摘要:
The present invention relates to a power supply modulator for a radio transmitter having apportioned input impedance and buffered switching of power modules. A series arrangement of power supply modules, conventionally disposed in a diode cascade, includes individual inductors to apportion the input impedance of the switching power supplies. The switching sequence of the power supplies is controlled by a FIFO buffer, with the sequentially adjacent power supplies being disposed physically remote so that current transients and thermal loads are more uniformly distributed.

An audio system includes a light sensitive switch connected to a microphone. Activation of the microphone operates the switch, thereby indicating that the microphone is in use. When the user turns the microphone on, a voltage is applied across a light emitting diode which causes the diode to emit light. The light activates the light sensitive switch which is connected to the remainder of the audio system. The system interprets activation of the light sensitive switch as an indication that the microphone is in use and responds accordingly.

This invention employs timing circuitry for each voltage source in a multilevel power supply for an amplifier to control the change in voltage outputted from the associated voltage source over time or slew rate when that voltage source is switched on or off preventing large instantaneous voltage increases at the input of the amplifier from occurring when a combination of the voltage sources supplying the amplifier is switched to a different combination upon the output voltage of the amplifier changing.

A switch connected between two voltage sources and responsive to a sensing circuit. The switch includes a transistor which operates to interchange the electrical connection of the two voltage sources from parallel to series upon the sensing circuit signals the need for more voltage. The two sources are normally in parallel to increase the cost efficiency and energy efficiency of the amplifier and power supply.
摘要:
A method of fault sensing for a power amplifier having direct coupled power stages with normally mutually exclusive current flow in which the alternating current output is simultaneously sensed and, when a fault is detected, is ANDed. A power reduction to the amplifier is initiated when the ANDed output exists for a selected period of time.
摘要:
A bridge amplifier having paired high and low output stages in which a main amplifier receiving an input signal drives the high output stages and a balancing amplifier drives the low of the output stages. A junction temperature simulation circuit extends between the main amplifier and the low output stages in which the temperatures of the low output stages are sensed to produce an arresting of the main amplifier drive to the high output stages and thereby simultaneously control the balancing amplifier and its drive to the low output stages.

In a low-level audio preamplifier circuit having complementary connected PNP and NPN bipolar transistors cascode coupled to other complementary PNP and NPN bipolar transistors in receiving the audio input from a low-level transducer in which induced distortion from externally generated radio frequence energy is cancelled.
摘要:
An amplifier selector for use with a MRI machine having stacked amplifiers. The selector includes a switch assembly carried by each amplifier and controlled by a central controller. Each switch assembly includes a motor for rotating a plurality of switch plates to various predetermined stations. The stations connect the input and output terminals of the slave amplifier to either the X, Y or Z axis of the MRI machine. A fourth station is included to define an off line condition for the amplifier.
