  • Publication number: 20170370964
    Abstract: A test device and a method are provided in the invention. The test device includes a first connection interface, a storage device, a processor and a second connection interface. The first connection interface is coupled to a device under test (DUT) and obtains power information from the DUT according to a first instruction. The storage device stores the power information. The processor is coupled to the first connection interface and storage device, when the first connection interface is coupled to the DUT, sends the first instruction to the first connection interface, receives the power information from the first connection interface, and stores the power information in the storage device. The second connection interface is coupled to an external controlling system, sends the power information to the external controlling system and receives a test instruction from the external controlling system to test the DUT.

  • Publication number: 20170373532
    Abstract: An uninterruptible power system includes a power conversion apparatus, a switch unit and a control apparatus. The switch unit outputs a mains voltage in a line mode, and output an alternating conversion voltage in a battery mode. The control apparatus is configured to generate a base triangular wave signal according to the mains voltage. When the uninterruptible power system is in a battery mode and the control apparatus detects the regeneration of the mains voltage, the control apparatus is configured to determine whether a cross-over value of the base triangular wave signal is within a predetermined range when the mains voltage is at a zero-cross point. The control apparatus is configured to control the switch unit to output the mains voltage instead of the alternating conversion voltage when the cross-over value of the base triangular wave signal is within the predetermined range.

  • Publication number: 20170366088
    Abstract: A power delivery device and a control method are shown. The power delivery device includes a power conversion circuit, a power factor correction circuit, and an output voltage control circuit. The power conversion circuit includes a primary side and a secondary side, and is configured to receive an input voltage and convert the input voltage to an output voltage. The power factor correction circuit is electrically coupled to the primary side and configured to increase the power factor of the power delivery device. The output voltage control circuit is electrically coupled to the secondary side and configured to control the voltage level of the output voltage. When the voltage level of the output voltage is lower than a predetermined level, the power factor correction circuit is deactivated.

  • Publication number: 20170351638
    Abstract: A module comprising a USB Type-C receptacle, a USB Type-C plug and a logic unit is disclosed. A power pin of the receptacle is connected with another power pin of the plug via a switch. A CC pin of the receptacle is connected to ground through a pull-down resistance. Another CC pin of the plug is connected to the logic unit through a pull-up resistance. The module connects with a power source device being a power sink-role in order to receive a source capability of the power source device, then turns on the switch and transforms itself to a power source-role. The module connects to a DRP device afterward being the power source-role to act for the power source device and perform a USB PD communication with the DRP device.

  • Patent number: 9780286
    Abstract: A nebulizing driving apparatus is used to drive a piezoelectric material of a nebulizing module. The nebulizing driving apparatus includes a driving circuit, a control circuit and a feedback circuit. The feedback circuit detects an electrical data fed back from the piezoelectric material and sends the electrical data to the control circuit when the control circuit is configured to control the driving circuit to drive the piezoelectric material with a driving frequency. According to the electrical data, the control circuit is configured to control the driving circuit to drive the piezoelectric material with a working frequency.
