Abstract:
The invention relates to an arrangement and a method performing data exchange between various integrated circuits, IC, (3,4,5,6,7) in an automotive control system wherein the data are exchanged by a bus and has the object to enable ASIL C/D system coverage and to tie various ICs (clocks, regulators, memory interfaces, sensor signal conditioners, power management ICs etc.) This is solved the data are exchanged by a bus being ASIL C/D compliant and forming a common protocol to exchange information among the integrated circuits (3,4,5,6,7). The method is solved by functions implemented within the bus as setting the frequency of operation; arbitrating roles of the integrated circuits as master or slave device; checking integrity of exchanged data; frame repetition; detecting bus stuck-at failure modes; filtering or denouncing failures and warnings from peripheral devices; detecting remote out of specification local clock; and monitoring and predicting system reliability and profiling maintenance events.
Abstract:
An inductive wireless power transfer device comprises a transmitter that comprises a transmit coil configured to generate a wireless power signal to a coupling region in response to an input voltage, and a modulator configured to modulate the wireless power signal and encode data with the wireless power signal to establish a back-channel communication link from the transmitter to a receiver. An inductive wireless power receiving device comprises a receiver that comprises a receive coil configured to generate a time varying signal in response to receiving a modulated wireless power signal from a transmitter in a coupling region, and a demodulator configured to demodulate the modulated wireless power signal from an established back-channel communication link from the transmitter to a receiver. Related inductive wireless power transfer systems and methods for back-channel communication from the transmitter to the receiver of an inductive wireless power transfer system are disclosed.
Abstract:
In accordance with aspects of the present invention, a first wireless power enabled device includes a transceiver and control logic. The transceiver includes a plurality of switches coupled in a full-bridge configuration with a resonant tank circuit. The control logic is configured to detect a presence of a second wireless power enabled device, establish a trusted relationship with the second wireless power enabled device, determine an operating mode of the first wireless power enabled device selected from a transmit mode or a receive mode, and drive the plurality of switches to operate the resonant tank circuit in the determined operating mode. The first wireless power enabled device may further include a memory that stores a copy of a first key associated with the first wireless power enabled device and a copy of a second key associated with the second wireless power enabled device.
