Abstract: The Power Supply Unit comprises an output providing electrical power between a positive power supply line and a common ground line and a communication line. An adjustable current generator responsive to an internal measurement signal generates an output current at the output, and a voltage source is coupled to the communication line. A current measurement unit measures a current through the communication line and generates the internal measurement signal depending on the measured current through the communication line. Specifically, the Power Supply Unit is configured to determine the voltage drop on the common ground line by applying via the voltage source two different voltages to the communication line.

Abstract: Various embodiments may relate to a synchronous rectifier including at least one rectifier cell, to which power is supplied via a secondary winding of a transformer arranged between the input connections of the synchronous rectifier. The rectifier cell comprises a bipolar main switch operated in the inverse mode, wherein an energy store is provided in the base line of the bipolar main switch, which energy store, in conjunction with an auxiliary switch which is concomitantly controlled by the relevant secondary winding for the bipolar main switch, ensures that the main switch is switched off prior to the end of the inverse phase.
