1. A power supply system, comprising:

  • an inverter to generate an AC (alternating current) output based on a DC (direct current) input;

    a current sensing circuit coupled to the inverter to sense an amount of current drawn from the inverter; and

    a microcontroller coupled to the inverter and the current sensing circuit to shutdown the AC output of the inverter according to a predetermined algorithm stored within the microcontroller, in response to a detection that the amount of current drops below a predetermined threshold, wherein the predetermined algorithm and the predetermined threshold are programmed as part of programmable instructions stored in a machine-readable storage medium within the microcontroller, and wherein the programmable instructions, when executed by the microcontroller, cause the microcontroller to shutdown the AC output of the inverter according to the predetermined algorithm, in response to the detection that the amount of current drops below the predetermined threshold.
