Abstract: Disclosed herein is an apparatus for measuring the differential mode delay of multimode optical fiber. The apparatus includes a tunable laser source, an interferometer, a data collecting device, and a computer. The tunable laser source outputs light, frequencies of which vary linearly. The interferometer generates multimode light and single mode light by separating light, which is output from the tunable laser source, transmitting the multimode light and the single mode light to the multimode optical fiber, which is a measurement target, and a single mode path, which is a reference, and generating a beating signal by causing the multimode light and the single mode light to interfere with each other. The data collecting device collects the beating signal from the interferometer. The computer converts the frequency components of the beating signal into components in a time domain, and calculating the mode delay of the multimode light.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a flyback converter with a synchronous rectifier which is applied to a power supply of a portable computer such as a notebook PC. The flyback converter is operated in a critical conduction mode to turn on/off a main switch at a zero crossing point of an output voltage. The flyback converter is also adapted to supply a driving voltage to a synchronous switch using the output voltage. Therefore, there is no need for a secondary auxiliary coil of a transformer and for a Schottky diode to be connected in parallel with the synchronous switch, resulting in simplification in circuit design.
