11 results about "Extra-low voltage" patented technology

Extra-low voltage (ELV) is an electricity supply voltage in a range which carries a low risk of dangerous electrical shock. There are various standards that define extra-low voltage. The International Electrotechnical Commission member organizations and the UK IET (BS 7671:2008) define an ELV device or circuit as one in which the electrical potential between conductor or electrical conductor and earth (ground) does not exceed 50 V a.c. or 120 V d.c. (ripple free). EU's Low Voltage Directive applies from 50 to 1,000 V a.c. and from 75 to 1,500 V d.c.

Single event transient resistant voltage controlled oscillator circuit and phase locked loop circuit

This invention relates to the field of circuit hardening technology, and provides a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) circuit and phase-locked loop (PLL) circuit that are resistant to single-event transients. Addressing the issue that traditional three-mode relaxation oscillator (VCO) circuits are unsuitable for low-voltage conditions, especially when the power supply voltage drops to around 0.8V, this invention employs six oscillation branches coupled into three large oscillation loop circuits to improve loop gain. Furthermore, by combining bias circuits, comparators, and voting circuits for each path, the problem of increasing nonlinearity is avoided. This achieves a combination of large oscillation loops, bias circuits, and a three-mode VCO architecture, resulting in a VCO circuit that maintains high-frequency stable operation under ultra-low voltage conditions such as 0.8V, thus achieving a single-event transient resistance effect, especially at low voltages of 0.8V.
