Abstract: A protective device for protecting a CMOS circuit included in an internal circuit of an IC against overvoltage applied to a power source wiring and preventing the CMOS from being latched-up by surge voltage due to external noise during a normal operation of the IC is disclosed. An N channel MOS FET and a P channel MOS FET are arranged in parallel to each other and connected between a power source wiring and a ground wiring. Gate electrodes of the N channel and the P channel MOS FETs are connected to the ground wiring and the power source wiring, respectively. Positive overvoltage or surge voltage applied to the power source wiring is relieved by breakdown of drain junctions of both the MOS FETs.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a solid state DC power supply includes an inverter (30) having two half-bridges (32, 34) in which are provided pairs of MOSFETS (Q5-Q12) used as switching elements. An output transformer (60) and a rectifier (85) are connected to output terminals (T60). A feedback path includes switching control means (40) separate primary and secondary drive means (10, 20) supplying drive pulses to the switching means (Q5-Q12) in the inverter (30). The secondary drive means (12, 13) amplifies the pulse output of the primary drive means (11) in order to improve the switching speed of the inverter (30). Current detection is provided by a transformer (70) connected to switching (40). The primary and secondary drive means receive pulses from a pulse width modulator (IC5) the output of which is isolated by transformers (TX1, TX2). 
     In a modification, a power converter in the form of a DC power supply includes parallel MOSFET (M) and IGBT (I) switch pairs in each arm of a full wave bridge configuration. The IGBT (I) has lower conduction loss and higher switching loss than the MOSFET (M) so that, when appropriately timed driving pulses are applied, the IGBT (I) carries current in most of a conduction period and the MOSFET (M) switches off whilst a low voltage is maintained across the IGBT (I). This reduces conduction and switching losses to a minimum.

IPC: H04M11/06
Filed: 1992-04-02
Abstract: The invention relates to a digital communication system for a network operating in half-duplex mode and comprising a bus for speech and a bus for service messages. Since the latter are of considerable volume, it is advantageous to unburden the bus transporting the marshalling messages by sending a part of these messages via the speech bus and to thus ensure real-time transmission of the information. In order to be able to distinguish the two types of information on reception, the invention provides for the placing, at the level of each service message transmitted in place of a silence, of a recognition sign consisting of a code individual to the speech encoding law, and which is unobtrusive since it is unused or redundant as regards the transmission of speech. The invention provides preferentially for the use of the encoding law A which possesses not merely a redundancy, but what is more, a redundancy in the encoding of silences. The invention applies in particular to air traffic control. <IMAGE>
