Abstract: A power supply protection device for an electric appliance includes a switching circuit for establishing an electrical connection to receive an external voltage from the external power supply and output the external voltage to the electric appliance, a detecting circuit for disabling the switch circuit to break the electrical connection when determining the external voltage is equal to or higher than a predetermined value, and an alert circuit for generating an alert signal when the electrical connection is broken and outputting the alert signal to a user.

Abstract: An electronic device includes an operation circuit, a positive input terminal, a negative input terminal, a resistor, and a field effect transistor. The negative input terminal is used for cooperating with the positive input terminal to receive an input voltage. The field effect transistor includes a source connected to the positive input terminal, a drain connected to the operation circuit, and a gate connected to the positive input terminal and the operation circuit via the resistor.

Abstract: An exemplary charging control circuit includes a signal shaping unit, a first switch unit, and a second switch unit. The signal shaping unit receives a control signal, and is capable of reshaping the received control signal to have a time interval transited from a first state to a second state. The first switch unit receives the shaped control signal, and generates a first switching signal. The second switch unit receives the first switching signal, and is capable of being turned on based on the first switching signal for allowing electrical power to be outputted to a battery.

Abstract: A sensor assembly has a substrate with a microchannel formed therein through which a fluid can flow. At least one sensor is proximate to the microchannel. The temperature of the at least one sensor or fluid may indicate the condition of the fluid, for example, the flow rate and the presence of gas bubbles and particulate substances.
