Abstract
A disclosed apparatus may boost internal voltages of power supply units (PSUs) to extend hold-up times. For example, an apparatus may include a PSU and a controller. In one example, the PSU may be configured to convert power from an AC input into a direct current (DC) output and provide the DC output to a computing device. In this example, the controller may be configured to detect a loss of the AC input and extend a hold-up time of the PSU in response to detecting the loss of the AC input by modifying at least one switch included in the PSU. Various other apparatuses, systems, and methods are also disclosed.
