    摘要: An active linear regulator circuit in parallel with a filter capacitor of a switching voltage regulator injects current to a load only when the switching regulator and capacitor cannot supply adequate current to follow high frequency load transients in a manner which is compatible with adaptive voltage positioning (AVP) requirements. control of current injection and determination of the insufficiency of current from the switching regulator and capacitors is achieved by impedance matching of the linear regulator to the switching regulator. The linear regulator thus operates at relatively low current and duty cycle to limit power dissipation therein. By matching impedances and increasing the bandwidth of the switching regulator, filter capacitor requirements can be reduced to the point of being met entirely by packaging and/or on-die capacitors which may be placed close to or at the point of load to reduce parasitic inductance, as can the linear regulator.

    摘要: A method of printing an ink that comprises reactive dyes as colorants. The ink has at least one cyclodextrin (CD) compound to react with reactive dye molecules, while a hydrophobic cavity is filled with a disperse dye component to create an encapsulation prior to the ink formulation stage. The ink also includes a crosslinking agent that is capable of creating a chemical bonding reaction between the unreacted portion of the hydroxyl functional groups of cyclodextrin (CD), an optional alkaline substance, and other optional ink additives. Permanently bonded color images are provided by the reaction between the chemically altered and colored cyclodextrin (CD) and the final substrate, which may be any cellulosic, protein, or polyamide fiber material, or mixtures with polyester, by the application of energy.

    摘要: In a power converter having m=two or more channels of power factor correction (PFC) circuits connected in parallel and an electromagnetic interference (EMI) filter connected in series therewith, phase shifts in switching between the respective PFC channels can allow increase of EMI filter corner frequency allowing reduction of size and cost of the EMI filter at some switching frequencies. Asymmetrical phase shifts (other than 360°/m) such as 360°/2m and other phase shifts and variations in m allow increase of EMI filter corner frequency at switching frequencies where symmetrical, 360°/m phase shifts provide no benefit to EMI filter design by providing cancellation or partial cancellation of different harmonics of the switching noise; which cancellation may be arranged to be complementary to the EMI filter function at more than one peak of the noise spectrum. (Such asymmetrical phase shifts do not significantly increase ripple and consequent switching noise). Alteration of m and corresponding alteration of phase shift may be performed adaptively for purposes of improving efficiency at light loads and the like.

    摘要: Power converters having reduced body diode conduction loss, reduced reverse recovery loss and lower switching noise, among other benefits, have a resonant capacitor Cr connected across an unfiltered output. The resonant capacitor Cr resonates with the leakage inductance Lk of the transformer. The resonant capacitor and leakage inductance are selected such that ½ a LC resonance period is equal to an ON time of each secondary switch S1 S2. The resonance provides zero current switching for secondary switches S1 S2, eliminates zero body diode conduction during dead times, and eliminates reverse recovery losses in the secondary switches. The present invention is applicable to many different circuit topologies such as full bridge, active clamp forward, push-pull forward, and center-tap secondary. The present converters provide high energy conversion efficiency and high frequency operation.

    摘要: A two-stage power converter that dynamically adjusts to output current requirements includes a first stage regulator that provides power to a second stage regulator. The first stage can be a buck converter, and the second stage can be a multiple-phase buck converter. The output voltage of the first stage (intermediate bus voltage Vbus) is varied according to the load current to optimize conversion efficiency. To provide maximum efficiency, the Vbus voltage is increased as load current increases. The Vbus voltage provided by the first stage can be varied by duty cycle or operating frequency control. In another embodiment, the switching frequency of the second stage is varied as output current changes so that output current ripple is held constant. In an embodiment employing a multiple-phase buck converter in the second stage, the number of operating phases are varied as output current changes.

    摘要: Devices and methods for equalizing the gain of an optical amplifier are described. For devices including harmonic filters that are controllable by amplitude control voltages and phase control voltages, techniques for controlling the amplitude control voltages and phase control voltages are presented. Additionally, device architectures are described by which an incoming optical signal is equalized to compensate for uneven gain in prior amplifiers or other optical components, and in which the incoming optical signal is received at a beam displacer and separated into orthogonal component beams, wherein the beams are counter-propagated through the equalizer in opposite directions through the same spatial path so as to minimize or eliminate the effects spatially dependent imperfections in the equalizer.
