  • Patent number: 8907736
    Abstract: A digital pulse width modulation controller includes a pulse width modulation controller, a selection unit having at least one selector, a comparison unit having at least one comparator, and a signal conversion unit having at least one digital-to-analog converter. The digital-to-analog converter generates a reference current and/or voltage. The comparator receives the reference current and/or voltage, and performs a comparison operation to generate a comparison signal based on a feedback signal. The selector selects one selection signal to input into the pulse width modulation controller, which receives other parameters set by a user or the system at the same time so as to control characteristics of the digital pulse width modulation signals, thereby improving the electric properties of a loading circuit.

  • Patent number: 8513941
    Abstract: A power detection regulation device including a power detection signal generator, a power state detector and a regulated output unit is disclosed. The power detection signal generator receives the input power from an external power supply and generates a power detection signal. The power state detector generates a power state signal based on the power state derived from the power detection signal. The regulated output unit receives the power state signal and generates a driving signal to an external electrical device in accordance with the feedback signal from the external electrical device. The power state signal is provided for the external electrical element to perform relevant processes, and the regulated output device can output the predetermined driving signal on receiving the power state signal indicating some abnormal situation in the input power so as to maintain the normal operation performed by the actuating element in the external electrical device.

  • Patent number: 8334685
    Abstract: A signal detector and a signal detection method adapted for detecting a voltage signal are provided. According to a digital signal converted from a low voltage full wave or half wave signal and/or a mains AC signal inputted thereto, the signal detector and the signal detection method are capable of detecting a voltage level, and/or a frequency, and/or a zero point, and/or a phase of the low voltage full wave or half wave signal and/or the mains AC signal inputted thereto, and determining whether the detected factor is abnormal, and is further capable of outputting an interrupt signal for subsequent processing.

  • Patent number: 8213195
    Abstract: A PWM step wave and sine wave driving device is provided. The driving device includes an ADC unit, an input processing unit, a first pulse width calculation unit, a register unit, a first output unit, a zero point detecting unit, a second pulse width calculation unit, a second output unit, and a multiplexer output unit. The driving device receives input signals, and output desired step wave or sine wave driving signals for driving an external electric device. The driving device detects a point of zero voltage of the system power supply by the zero point detecting unit. When the system power supply is abnormal, the first output unit outputs predetermined PWM step wave output signals, or the second output unit outputs predetermined PWM sine wave output signals. In such a way, the external electric device can be maintained for regular operation, so that the malfunction or breakdown thereof is prevented.

  • Patent number: 8134390
    Abstract: An integrated circuit (IC) type voltage signal converter is provided for integrating with other ICs. The signal converter includes a first chopper circuit module, a second chopper circuit module, a full wave combining module, and a zero point detecting circuit module. Each of the circuit modules may be formed by an IC module. The first and second chopper circuit modules are composed of differential operational amplifiers for converting a high voltage signal into first and second low voltage half wave signals. The full wave combining module combines the first and second low voltage half wave signals to obtain a full wave signal. The zero point detecting circuit module converts the first and second low voltage half wave signals into a square wave having the same frequency of the high voltage signal.
