ADAPTIVE ON-TIME FOR VOLTAGE CONVERTER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17829035 titled 'ADAPTIVE ON-TIME FOR VOLTAGE CONVERTER
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a voltage converter that includes a switch network, a rectifier, and a transformer.
- The voltage converter has an adaptive ON-time generation circuit that controls the switch network.
- The adaptive ON-time generation circuit receives a WAKE signal to turn ON the switch network.
- It generates a signal that represents the OFF time of the switch network.
- Based on this signal, the adaptive ON-time generation circuit determines the ON time for the switch network.
- The purpose of this innovation is to improve the efficiency and performance of the voltage converter.
Original Abstract Submitted
A voltage converter includes a switch network, a rectifier, and a transformer coupled between the switch network and the rectifier. The voltage converter includes an adaptive ON-time generation circuit having a control input and a control output, the control input. The adaptive ON-time generation circuit is configured to receive a WAKE signal to turn ON the switch network, generate a signal indicative of an OFF time of the switch network, and determine an ON time for the switch network based on the signal indicative of the OFF time.
