  • Publication number: 20240146205
    Abstract: A flyback power converter includes a power transformer, a first lossless voltage conversion circuit, a first low-dropout linear regulator and a secondary side power supply circuit. The first low-dropout linear regulator (LDO) generates a first operation voltage as power supply for being supplied to a sub-operation circuit. The secondary side power supply circuit includes a second lossless voltage conversion circuit and a second LDO. The second LDO generates a second operation voltage. The first operation voltage and the second operation voltage are shunted to a common node. When a first lossless conversion voltage is greater than a first threshold voltage, the second LDO is enabled to generate the second operation voltage to replace the first operation voltage as power supply supplied to the sub-operation circuit; wherein the second lossless conversion voltage is lower than the first lossless switching voltage.

  • Patent number: 7338194
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display and a backlight module thereof are provided. A backlight module comprises a light source, a reflector, and a bottom plate. The reflector is disposed under the light source. The bottom plate is disposed under the reflector and facing a lower surface of the reflector. The bottom plate comprises a plurality of trench structures formed on a surface thereof facing the reflector. Heat-produced by the light source mixes with air in the trench structures, and the mixture of heat and air is conducted via the trench structures to the bottom plate, thereby dissipating heat.
