发明名称 HEAT UTILIZING CIRCUIT, ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND METHOD
摘要 A method for utilizing heat includes steps: converting heat to electrical power, and converting the electrical power to a PWM voltage signal to power a function module. Obtaining an input voltage of the function module and comparing the input voltage with a reference voltage. Increasing a duty cycle of the PWM voltage signal when comparing the input voltage is grater than the reference voltage. And decreasing a duty cycle of the PWM voltage signal when comparing the input voltage is less than the reference voltage.
