"Cost, efficiency, reliability, and quality of power output are important factors in nearly all power conversion applications. The architecture and system available for sale effectively balances these requirements; advancing the state of the art for power conversion," says Dean Becker, CEO of ICAP Patent Brokerage.
Key Characteristics & Benefits
The portfolio for sale includes improved technology for direct current to alternating current power converters. The problem of converting direct (DC) to alternating (AC) occurs in many instances where there is a mismatch between device operation (often DC) and available power (nearly always AC).
The assets available for sale provide a solution to this persistent issue by using pulse amplitude modulation to convert direct current to alternating current and vice versa. This unique approach relies only on software and digital silicon, which delivers economic performance and reliability in both large and small implementations.
The portfolio also discloses a simple method for converting DC to 3-phase AC with no onboard energy storage. The significance of this invention is that the design has fewer components, resulting in less cost and more dependable components; thus, longer life than traditional power converters.
The architecture and system have been proven for an array of higher reliability solar panels but can also be applied to a string of LEDs, array of lasers, or a rack of batteries in an UPS (uninterrupted power supply). This is an important portfolio for companies making inverters, UPS systems, power supplies, LED driver circuits, audio drivers, and solar panels.
