Abstract
An emergency backup power source for an electrically controlled and motorized window shade unit includes an input power switch, and charge and discharge control circuit, and a supercapacitor bank. During normal operation a nominal voltage level from a main power source of the aircraft is provided directly to the window shade unit through the input power switch, and the supercapacitor bank is charged. The input voltage is monitored by the emergency backup power source, which controls the input power switch. When the input voltage drops below a threshold level, the input power switch is opened and the charge and discharge circuit operates to provide an emergency output voltage to the window shade unit from the supercapacitor bank so that the window shade can be fully opened or closed, as is required.
