Abstract: The present invention is an apparatus and method for provisioning a compact power filter connection to a well-grounded connector in such a way as to include a capacitive and inductive circuit connection, extremely near the connector and filter, such that EMC compatibility is created in a space roughly 30% of traditional mechanisms and design approach to satisfy the aforementioned needs, provide the previously stated objects, include the above-listed features, and achieve the already articulated advantages. The present invention is carried out in a “post-internal ferrite bead re-radiation noise-less” manner, in a sense that ability to have noise introduced back onto a post-ferrite bead line has been greatly reduced.

Abstract: Disclosed is a secure data system power supply having an input coupleable to an input voltage line and an output coupleable to a secure data system and providing isolation between the input voltage line and the secure data system such that information communicated within the secure data system is undetectable from the input voltage line. The power supply does not utilize a linear current source for isolation, and thereby greatly reduces power loss. A constant power flyback converter is adapted to be coupled between the input voltage line and the secure data system. The constant power flyback converter takes as an input from the input voltage line a constant power input and provides at a converter output an output signal for use in powering the secure data system. A shunt voltage regulator is coupled to the converter output and maintains the output signal at a substantially constant voltage.

Abstract: A battery charger utilizes three basic modes of operation that includes a maintenance mode, a rapid charge mode and time controlled limited charging mode. The device utilizes feedback from the battery being charged of voltage, current and temperature to determine the mode of operation and the time period during which the battery is being charged.

Abstract: An AC to DC converter that utilizes a split capacitor, half bridge, DC to DC converter compensates for unequal voltages across each member of a split capacitor bank. A voltage balance control circuit senses any differences in voltages across the member capacitors and generates an error correcting signal for modifying steering signals to an inverter that is used to convert a DC signal from the half bridge DC to DC converter to a high frequency pulse width modulated AC signal by alternately placing each member of the split capacitor bank and consequently their stored energy across the output terminals of the inverter. The error signal causes the steering signals to connect the member capacitor with the larger sensed voltage across the output terminals for a relatively larger period of time than the capacitor with the lesser sensed voltage.
