摘要:
An improved optically controlled power supply regulator in which an optoisolator transistor is controlled by an input light emitting diode replaces an optically controlled power supply regulator with a light emitting diode controlled with a light dependent resistor. The optically controlled power supply regulator utilizes a capacitor and a resistor to reduce loop response oscillation in order to prevent the optically controlled power supply regulator from being shut down on a system board.
摘要:
An electronic circuit package in which several high voltage components are packaged along with low voltage components using standard circuit boards and minimizing the space needed for the entire assembly. A miniature circuit board, constructed of standard circuit board material, is used to mount several electronic components, some of which require high voltages. To meet isolation requirements, requiring a dielectric strength more than that provided by the board itself, between the high and low voltage nodes the circuit board incorporates slots or other cut out shapes in the board. The slots or other cut out shapes provide two functions. The first use for the slots or other cut out shapes is to prevent charge migration on the surface of the board between high and low voltage nodes. This is accomplished by placing the slots or other cut out shapes between high and low voltage nodes. The circuit board is then encapsulated within a potting material. The slots or other cut out shapes perform a second function of allowing the potting material to flow around and through the board to facilitate full encapsulation of the board and the electronic devices on the board. Several of the slots or other cut out shapes are placed in the board directly underneath the electronic devices mounted on the board to aid in allowing the potting material to completely surround and encapsulate the electronic devices.

A micro-colloid thruster system may be fabricated using micro electromechanical system (MEMS) fabrication techniques. A beam of charged droplets may be extracted from an emitter tip in an emitter array by an extractor electrode and accelerated by an accelerator electrode to produce thrust. The micro-colloid thruster system may be used as the main propulsion system for microspacecraft and for precision maneuvers in larger spacecraft.

A power supply includes a power source having at least one power source output, and a plurality of drivers connected to the at least one power source output. At least one of the plurality of drivers includes a bridge network having a first switch, a second switch and a bridge network output. The first switch is connected between the at least one power source output and the bridge network output. The second switch is connected between the bridge network output and a ground. The bridge network further includes at least one control input connected to the second switch. The bridge network is adapted to change a state of the first switch based on a state of the second switch.
