Patent ID: 7808127

Claim:
A power control circuit comprising: a plurality of input terminals for receiving input power signals; a plurality of output terminals for delivering one or more output signals; one or more conditioning circuits operably coupled to receive the input power signals, wherein the conditioning circuits further comprises: one or more off-active switching modules for continuously monitoring one or more output terminals and for dynamically switching the conditioning circuits between on and off states responsive to selected output terminal voltage thresholds; a step-up regulator for dynamically conditioning input power signals from one or more of the inputs to provide one or more output signals having selected voltage and current characteristics; a step-down regulator for dynamically conditioning input power signals from one or more of the inputs to provide one or more output signals having selected voltage and current characteristics; a rectifier adapted for dynamically conditioning input power signals from one or more of the inputs to provide one or more output signals having selected voltage and current characteristics; reverse blocking circuitry for blocking reverse current at one or more of the terminals; an output regulator for dynamically regulating output signals according to selected voltage and current characteristics; one or more sensor modules adapted for dynamically monitoring one or more variable characteristics of the input signals, conditioned signals, and output signals, and for providing feedback to the conditioning circuit for use in dynamically controlling output signals; and one or more intermediate storage elements adapted to deliver a conditioned circuit signal to an output terminal; wherein the conditioning circuits are adapted for dynamically converting the input power signals into one or more conditioned signals within dynamically determined voltage and current ranges.
