    摘要: A holdup energy arrangement can include a motor control module configured to connect to motor power electronics to operate an inverter to control a motor. The motor control module can operate at a lower voltage than the motor power electronics. The arrangement can include a power supply operatively connected to the motor control module and configured to provide power the motor control module and a converter operatively connected to the power supply and configured to be electrically connected to a DC link capacitor of the motor power electronics. The arrangement can also include a logic control module configured to control the converter to selectively allow energy to flow from the DC link capacitor, through the converter, and to the power supply to provide holdup energy to the power supply with energy from the DC link capacitor.

    摘要: A voltage measurement system and method is provided. Aspects include a comparator having a positive and a negative input terminal, a processor configured to supply a reference voltage signal to the negative input terminal, wherein the positive input terminal receives an input voltage, setting the reference voltage signal to a zero voltage signal, determine a line frequency of the input voltage based on a timing signal from the comparator and determining a first pulse width of the input signal based on the timing signal, set the reference voltage to a PWM signal with a fixed duty cycle, receive the timing signal from the output of the comparator, determine a rising edge and a falling edge associated with the input voltage based on the timing signal, and determine a peak value of the input voltage based on a second pulse width between the rising and falling edge.

    摘要: A voltage monitor for a fly-back circuit. The circuit includes a voltage source, a transformer comprising a primary winding electrically coupled to the voltage source and a secondary winding electrically coupled to a load, a diode connected between the secondary winding and the load, a switch electrically coupled to the primary winding and a controller operable to open and close the switch to control energy transfer from the primary winding to the secondary winding. The voltage monitor is connected to a node between the secondary winding and the diode that generates an output signal that is a toggling output when the voltage source is operating above an input voltage threshold and a constant output when the voltage source is operating below the input voltage threshold.
