Disclosed is an apparatus that equally distributes current from a rectifier circuit to a plurality of power factor correction circuit units by equal current magnitudes and lower component count advantages of peak current sensing with the lower harmonic distortion advantages of average current sensing. The output of a single average current sensing correction circuit in a master controller is logically compared with the output of a peak current sensing circuit in each of a plurality of interleaved master and slave controller units to produce a difference signal used to operate the switch in the switch leg of each controller unit to reduce emi, harmonic distortion and increase power factor toward an in phase condition.

A method and apparatus are provided for monitoring and adjusting angular speed or rotational frequency of a fan as well as wear. As a result of being able to monitor the angular speed or rotational frequency of a fan, a prediction of both wear and failure can be made. Due largely to increasing internal friction related to the amount of wear, the energy required to operate a fan at a given angular speed or rotational frequency varies. Hence, an algorithm and certain devices can be employed to make wear and failure predictions of either an mechanical or electrical fan based on energy consumption relative to an angular speed or rotational frequency.

A direct current to direct current (DC/DC) converter control systems and related methods are disclosed. An exemplary embodiment provides a control circuit configured to modulate the duty cycles of a first switching device and a second switching device, and is further configured to compensate for a voltage drift at a monitoring node by varying the modulation for at least one of the switching devices.

An internal diode detection circuit for a device under test (DUT), a method of operating and a test fixture employing the same. In one embodiment, the internal diode detection circuit includes a source of electrical power that applies a reverse bias voltage to the DUT. The internal diode detection circuit also includes a current indicator, series-coupled to the DUT, that generates a signal when a current flows through the DUT. The signal indicates a presence of an internal diode in the DUT.
