  • Publication number: 20210211058
    Abstract: An active clamp switching power converter circuit includes a primary-side sensing circuit that generates a sensed voltage based on an auxiliary winding voltage of an auxiliary winding around the core having a same polarity as the primary winding. Based on the sensed voltage, a controller controls switching of a power switch coupled to the primary winding to control current through the primary winding and controls switching of an active clamp switch to control leakage current when the power switch is turned off. The controller regulates timing of the switching to turn on the power switch based on timing of a zero voltage switching condition for power efficient operation.

    Abstract: A circuit provides for regulating charge and discharge current of a battery. A bypass circuit is connected to a terminal of the battery and connected in parallel with a load switch. The bypass circuit may selectively direct a bypass current around the load switch. A controller can operate in plural modes to control the bypass circuit. In a first mode, the controller controls one or more parameters of the bypass current based on values corresponding to a current at the terminal, a voltage at the terminal, and/or a temperature of the battery. In a second mode, the controller controls the bypass circuit to disable the bypass current.

  • Publication number: 20180054863
    Abstract: A solid state lighting driver circuit containing an input for connection with a ballast; an output for driving a light emitting element; and a switch is provided. The switch is selectively operable to transition between a first state providing a low impedance path for a ballast output and a second state where the ballast output drives the output. A solid state lighting driver circuit has a switch connected across its input that selectively drives the circuit with a ballast output, or provides a low impedance path for the ballast output so that the ballast goes into self-protection mode. This means that the driver circuit is compatible with an electronic ballast but is well regulated. Also, a method controlling a solid state lamp for selectively driving a load with a ballast or providing a low impedance path for a ballast output is presented.
