Latest Patents
One of Maher's latest patents is titled "Component fault detection for use with a multi-phase DC-DC converter." This invention provides circuits, systems, and methods that monitor for faults within a multi-phase DC-DC converter. It includes monitoring the channels of the converter for way out of balance (WOB) conditions and detecting component faults based on these conditions. A fault can be identified if, during a predetermined period, one of the WOB conditions occurs significantly more than another. The system can shut down the DC-DC converter or output a component fault detection signal in response to a detected fault.
Another notable patent is "Way out of balance (WOB) current correction for use with a multi-phase DC-DC converter." This invention also focuses on monitoring WOB conditions within a multi-phase DC-DC converter. It adjusts the balance between currents through the channels of the converter based on detected WOB conditions, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.
