  • Patent number: 10718635
    Abstract: A contact detection circuit is applied to a four-terminal measurement device. The contact detection circuit comprises a first isolator, a signal generator, a multiplier and a calculator. The first isolator comprises a primary side and a secondary side, with the secondary side comprising a first terminal and a second terminal, with the first terminal configured to be electrically connected to a driving terminal and the second terminal configured to be electrically connected to a measuring terminal. The signal generator is configured to provide a measuring signal. The multiplier is configured to generate an output signal based on the measuring signal and a first reflected signal when the first reflected signal is induced at the primary side of the first isolator based on the measuring signal. The calculator calculates contact resistance between the driving terminal and the measuring terminal based on a direct-current component of the output signal.

  • Patent number: 10291116
    Abstract: An output control method for a controller includes the following steps. At each of detection time points, the controller detects a detection voltage value and a detection current value of a load. In a voltage control mode, the controller generates a setting parameter to control the power amplifier according to part of the detection voltage values. In a current control mode, the controller generates the setting parameter to control the power amplifier according to part of the detection current values. When the controller switches to the voltage control mode or the current control mode, the controller determines a ratio between the detection current value and the detection voltage value at one of the detection time points and the setting parameter is generated according to the ratio. Therefore, the bandwidth is substantially the same no matter if the controller operates in the voltage control mode or the current control mode.

  • Patent number: 6340916
    Abstract: An innovated transimpedance amplifier circuit consists of a buffer circuit, a simulation resistance circuit, and an amplifier circuit. The buffer circuit for inputting a signal circuit is constituted by two FETs and a resistor, and has a high current input efficiency and function of widening circuit frequency band. The simulation resistance circuit is constituted by a resistor, two buffer units, a coupling capacitor, and a biasing resistor. When operating at a low frequency, the simulating resistance circuit permits a large amount of background DC to flow through; on the other hand, when operating at a high frequency, this circuit can improve the signal coupling efficiency and reduce foreign signal output voltage. On the whole, by the circuit of the present invention, both the detecting sensitivity and the amplification factor of the signal current can be significantly improved.
