  • Patent number: 11762404
    Abstract: A power supply device having variable output voltage includes a controller, and a first power supply module and a second power supply module connected in parallel. The controller selectively outputs a first voltage control signal and a first switch control signal to the first power supply module, or outputs a second voltage control signal and a second switch control signal to the second power supply module according to a voltage requirement signal. An output power of the first power supply module has a first voltage value selected from a first voltage value set, an output power of the second power supply module has a second voltage value selected from a second voltage value set, and a minimum value of the first voltage value set is greater than a maximum value of the second voltage value set. Thus, more extensive voltage output capabilities are provided, and good power conversion efficiency is achieved at the same time.

  • Patent number: 11025156
    Abstract: A power apparatus, a current detecting circuit and a current detecting method are provided. The power apparatus includes a power conversion circuit and the current detecting circuit. The power conversion circuit generates an output current. The current detecting circuit includes first and second current sensing resistors and a control circuit. The first current sensing resistor and the second current sensing resistor sense the output current to generate first and second sensing voltage, respectively. The control circuit receives the first sensing voltage and the second sensing voltage, and converts the first sensing voltage and the second sensing voltage respectively into a first current sensing value and a second current sensing value. The control circuit triggers a protection mechanism when the first current sensing value is greater than a first overcurrent protection value.
