  • Assessment of powering modes for DC-powered devices
    Patent number: 10935610
    Abstract: A power-input stage (102) for a DC-powered device (100), the power-input stage including at least four pairs of power-input elements (104) for connecting to four pairs of external electrical conductors (106) for delivering DC power, and a powering-mode assessment unit (108) having a balance measurement stage (110) that is configured to perform a balance measurement for determining whether or not a first number of pairs of power-input elements, at which a positive power-supply voltage is available from the external electrical conductors, is equal to a second number of pairs of power-input elements, from which a negative power-supply voltage is available, and to provide a balance output signal indicative of a result of the balance measurement.
