  • Publication number: 20250038502
    Abstract: An electric junction box is equipped with a special simplified power supply. An internal circuit of the electric junction box supplies the output of the simplified power supply as an operating voltage of a DC/DC converter to start the DC/DC converter when battery exhaustion occurs in the low voltage battery. When the DC/DC converter is started, high voltage power stored in a high voltage battery on the vehicle can be stepped down and supplied to a circuit on the low voltage battery, thereby enabling normal starting operations such as starting an engine. An emergency start mode can be selected by a switch operation of a user or by automatic detection of a drop in power supply voltage.

  • Patent number: 12205801
    Abstract: In a plasma processing apparatus, a controller specifies a time point when a current starts to flow between an edge ring and a DC power supply after beginning an application of a negative DC voltage to the edge ring from the DC power supply. The controller specifies, from a voltage measurement value indicating a voltage of the edge ring at the time point, an estimate of a self-bias voltage of the edge ring generated by a supply of a radio frequency power. The controller sets a sum of an absolute value of the estimate of the self-bias voltage and a set value as an absolute value of the negative DC voltage to be applied to the edge ring by the DC power supply.
