摘要:
A hand held tool about the size of a conventional screwdriver that facilitates the installation and removal of circuit board test points. A first socket member at the distal end of the tool engages the outer part of a test point and a second socket member in axial alignment with the first engages the inner part of the test point. The first socket member has an inner diameter greater than the outer diameter of the second socket member so that the second socket member is retractable into the first when the outer and inner parts of a test point are simultaneously engaged by the first and second socket members, respectively. A spring maintains the second socket member forwardly of the first socket member when the tool is not in use. The socket members are independently rotatable under the control of separate handle members.

A ballast circuit (6) comprises a rectifier circuit (8) and dual starting circuits (11, 13) that ensure ballast startup and lamp ignition regardless of input waveform half cycle. The first starting circuit comprises resonant circuit (10), and the second starting circuit includes a resistor (11). The resistor (11) comprising the second startup circuit provides a bias resistance to the second switches (72) to ensure ballast startup when an oscillating input waveform is in a negative phase.

A new ballast circuit for automotive high intensity discharge (HID) applications is disclosed. The ballast utilizes two DC/DC converters and two low frequency inverter switches. The ballast also includes an integrated high voltage ignition circuit. The positive DC/DC converter builds up a high ignition voltage in addition to raising the DC position bus. When the lamp breaks down, the DC bus voltage decreases and the ignition circuit falls inactive. The DC/DC stages are then alternately conductive to supply power to the lamp via the low frequency inverter switches. The disclosed ballast reduces the number of the switches used to four from a typical six, it utilizes independently controlled voltage source, and provides a more efficient run-up voltages waveform during pre-steady state running of the lamp.

An access control system for sensing exposure to items of interest for a person associated with a unique identifier of a fare card or ticket is disclosed. The access control system includes the unique identifier, an exposure detector and a processor. The unique identifier associated with the person that is flagged when exposure is detected. The exposure detector detects exposure to items of interest by the person. The processor is coupled to the exposure detector. The message is communicated away from the processor to a remote location when the unique identifier is flagged.

A tie down stake for anchoring small aircraft or other objects to the ground in any soil conditions and which consists of a central hub with an eyelet and a plurality of holes that serve as stake guides for directing a plurality of anchoring rods at a fixed angle downward and outward into the ground. Thus joined by the hub, the anchoring rods cooperate together to form a secure earth anchor. Also disclosed are a rod removal tool, a security cap and a packing tube for use with the tie down stake.
摘要:
In a scanning backlight for an LCD display, several backlights (101, 102, 103, 10n) provide a precisely positioned dimming pulse corresponding to a transition point of the LCD screen. The dimming pulse must be variable with video synchronization frequency and dimming duty cycle, which is a performance intensive calculation. One microcontroller performing this operation is limited in scope. By using several ballast controllers (141, 142, 143, 14n), the solution is scalable, in that it is flexible if the number of backlights (101, 102, 103, 10n) changes. Additionally, by using several controllers (141, 142, 143, 14n), added functions can be performed by the ballast controllers (141, 142, 143, 14n).
摘要:
Systems and methods are disclosed that facilitate switching a lamp ballast between DALI and analog control states as a function of control state information stored prior to the ballast being powered of and control information received by an interface circuit for the ballast circuit. A depolarization circuit is coupled to the interface circuit and ensures consistent polarity across a rectifier circuit regardless of the polarity of two control wires coupled to a miswiring protection circuit in the interface circuit. In this manner, a single interface circuit provides dual 0-10V analog and DALI control for dimming a lighting device regardless of whether a wall-mounted controller coupled to the interface circuit is an analog or a DALI type controller, thereby mitigating a need to switch out a ballast circuit coupled to the lighting device when changing between DALI and analog type controllers.

Disclosed are a lamp igniter module and method of assembling a lamp igniter module. The lamp igniter module comprises a transformer carrier, a slide-in electrical connector, a pc board, and a housing. Assembly of the lamp igniter module is accomplished by initially inserting a transformer carrier assembly within the housing and subsequently installing a slide-in electrical connector which may or may not be attached to the pc board.
