Output monitoring circuit activated if a preset voltage level is exceeded. Depending on the type of circuit used, the OVP shuts the converter down, "crowbars" the faulty output or switches the converter to a different operating mode.
The use of circuitry which will protect the user's system in the event of a failure in the power supply. This circuit will limit the output voltage to a predetermined limit which, if exceeded, will cause the power supply to shut down.
A circuit which either shuts down the power supply or crowbars the output in the event of an overvoltage condition.
Function of a power supply that automatically shuts down the supply in the event of reaching a predetermined excessive voltage.
Protection of the power supply and/or connected equipment against output voltage, including the open circuit voltage.
Circuit that shuts down the power supply if the output voltage exceeds a specified limit.
A power supply feature which shuts down the supply, or crowbars or clamps the output, when its voltage exceeds a preset level.
A circuit that either shuts down the power supply or shorts the power supply to ground if an overvoltage condition occurs.
The circuit or device that prevents the output from exceeding a specific voltage level by either clamping output or shutting down the power supply. [ A B C D E F G H I J K L M R S T U V W X Y Z] - pico used to express 0.000000000001 (10 to the -12th power) times the standard unit, i.e. pF
A circuit which shuts down the battery charger in the event of an output overvoltage condition.
