摘要:
Examples disclose a controller with a meter interface to receive a first input power measurement provided from a meter. The meter delivers input power to a rectifier which delivers power to a load. Additionally, the examples disclose the controller with a rectifier interface to receive a second input power measurement provided from the rectifier. Further, the examples disclose the controller to manage the rectifier based on the first and the second input power measurements.

A method for power capping is disclosed. The power supplied to a load from a power supply is compared to a power capping limit 302. When the power drawn by the load exceeds the power capping limit, power to the load is supplied by both the power supply and an energy storage device 304.

A power converter (14) can include a switching system (18) to convert a direct current (DC) input voltage to an output voltage based on a switching signal having a duty-cycle. A controller (16) can set the duty-cycle of the switching signal, depending on the DC input voltage, to one of a substantially constant value, such that the output voltage follows the DC input voltage in a normal mode, and a value that varies inversely with respect to the DC input voltage, such that the output voltage is substantially constant in another mode.
摘要:
A switching power supply includes power factor correction circuitry and a standby output converter. One or more loads may be coupled to one or more outputs of the switching power supply. The switching power supply is configured to disable the power factor correction circuitry under some load conditions and to enable the power factor correction circuitry under other load conditions. As a consequence, power that would have been drawn by the power factor correction circuitry is conserved when the power factor correction circuitry is disabled.

Systems and methods for scaling a current signal in a power factor correction circuit are disclosed. An exemplary method may include providing a power factor correction circuit for a power supply, the power factor correction circuit having a first current sensing resistor connected on a return path to a rectified AC line. The method may also include measuring current across the first current sensing resistor. The method may also include switching on at least a second current sensing resistor in parallel with the first current sensing resistor if the measured current increases above a threshold value.
