    Abstract: A multi-format decoder board interfaces with a digital data network, preferably a fiber optic digital data network. Because data can be transmitted over the data network in a wide variety of formats, the decoder board of the present invention is able to decode data streams of audiovisual programming in a variety of formats so that the data can then be output by the board to various output devices including speakers, headphones, video monitors and other display devices. The data network is preferably on-board a vehicle in which the use of multiple playback devices for various audiovisual data formats would be limited by space and power constraints.

    Abstract: A power system includes a battery charge path and capacitor charge path arranged in parallel. During an inrush event, a current limiting element restricts current flow along the battery charge path to relieve battery stress. During the inrush event, current flow between the battery and load along a bypass path is also prevented by a switch element. Under steady state charging conditions, the resistance of the current limiting element decreases, thus increasing current flow between the battery and load along the battery charge path. During steady state conditions, a switch circuit controls operation of the switch element to also allow current flow between the battery and load along the bypass path. The change in the resistance of the current limiting element and/or actuation of the switch element by the switch circuit are optionally based on changes in temperature, and are passively effectuated without requiring an external control input signal.

    Abstract: An arc suppression pre-charge circuit includes a source for providing energy to a load and a main contactor selectively closed to provide energy from the source to the load, wherein the main contactor provides an alternate current path from the source to the load and bypasses a pre-charge branch of the circuit when the main contactor is closed. The pre-charge branch includes a voltage-controlled resistor and a control circuit configured to control a resistance of the voltage-controlled resistor.

    Abstract: A liquid-cooled charging system for a vehicle is configured to dissipate heat generated during charging (including fast-charging) of an electrically-powered vehicle. The liquid-cooled charging system includes a charging assembly having an interface assembly configured to support a charging plug of a charging station and an energy transfer assembly configured to electrically couple the charging station to the battery of the vehicle during charging. Components of the charging assembly and energy transfer assembly also define a fluid circuit. A coolant system of the liquid-cooled charging system is fluidly connected to the fluid circuit, allowing coolant to flow through the fluid circuit to dissipate heat from the charging assembly components during charging of the vehicle.

    Abstract: An electrical connector can include a male blade terminal protector that protects one or more male blade terminals from external objects before, during, and after coupling of the male connector to a female connector. The male blade terminal protector can be slidably disposed within a housing of the male connector and configured to retract when the female connector is coupled to the male connector and extend when the female connector is decoupled from the male connector. The male blade terminal protector is moveable from an extended position to a retracted position when a ledge is disengage from a catch by a ramped surface of a female housing and a retraction tab of the female housing is configured to move the male blade terminal protector from the retracted position to the extended position as the female connector is disengaged from the male connector.
