Being sued by Electronics consultancy

Faringdon:
Hi,
I was testing a supposedly superb and totally original, isolated  single stage  PFC'd SMPS of 150W.
(i never had any BOM or schem for it, apart from the one i reverse engineered from the PCB  itself)

But it was ridiculous. It was just a re-hash of the standard old PFC bias circuit of page 9, fig 5 , of the following...
https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/data-sheets/1248fd.pdf

The Boost PFC diode has been made synchronous, and they then have to balance the volt.seconds in the forward transformer using software....i mean , how pathetic is that?...no wonder it kept dropping out when i hit it with no load to full load transients.......
It also went unstable with regularity.

It was quite literally pathetic!

I mean, how trash an invention can someone put out there, and then sue someone for them reverse engineering it (because they sent it to me to trial out) and sending the schem to your mate to have a laugh about?

If you are being sued, were you not advised by your lawyer to no talk about the case?

But in reality this is just another made up story.  We all know you are the best PSU designer out there.
RJSV:
Yeah, sorry but a quick, 1 second check and, "Oh wait...that's THAT OP, again..."
Best you change your blog handle...again

(But I'm a bit crackpot, too)!
