1Reliability
If the feedback circuit directly monitors the output voltage in a boost circuit, then the output voltage can be stabilized, but the power consumption of the feedback circuit becomes high
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary feedback voltage generation circuit that converts the high output voltage to a lower feedback voltage through a voltage conversion mechanism. This intermediary circuit acts as a mediator between the high-voltage output and the feedback control circuit, allowing the feedback function to be maintained while operating at lower voltage levels that consume less power.
