    摘要: A method of controlling a resolution of digital pulse width modulation is applied to a digital pulse width modulation generator. The method is to divide a value of a first duty clock by a value of a first pulse width modulation period clock to generate a first resolution. And then, if it is confirmed that a modulation command has been received, a second resolution is generated, and if it is confirmed that the modulation command is not received, a third resolution is generated. The second resolution is greater than the first resolution, and the second resolution is less than the third resolution.

    摘要: A dual-mode active clamp flyback converter includes a transformer circuit, a clamping energy storage circuit, and a main switch circuit. The transformer circuit is coupled to a load, and the transformer circuit includes an auxiliary winding. The clamping energy storage circuit is coupled to the transformer circuit. If the load as a heavy loading, the clamping energy storage circuit is turned on. If the load as a light loading, the clamping energy storage circuit is turned off.

    摘要: An electronic device is provided. The electronic device integrates an enable function and an over-temperature protection function (OTP) on the same line, thereby reducing the PCB layout between a microcontroller and a mainboard circuit, and further reducing the circuit complexity and cost. In addition, the negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor in the electronic device is also directly coupled to a circuit pin used for the enable function of the microcontroller to serve as an over-temperature protection application. Therefore, even if the microcontroller fails, the electronic device may still use the hardware circuit structure to automatically achieve the over-temperature protection function.

    摘要: A power conversion apparatus with oscillation reduction control supplies power to a load through an output end. The power conversion apparatus includes a transformer, a power switch, a control module, and an oscillation reduction control module. A primary side of the transformer receives an input voltage, and a secondary side of the transformer is coupled to the output end. The power switch is coupled to the primary side. The control module is coupled to the power switch, controls the power switch continuously turning on and turning off, and converts the input voltage into an output voltage. When the oscillation reduction control module detects a resonance voltage through the secondary side, the oscillation reduction control module performs an oscillation reduction operation to the resonance voltage to reduce an amplitude of the resonance voltage by a damper.
