Provided herein is a controller for a low voltage disconnect (LVD), a method of protecting and providing a maximum or substantially maximum battery reserve coupled to a DC load bus and a power system manager. In one embodiment, the LVD controller includes an adaptive disconnect system configured to determine a variable LVD threshold voltage value and instruct the LVD to disconnect a battery reserve from a DC load bus based thereon. The variable LVD threshold voltage is determined based on a current of the battery reserve during a battery-discharge event.

An electrical winding structure configured for use in assembling a plurality of electrical winding structures in an installed orientation wound about a central member includes: a unitary segmented strip. First portions of the unitary strip are oriented about a first axis. Second portions of the unitary strip are oriented about a second axis substantially perpendicular with the first axis. Each of the first portions and the second portions have a thickness, have a width greater than the thickness and have a length at least as great as the width. The first and second portions are oriented to effect arranging the electrical winding structure at predetermined loci during winding to clear the winding path to establish a predetermined plurality of strata in the installed orientation.

The present invention provides a soft-transition controller for use with a synchronous converter having primary and secondary rectifiers. In one embodiment, the soft-transition controller includes a primary driver configured to provide a primary drive signal to the primary rectifier operating in a synchronous mode, while the secondary rectifier is operating in a diode mode, to provide an output voltage of the synchronous rectifier. Additionally, the soft-transition controller also includes a complementary driver coupled to the primary driver and configured to provide a soft-transition drive signal during a transition period, which transfers the secondary rectifier from the diode mode to a synchronous mode while maintaining the output voltage within a predetermined voltage range.
