538 results about "Chopper" patented technology

In electronics, a chopper circuit is used to refer to numerous types of electronic switching devices and circuits used in power control and signal applications. A chopper is a device that converts fixed DC input to a variable DC output voltage directly. Essentially, a chopper is an electronic switch that is used to interrupt one signal under the control of another.

Energy Supply System

An energy supply system has a number of DC choppers for converting the input voltages applied in each case into output voltages, and a number of energy storages for providing the input voltages, an energy storage being assigned to each DC chopper. An output voltage of at least one of the number of DC choppers is settable as a function of a setpoint input in order to expose the energy storage assigned to the at least one DC chopper to a load individually.

Multistage chopper stabilized delta-sigma ADC with reduced offset

A relatively low frequency chopping operation is applied to a delta-sigma ADC to reduce DC offsets resulting from non-ideal component operation. Sequential chopping takes place outside a closed loop and may include an inverted polarity feedback for a part of the chopping period. Nested chopping involves chopping within the closed loop, and may include an inverted polarity feedback and a time shift. The feedback compensation for sequential and nested chopping permits the correct polarity feedback to be provided at the desired time in conjunction with sampling and quantization events. Integrating capacitor(s) may be swapped in relative polarity during nested chopping to preserve residual conversion information for the desired polarity. The ADC operation is non-temperature dependent and avoids modification to the useful signal, resulting in higher accuracy.
