Abstract: A control method improves the efficiency profile of a power supply across a wide range of output loading. The method includes obtaining a measure of output power for a power supply, which includes one or more output modules and an auxiliary power supply. The method determines whether a maximum power rating of the auxiliary power supply is sufficient to provide the measure of output power. Responsive to a determination that the maximum power rating of the auxiliary power supply is sufficient to provide the measure of output power, the controller of the power supply directs the auxiliary power supply to provide the output power.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for detecting a fault across a pair of lines. Pulse power is applied across the pair of lines. The pulse power comprises alternating pulse on-time intervals and pulse off-time intervals. During a pulse off-time interval, a resistor is connected across the pair of lines and then disconnected when a voltage across the pair of lines reaches a first droop percentage in a first period of time. After disconnecting the resistor, it is determined whether the voltage across the pair of lines droops at least a second droop percentage within a second period of time that begins after the first period of time. Occurrence of a line-to-line fault across the pair of lines is determined when the voltage across the pair of lines droops by at least the second droop percentage or more within the second period of time.

Abstract: Embodiments herein describe control circuitry for operating a PFC converter in an AC-DC power supply under light loading conditions. The embodiments herein improve the power factor by identifying an optimized phase offset (γ) between an AC reference voltage and an AC reference current used to control the PFC converter. In one embodiment, the control circuitry iteratively changes the phase offset between the reference voltage and current and measures its impact on the power factor. The control circuitry then selects the phase offset that results in the best power factor to use when operating the PFC converter under light loading conditions.
