Abstract: Control device for controlling a switch in a charging line disposed between a first power line and a second power line in a power distribution architecture. The control device includes a current level input for receiving a current measurement of the current conducted through the charging line, a voltage level input for receiving a voltage measurement of the voltage applied on the charging line. A monitor monitors the relationship between the current and voltage measurements and generates a control signal for controlling the switch in response to a coherent change in the current and voltage measurements exceeding a threshold. A control signal is not generated when a change in one of the current and voltage measurements exceeding a threshold is not associated with a coherent change in the other of the current and voltage measurements.

Abstract: An electrical connector assembly includes a connector housing defining a cavity in which an electrical busbar is disposed. The connector housing defines an opening to the cavity. The electrical connector assembly also includes a cover configured to enclose the cavity. The cover has an inlet port, an outlet port, and a coolant channel that is in fluidic communication with the inlet port and the outlet port. A portion of the cover is in intimate thermal contact with the electrical busbar.

Abstract: This document describes a cooling device for cooling a heatsink having a plurality of cooling fins provided on a heatsink base. The cooling device includes a centrifugal fan having a fan inlet and a fan outlet, a support for mounting the fan above the heatsink, and a baffle locatable between the support and the heatsink base. The baffle defines an inlet pathway for feeding air between the cooling fins over the heatsink base to the fan inlet and an outlet pathway for expelling air from the fan outlet.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a connector assembly. The connector assembly includes a connector housing adapted to engage with a corresponding counter-connector housing. A lever including a first lever arm and a second lever arm is pivotably and sealingly mounted to the connector housing. Each lever arm includes interlocking means for connecting the first lever arm to the second lever arm at a first location. The interlocking means of each of the first lever arm and the second lever arm are configured to define complementary symmetrical surfaces that interlock with one another when the lever arms are pivotably mounted to the connector housing. On mounting the lever arms to the connector housing, the lever is configured to move about the connector housing between an open state and a closed state to secure the counter-connector housing to the connector housing.

Abstract: This document describes techniques, apparatuses, and systems for a multi-layer air waveguide with layer-to-layer connections. Each pre-formed layer of the air waveguide is attached to at least one other pre-formed layer by a mechanical interface. The mechanical interface may be a stud-based interface, a snap fastener-based interface, a ball-and-socket based interface, or a pressure contact interface utilizing irregular roughed surfaces of each pre-formed layer. The mechanical interfaces of the pre-formed layers structurally hold the air waveguide together and electrically couple all of the pre-formed layers. In this manner, the cost of manufacturing the air waveguide antennas may be less expensive than previous manufacturing processes.

Abstract: This document describes waveguides that use a combination of air dielectric filled channels and non-air dielectric filled channels to obtain beneficial attributes of both air and dielectric waveguides. EM energy loss inside the waveguide compares to a traditional air waveguide. However, with a smaller size than a comparable air waveguide, the example waveguide can occupy less area of a chip or package than a comparable air waveguide of a traditional design. The waveguide has a routing portion with hollow channels filled with an air dielectric. Radiation channels corresponding to each of the hollow channels are loaded with a non-air dielectric. A surface of each of the radiation channels allows EM energy to escape the non-air dielectric. The described waveguide may be particularly advantageous for use in an automotive context, for example, detecting objects in a roadway in a travel path of a vehicle.
