  • Patent number: 8053936
    Abstract: In a power supply circuit, first and second loads are connected in parallel to a power source though first and second power lines, respectively. A power line connector connects the first and second power lines together in such a manner that even when one of the first and second power lines is broken, the first and second loads are supplied with electric power from the power source through the other of the first and second power lines. A rectifier device is connected to each of the first and second power lines between the power source and the power line connector. The rectifier device allows an electric current in a direction from the power source to the first and second loads and blocks the electric current in opposite direction.

  • Patent number: 7012460
    Abstract: An IC device has a MOSFET serving as a power switch, a condenser connected between a first input terminal of the IC and the gate of the MOSFET, and a ferroelectric condenser connected between a second input terminal of the IC and the gate of the MOSFET. A prescribed voltage having a predetermined polarity is applied across the first and the second input terminals to generate a remanent polarization oriented in a specific direction in the ferroelectric condenser, thereby raising the threshold voltage of the MOSFET to a higher level than its original level. The power switching MOSFET is fabricated in the same manufacturing process as for other circuit blocks of the IC device such that it has substantially the same threshold voltage as that of the MOSFETs in other circuit blocks.

  • Patent number: 5511943
    Abstract: A method and device using a single-throw switch for controlling the revolving speed of the ceiling fan and light assembly and the light intensity of its lamps. The method obtains a 60 Hz square wave of cycle 16.67 ms from a typical alternating current power supplied from an electric power company and provides a working direct current voltage to a microprocessor through a direct current power supply circuit. When power is turned off and on (a switching cycle) by the single-throw switch, the microprocessor calculates the interrupting time during each switching cycle and regulates the revolving speed of the ceiling fan or the light intensity of the lamps based on the calculated result.
