    摘要: One example includes a power supply system. The system includes a power switch configured to activate via a control voltage responsive to a first state of an activation signal to conduct current from a power rail to a switching terminal. The system further includes a power switch deactivation driver configured to control an amplitude of the control voltage responsive to a second state of the activation signal based on a voltage difference between the power rail and the switching terminal to provide for a variable rate of deactivation of the power switch.

    摘要: A configuration that converts power from high voltage to low voltage by selectively connecting a predetermined storage element group to a low voltage electrical load from a high voltage power supply formed by connecting storage elements in series. In this configuration, the number of storage elements is set such that the voltage of each storage element group is slightly higher than the rated operating voltage of the low voltage electrical load means when the voltage of the storage elements is at its lowest. Along with this, a rectifying means and a smoothing circuit composed of an inductor and a capacitor are provided on the output side of the switching means to control the ratio of ON time and OFF time (dead time) of the switching means. As a result, a stable low-voltage power supply is constructed without being affected by changes in the voltage (SOC) of the storage element.

    摘要: A voltage regulator system of an information handling system includes a Smart Power Stage (SPS) and a voltage regulator controller. The SPS includes a high-side transistor and a low-side transistor. The voltage regulator controller detects a normal power down of the information handling system and sets bleed state for the SPS to a first state. Based on the bleed state being set to the first state, the voltage regulator controller provides a first control voltage to the low-side transistor and a second control voltage to the high-side transistor. The first control voltage causes the low-side transistor to be fully turned on, and the second control voltage causes the high-side transistor to be in a linear region. In response to a predetermined amount of time expiring, the voltage regulator controller enters the SPS in an idle mode.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a boosting system includes a booster circuit. The booster circuit is configured to receive a direct current (DC) voltage input and to adjust the DC voltage input. The boosting system further includes a current sensing circuit coupled to the booster circuit and a first end of a power cable. The current sensing circuit is configured to measure a current at the first end of the power cable. The boosting system further includes one or more processors coupled to the booster circuit and the current sensing circuit. The one or more processors are configured to adjust an output of the booster circuit when the current sensing circuit indicates that the current at the first end of the power cable exceeds a first threshold. The first threshold is selected at least in part based on one or more safety standards of the power cable.

    摘要: Embodiments of this disclosure provide an active current limiting circuit, a power supply device, a power supply system and a control method, wherein at least one bidirectional switch in the active current limiting circuit is turned on or off based on the current sampling signal obtained by sampling the current in the bidirectional switch in the active current limiting circuit. With the active current limiting circuit, the inrush current generated in switching the power supply lines may be efficiently reduced, power consumption may be lowered, output of large power may be provided, the capacitor may be charged and sufficient power output may be provided to the load. And furthermore, the bidirectional switch in the active current limiting circuit may be flexibly controlled based on the current sampling signal, thereby improving operating efficiency of the active current limiting circuit.
