Abstract:
Disclosed is a tin-carbon mesoporous composite for a lithium ion battery negative electrode material, and a method for preparing the same. Using a mesoporous molecular sieve as a template, the precursors of tin and carbon are caused to fill the mesopores of the template and carbonized under nitrogen to obtain a composite of stannic oxide and carbon, and the stannic oxide is encapsulated by the carbon; and then the tin-carbon mesoporous composite for lithium ion battery negative electrode material is obtained by hydrothermal treatment, carbonization, etching, and high temperature carbothermic reduction. The tin-carbon mesoporous composite for lithium ion battery negative electrode material synthesized in the present invention has a reversible capacity of 550 mAh·g−1, after 100 cycles at a current density of 500 mA·g−1.

Abstract:
An apparatus for coupling a switching mode power supply (SMPS) controller to a rectified line voltage. The apparatus includes a high-voltage startup transistor configured to provide a charging current during a startup phase of the SMPS controller and to provide substantially no current during a normal operation phase of the SMPS controller. A switch coupled to the high-voltage startup transistor. The switch receives a control signal from the SMPS controller, for turning off the switch during the startup phase and turning on the switch during the normal operation phase. A biasing device is connected in series with the switch and maintains the startup transistor in an off state when the SMPS controller is in the normal operation phase. A standby current in the apparatus is substantially lower when the SMPS controller is in the normal operation phase than the charging current in the apparatus when the SMPS is in the startup phase.

Abstract:
A startup circuit for a switching-mode power supply (SMPS) includes a first voltage detector configured to trigger the switching-mode power supply from a first operation mode to a second operation mode when an input supply voltage exceeds a first threshold voltage, a current consumption in the first voltage detector in the first operation mode being determined by a reverse leakage current of a diode. A feedback circuit is coupled to the first voltage detector and being capable of maintaining a positive feedback loop. A second voltage detector is coupled to the first voltage detector and the feedback circuit, and is configured to trigger the switching-mode power supply to switch from the second operation mode to the first operation mode when the input supply voltage is below a second threshold voltage.

Abstract:
A pulse frequency modulation (PFM) controller for controlling a switching mode power supply. The controller includes an output terminal for providing a control signal to turn on and off a current in the power supply to regulate an output of the power supply. A first input terminal receives a feedback signal related to the output of the power supply, the feedback signal exhibiting a ringing waveform when the current in the power supply is turned off. The controller also includes a control circuit configured to provide the control signal in response to the feedback signal. The control signal is adapted to turn on the current in the power supply when the feedback signal is substantially at a valley of the ringing waveform of the feedback signal. In an embodiment, such a PFM controller can reduce turn-on transition loss in a power supply and provides frequency dithering to reduce electromagnetic interference.
