  • Publication number: 20070223260
    Abstract: A power supply device (1) converting received power signals to direct current signals to ensure a load to work normally. The power supply device includes a transformer circuit (10), a rectifier circuit (11), and an inrush current control circuit (12). The transformer circuit converts the received power signals to alternating current signals. The rectifier circuit is connected to the transformer circuit, and converts the alternating current signals to direct current signals. The inrush current control circuit is connected to the rectifier circuit, for limiting inrush current from the power supply device. The inrush current control circuit includes a voltage divider resistor (R1) and a filter capacitor (C1). The filter capacitor is connected to the voltage divider resistor in series. In the invention, the power supply device uses the inrush current control circuit to limit the inrush current, thus life of the components is lengthened, and the power supply device is stable.

  • Patent number: 6114193
    Abstract: A method for preventing the snap down effect in a power rectifier with higher breakdown voltage comprises the step of forming an isolation layer between the semiconductor substrate and the epitaxy layer. The isolation layer can prevent the dislocation occurred upon the semiconductor substrate from influencing the p-n junction atop. Therefore, the power rectifier manufactured by the method of the present invention can work under a higher breakdown voltage exceeding 450 V with reduced cost.
