ABSTRACT:
Output voltages of regulators are supplied to each load device and input to a representing-value decision logic circuit that is operated by a dedicated resident power supply. The representing-value decision logic circuit selects an output voltage that appears the most irregular of all output voltages from the regulators, and then sends a selection result to a selector. The selector selects only the output voltage from a regulator that outputs the output voltage that appears the most irregular and is selected by the representing-value decision logic circuit and then outputs the output voltage to a smoothing circuit. The direct current that has been smoothed by the smoothing circuit is quantized by an AD converter and then received by a system monitoring processor.
