  • Patent number: 9893561
    Abstract: A power supply conversion system receives an external power source to supply power to a load. The power supply conversion system includes at least one main power apparatus, at least one auxiliary power apparatus, a main switch, an auxiliary switch, and a control unit. The control unit turns on the main switch to restore the external power source when the control unit detects that the external power source is normally restored, and jointly supply power to the load with the auxiliary power apparatus. Especially, the output voltage of the main power apparatus is greater than the output voltage of the auxiliary power apparatus. In addition, the control unit disconnects the auxiliary power apparatus supplying power to the load when the control unit detects that the main power apparatus completely supplies power to the load.

  • Patent number: 8922280
    Abstract: A temperature compensation circuit is adapted to be used in an electronic device including a processing circuit. The temperature compensation circuit includes a thermistor, a compensation capacitor and a compensation diode. The thermistor has two ends, one of which is adapted to be electrically connected to the processing circuit. The compensation capacitor has two ends, one of which is electrically connected to the other one of the two ends of the thermistor. The compensation diode has an anode electrically connected to the other one of the two ends of the compensation capacitor, and a cathode to be grounded. The impedance of the thermistor varies with temperature so as to compensate and stabilize an output of the electronic device.

  • Patent number: 8299747
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a single-stage zero-current switching driving circuit for ultrasonic motor, which comprises: a buck-boost converter and a zero-current switching resonant inverter. The driving circuit according to the present invention integrates the buck-boost converter and the resonant inverter into a single-stage structure, so that the buck-boost converter and the resonant inverter share an active switch and a trigger signal, and therefore, the circuit is simplified and the loss caused by stage switching is reduced. Moreover, the buck-boost converter operates in a discontinuous-conduction mode (DCM), which allows the circuit to have high power factor, and enables the active switch to be capable of zero-current switching (ZCS), so that the loss caused by switching is largely reduced. In the driving circuit according to the present invention, there's no interaction of power between the buck-boost converter and the resonant inverter, so that the two circuits can be analyzed individually.
