  • Publication number: 20250130494
    Abstract: The components and methods disclosed herein are directed to positive type photosensitive resin compositions, which are comprised of an alkynyl containing polymer, a benzophenone type DNQ, and solvents. The alkynyl containing polymer is prepared by the condensation reaction of alkynyl containing dianhydrides and hydroxyl containing diamines, and alkynyl containing end cappers. The advantage of this formulation is that the resulting photosensitive resin composition is comprised of only a polymer, a benzophenone type DNQ PAC, and solvents that generates high resolution patterned films with good thermal and physical properties without using additional additives. This composition also enables film curing at relatively low temperatures without additional additives, simplifying the composition. After curing, the alkynyl units in the polymer chain and the chain ends give the cured film excellent solvent resistance and film retention due to intra and/or inter-molecular crosslinking.

The control circuit includes an on-time control unit, which receives a first signal characterizing switching frequency of first switch and a second signal characterizing current flowing through first switch and responsively generates a signal indicative of a turn-off instant for first switch. When a peak value of the current flowing through the first switch drops below a predefined value, the on-time control unit determines the turn-off instant for the first switch based on the first signal so that the switching frequency of the first switch is maintained at a target frequency. This design can effectively avoid the generation of audible noise, stabilize the output voltage against load changes while maintaining desirable efficiency, and ensure operational safety of the switched-mode power supply.

  • Patent number: 12249900
    Abstract: A control circuit, a control chip and a power supply device are disclosed by the present invention. The control circuits are used for control of a constant-voltage closed-loop which causes a voltage of a voltage feedback signal obtained from an output voltage to approach a voltage of a reference voltage signal obtained from a base voltage and thereby achieves a constant-voltage output. In addition, when a sampled current obtained from an output current is higher than a predetermined current, or when output power is higher than a predetermined power, the control circuit increases the voltage feedback signal or decreases the reference voltage signal, causing the constant-voltage closed loop to decrease the output voltage and the output current and thereby achieving a limited output current and limited output power.
