discloses an adaptive constant ON time adjustment circuit, which generates a square wave signal having a constant normal ON time during normal operation, for controlling a power stage circuit to convert an input voltage to an output voltage. When the output voltage is shifted from low to high, during the transient period, the ON time is adjusted longer; and when the output voltage is shifted from high to low, during the transient period, the ON time is adjusted shorter.

  • Patent number: 8502515
    Abstract: A multiphase DC-DC converting circuit for providing power to a load is disclosed, having power stage circuits, channel current converting circuits, current detecting circuits, a transconductance amplifier circuit, a comparator circuit, and a channel current balance circuit. The current detecting circuits detect current signals of current channels, and the transconductance amplifier circuit and the comparator circuit are coupled with the current detecting circuits to receive the voltage difference across a resistor, and to generate a total current detecting signal provided to the load. The channel current converting circuit is coupled with the current detecting circuits to generate channel current detecting signals. The channel current balance circuit is coupled with the comparator circuit, the transconductance amplifier circuit and the channel current converting circuit to balance the current signals of the current channels.

  • Patent number: 8193794
    Abstract: A voltage regulator includes an adjuster to provide an adjust signal according to its load current to adjust at least one of the feedback signal, the reference signal, the error signal, and the ripple signal of the voltage regulator, to automatically adjust the output voltage. The output voltage increases when the load current increases, and decreases when the load current decreases. Preferably, a CCR voltage regulator according to the present invention will have its PWM frequency varying with its output voltage and thus have better transient performance.

  • Patent number: 8108961
    Abstract: A broom assembly includes a head structure and a rod structure. The head structure includes a base having a coupling face formed with a reception chamber and an opening for access into the reception chamber, and a plurality of resilient ribs provided at the periphery confining the opening and extending inwardly and radially toward a center axis of the opening. The rod structure includes a coupling member provided partially, rotatably and detachably within the reception chamber in the coupling face of the base. When the coupling member is detachably received within the reception chamber, the coupling member biases against and engages the resilient ribs so as to be prevented untimely disengaging from the base.
