| 20100237847 | POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT - A power supply circuit has a first MOSFET having a body region between the source and drain. The body region is connected so as to be at the same potential as the source. Application of a suitable potential to the gate causes the MOSFET to switch to a conductive on state. The power supply circuit also has signal generation circuitry, which generates a signal indicative of a conductive state of the first MOSFET. The signal generation circuitry generates a reference voltage of a predetermined potential difference from the source potential. The power supply circuit further comprises a second MOSFET having a body region connected so as to be at the same potential as the drain of the first MOSFET, and the second gate is connected to receive the reference voltage. When the potential of the drain of the first MOSFET falls a predetermined voltage below the reference voltage the second MOSFET is switched to a conductive on state between the second source and the second drain, the signal being dependent upon the state of the second MOSFET. | 09-23-2010 |

| 20100121594 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ESTIMATION OF SOURCE IMPEDENCE ON ELECTRICAL DISTRIBUTION LINES - A device and method for dynamically determining an impedance of a network is disclosed. The device includes at least a processing system for measuring a network voltage and network current when said network is determined to be in a first state, measuring a network voltage when said network is determined to be in a second state, estimating said impedance value dependent upon said measured voltages and current, adapting said estimated impedance based on at least one prior impedance value and storing at least said adapted impedance. | 05-13-2010 |

| 20080239602 | FAST IMPEDANCE PROTECTION TECHNIQUE IMMUNE TO DYNAMIC ERRORS OF CAPACITIVE VOLTAGE TRANSFORMERS - The present invention relates to methods for providing impedance protection differentiating between in-zone and out-of-zone faults based on instantaneous, digitally derived operating and polarizing, distance comparator signals. The method uses a pair of fast orthogonal filters to derive D and Q components of the input voltages and currents. Two sets of operating and polarizing signals are derived for better speed of response under varying fault moment with respect to the peaks and zero crossings of power signals. Three stages of comparison between the operating and polarizing impedance terms are used. These comparator stages use half a cycle averaging windows, and three-quarters-of-a-cycle windows. The first stage of comparison is based on energy comparator responding to both magnitude and phase information in the signals. Stages 2 and 3 are of phase comparison type, responding mostly at the phase information and neglecting the magnitude information for better immunity to noise and signal distortions. | 10-02-2008 |
