Abstract
An Intelligent Power Supply (IPS) can operate on either AC or DC input power. If AC power is available, the system always uses AC power. The power supplies use AC power first and then switch to DC power automatically if AC power fails or is not present. When the AC power returns alive, the DC power source will convert to AC again. Such an IPS will consume less energy and be more cost effective in the industry. The development of an IPS needs a new version of the firmware for a universal interface of SAP (Systems, Applications, and Products) in data processing. The new version needs to provide a programming interface between an IPS and the computer. In this paper, the programming interface, iPort/AFM, is used to connect I2C host adapter with ASCII Fast Mode control. The iPort/AFM works with Windows or non-Windows based host computers. It supports both standard (100Kbps) and fast (400Kbps) Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) bus speeds with the I2C Interrupt signal. Controlled with a simple ASCII command interface, this adapter supports RS-232 with baud rates up to 115.2K/sec. It includes a high performance processor for improved throughput with low overhead. Moreover, the proposed interface can be used in DOS, UNIX, SGI, Windows, and Linux. The end product in industrial applications includes an adapter unit, software, cables, and a global power supply

Continuous Overvoltage Characteristics of Surge Protected Power Strips

Volume 5 Issue 4 September - November 2017 Research Paper Continuous Overvoltage Characteristics of Surge Protected Power Strips Cengiz Polat* Assistant Professor, Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Istanbul University, Istanbul, Turkey. Uzunoglu, C. P. (2017). Continuous Over Voltage Characteristics of Surge Protected Power Strips.  i-manager’s Journal on Circuits and Systems,  5(4), 1-7.  https://doi.org/10.26634/jcir.5.4.13938 Abstract Increasing applications of constantly developing electronic devices require delicate voltage and current protection. Although the electrical network is monitored continuously, undesired over currents and over voltages may occur on the distribution system due to failures. Most of the electronic switch gear is connected via surge protected power strips in indoor applications, where current protection is vital. Surge protected power strips are usually manufactured based on Metal Oxide Varistors (MOVs) ...

Reduced Wirelength-Based Low Power Performance of Multibit Flip-Flop

Volume 1 Issue 4 September - November 2013 Research Paper Reduced Wirelength-Based Low Power Performance of Multibit Flip-Flop M.Karthick*, S. Vijayakumar** *PG Scholar, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, Paavai Engineering College, Namakkal, India. **Associate Professor, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, Paavai Engineering College, Namakkal, India.

In this paper, to design a number of D-flip flop performing at the same time, the given clock signal is reduced using multi bit flip-flop. The multi bit flip flop is mainly used to improve the clock power for the given common clock signal and to reduce the switching power. This method is p...

A Review on Control strategies for LFC in Deregulated Scenario

Volume 1 Issue 1 December - February 2013 Review Paper A Review on Control strategies for LFC in Deregulated Scenario T. Anilkumar*, N. Venkata ramana** * Associate Professor, EEE Department, ACE Engineering College, Ghatkesar, Hyderabad, AP, India. ** Professor and Head of Deportment, EEE Department, JNTU Mantini, AP, India.

A Review On Control Strategies For LFC In Deregulated Scenario.  i-manager’s Journal on Circuits and Systems , 1(1), 27-36.  https://doi.org/10.26634/jcir.1.1.2197 Abstract In power system studies, Load frequency control is an important issue to supply sufficient and reliable electric power with good quality. The main objective of LFC is to maintain load frequency and tie-line power flow within permissible limits by adjusting megawatt output of LFC generators, so as to accommodate fluctuating load demands. This paper presents a brief review of different control techniques to researchers on design...
