    Abstract: A power supply system includes a plurality of power supplies coupled to a common power bus. Each of the plurality of power supplies adjusts an output voltage set-point within a droop window in response to an excursion sensed voltage on the common power bus reflecting the current load on the power supply system. In response to a transient in the sensed voltage being above or below the droop window, each power supply may shift its droop window up or down. If the droop window of each power supply is at a maximum or minimum value within a voltage regulation window, each power supply may respond to a transient in the sensed voltage by compressing the droop window.

    Abstract: In some examples, a trust controller generates a first value and send the first value to a target controller of a subsystem, and generates a first verification value based on the first value and a known good code image for the target controller. The trust controller receives a second verification value from the target controller, the second verification value based on the first value and a code image to be executed at the target controller. The trust controller determines whether the code image to be executed at the target controller is compromised based on the first verification value and the second verification value.

    Abstract: A system including multiple power supplies is provided. Each of the power supplies is configured to provide a standby power to a management unit in the system through a standby output and a main power through a main output, when an input power signal has been received for the system. The system also includes a resistor configured to receive a standby signal from each of the power supplies to raise a signal voltage, wherein the standby signal is a pre-selected current. The system also includes a controller in each of the power supplies, the controller configured to raise the signal voltage to the specified value when the signal voltage is greater than a threshold, and to enable the standby power from a respective power supply to reach the management unit when the signal voltage is within the specified value. A method to use the above system for a synchronized power supply to a management unit is also provided.

    Abstract: A method for detecting thermal events in an electrical system includes: synchronizing, via a controller, measurements of power consumed by each of a plurality of load elements during an interval with one another and with measurements of power supplied by each of a plurality of power sources to the plurality of load elements during the interval; determining a differential between a sum of the power consumed by the load elements during the interval and a sum of the power supplied by the power sources to the plurality of load elements during the interval; comparing the differential to a predetermined threshold; and determining whether a thermal event has occurred based on the comparison of the differential to the predetermined threshold.

    Abstract: Various examples provide systems and methods in which a capacitor is charged by an active first power factor correction module and a voltage across the capacitor is determined while the second power factor correction module is exclusively active. A health state of the second power factor correction module may be determined based on the determined voltage across the capacitor.
