Abstract: A system and method for controlling power supply input filter oscillations is provided. The method includes utilizing a converter power circuit to generate a positive input resistance to counteract input filter oscillations, which are generated in response to normal converter negative input impedance and current-mode control operation. A controller controls the converter power circuit to generate the positive resistance utilizing a first input corresponding to the voltage applied to the converter input. A second input disables the converter power circuit based on completion of output capacitor charge, the first and second inputs being different.

Abstract: A powered device receives electrical power through a data transmission cable from a power supplying device that monitors a load on the data transmission cable and turns off the power to the load if the load is outside of a range. The powered device draws a first current at least part of a time during which the powered device is in a low power mode. The powered device is operable during the low power mode to draw a second current. And the powered device increases and decreases the second current to maintain a sum of the first current and the second current, or a level of a current into the powered device, at least at a minimum level for at least a portion of a cycle time.

Abstract: An off-line switcher flyback-type power converter circuit is designed having energy and operative control circuits operating off a tertiary winding of the power transformer. A delayed current shutdown circuit permits starting in the face of high demand current loads whereby the load is supplied with bursts of current as start up is cyclic and delayed shutdown is also cyclic in this situation.
