Abstract
A multi-stage driver system includes a switched mode power circuit for providing power to different electrical load(s). Multi-stage driver system includes a control block including at least one microcontroller coupled to control operations of the switched mode power circuit. Switched mode power circuit includes a high voltage region, a low voltage region, and an isolation barrier. High voltage region of the switched mode power circuit includes a switched rectifier and a switched bridge circuit configured to produce a high voltage bidirectional pulse train signal for output to an isolation barrier. Low voltage region of the switched mode power circuit includes a rectification circuit coupled to the isolation barrier and at least one switched converter circuit coupled to the rectification circuit. Control block receives real-time input signals (e.g., analog voltage reading(s)) from the high and low voltage regions and responsively produces control signals to the high and low voltage regions.
