A charging load detection circuit includes a charging circuit, a frequency generation unit, and a control unit. The control unit controls the frequency generation unit to generate a pulse voltage with a fixed first frequency and a fixed first amplitude, and the frequency generation unit provides the pulse voltage to an output terminal of the charging circuit. The control unit detects whether a load is coupled to the output terminal by detecting whether the first frequency and the first amplitude are varied, and controls connecting or disconnecting a charging path of the charging circuit according to whether the load is coupled to the output terminal.

The present disclosure provides an ink cartridge verification method, a system, a readable storage medium and a device. The method comprises: obtaining the total quantity of spray points of the ink cartridge; detecting the spray points of the ink cartridge to obtain the quantity of malfunctional spray points; when the ratio of the quantity of malfunctional spray points to the total quantity is less than or equal to a first preset ratio, determining that the ink cartridge passes verification. The malfunctional spray points are detected to obtain the ratio of the quantity of malfunctional spray points to the total quantity; when the ratio is low, it is determined that the ink cartridge passes verification, there will be no obvious influences on ink cartridge printing and the ink cartridge can be in normal use; and thus, the printing effect can be reflected after the ink cartridge is regenerated after being filled with ink.

In some examples, an electrical power system includes a solid state power converter including a first set of switches on a source side of the solid state power converter and a second set of switches on a load side of the solid state power converter. The electrical power system also includes a power source connected to the source side of the solid state power converter and also includes a differential bus connected to the load side of the solid state power converter.

Apparatus and associated methods relate to predicting failure and/or estimating remaining useful life of an air-data-probe heater. Failure is predicted or useful life is estimated based on an electrical metric of the electrical operating power provided to a resistive heating element of the air-data-probe heater. The electrical metric of the air data probe heater is one or more of: i) phase relation between voltage across the resistive heating element and leakage current, which is conducted from the resistive heating element to a conductive sheath surrounding the resistive heating element; ii) a time-domain profile of leakage current through the heating element insulation during a full power cycle; and/or iii) high-frequency components of the electrical current conducted by the resistive heating element and/or the voltage across the resistive heating element.
