    摘要: A method is provided for controlling regenerative braking in a hybrid electric vehicle. The vehicle includes an energy-storage device, a motor/generator configured to retard the vehicle via regenerative braking, and a controller arranged to control regenerative braking. The method includes receiving a regenerative braking request, and detecting whether the energy-storage device is between first and second predetermined states of charge. The method additionally includes retarding the vehicle via the motor/generator and directing electrical energy from regenerative braking to an energy dissipating device, if the energy-storage device is at or above the first predetermined state of charge, or at or below the second predetermined state of charge. Furthermore, the method includes retarding the vehicle via the motor/generator and directing electrical energy from regenerative braking to the energy-storage device, if the energy-storage device is between the first and second predetermined states of charge.

    摘要: A control system includes an error module, a selection module, a control module, and a hysteresis module. The error module determines an error value based on a difference between a desired position and a measured position of one of a throttle valve and an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve of a vehicle. The selection module sets a control value equal to one of the error value and zero based on a comparison of the error value and a hysteresis value. The control module generates a control signal based on the desired position and the control value and actuates the one of the throttle valve and the EGR valve using the control signal. The hysteresis module selectively varies the hysteresis value.

    摘要: A system comprises a general-purpose memory, a lockable memory, a memory management unit, and a processor. The general-purpose memory includes data for a first set of addresses. The lockable memory includes data for a second set of addresses. The memory management unit selectively writes data to one of the general-purpose memory and the lockable memory and selectively locks the lockable memory by preventing writes to the lockable memory. The processor instructs the memory management unit to unlock the lockable memory before requesting a write to one of the second set of addresses.
