    摘要: A conversion unit for decreasing an input voltage into an output voltage. The conversion unit includes a step-down converter circuit with at least two voltage inputs for the input voltage, at least two control units, wherein each control unit is assigned to a voltage input, wherein each control unit is configured, upon receipt of a time signal, to output a switch signal to apply the input voltage to the assigned voltage input, and, upon receipt of a reset signal, to reset the switch signal, to receive the switch signal of another control unit, and, upon receipt, to reset a permission signal, to output the switch signal only if the permission signal is reset, and to provide the permission signal when the switch signal is output.

    摘要: A power converter including a drive circuit connected to a power conversion circuit. The drive circuit is configured to: amplify a control signal from the controller, drive a switching tube in the power conversion circuit to be turned on or off, to implement power conversion of the power conversion circuit. The controller is configured to: in response to a voltage of the power conversion circuit being greater than or equal to a first threshold, control the drive circuit to be in a first amplification mode; or the controller is configured to: in response to a voltage of the power conversion circuit being less than a first threshold, control the drive circuit to be in a second amplification mode. An equivalent drive resistance of the drive circuit corresponding to the first amplification mode is greater than an equivalent drive resistance of the drive circuit corresponding to the second amplification mode.

    摘要: A system includes a transformer having a multi-phase AC input and AC phase segment outputs. A plurality of rectifiers are each connected to receive AC input from a respective one of the AC phase segment outputs. Each rectifier has a respective positive DC output and a respective negative DC output. A first interphase transformer (IPT) with a respective winding is connected to each of the positive DC outputs of the plurality of rectifiers. The windings of the first IPT are connected to an output node of a positive DC power rail. A second IPT with a respective winding is connected to each of the negative DC outputs of the plurality of rectifiers. The windings of the second IPT are connected to an output node of a negative DC power rail. A power switch is operatively connected from the positive DC power rail to the negative DC power rail.

    摘要: Controller and method for a power converter. For example, a controller for a power converter includes: a first terminal configured to receive a first terminal voltage; a second terminal configured to receive a second terminal voltage; a comparator configured to receive a first threshold voltage and the second terminal voltage and to generate a comparison signal based at least in part on the first threshold voltage and the second terminal voltage; and a switch configured to receive the first terminal voltage and the comparison signal, the switch being further configured to be closed to allow a current to flow out of the second terminal through the switch if the comparison signal is at a first logic level; wherein the comparator is further configured to: receive a first reference voltage as the first threshold voltage if the first terminal voltage is smaller than a second threshold voltage.
