Abstract
A power device transforms input power into power for output, and includes an input unit, a power factor unit, an output unit, a power saving unit, and a control signal port. The power saving unit includes a first electronic switch, a first diode and a single-direction switch. The first electronic switch is connected between the input unit and the power factor unit. An anode of the first diode is connected to the input unit, and a cathode of the first diode is connected to the output unit. The single-direction switch is connected to the power factor unit and the output unit to block current from the output unit to the power factor unit. The control signal port controls an on/off state of the first electronic switch.
