    Abstract: A method and apparatus for detecting when the internal resistance of an oxygen sensor is too high for useful signal processing. A reference voltage is applied to the sensor signal to generate a test voltage which is compared with two different threshold voltages. The three possible magnitude states of the test voltage with respect to the thresholds cause the comparator output signals to define logical conditions which are processed by logical gating circuitry to inhibit a timing circuit which otherwise would switch fuel mixture preparation from sensor-controlled operation to open-loop, direct control after a period of time.

    Abstract: The subject of the present invention is a motor control system having a monitoring circuit for monitoring PWM control for a DC electric motor, the PWM control comprising a power end stage having at least one field effect transistor, which controls the current at the DC electric motor. The motor control system is designed to monitor the current at the DC electric motor. The motor control system detects the voltage drop across the field effect transistor and comprises a temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of the field effect transistor. Furthermore, the motor control system is designed to determine the resistance of the field effect transistor from the detected temperature thereof, and to determine the current at the DC electric motor from the resistance of the field effect transistor and from the voltage drop across the field effect transistor.

    Abstract: The present invention refers to a reduction gear and to a drive unit in which a reduction gear of this type is used. A distinctive feature of the drive unit is a particularly flat design, since the individual components are assembled around a fixed bearing rod and intermesh. The reduction gear has a drive element which executes a wobbling motion within a driven element which covers the drive element.

    Abstract: The proposed system for safe high-temperature operation of a flash memory is suitable, more particularly, for use in automotive technology, for example, for a transmission controller, the flash memory being programmed prior to use at high temperatures such that each data set in the flash memory is saved redundant. The system is provided with a temperature sensor for sensing the temperature characterizing the temperature of the flash memory, and with a control unit connected to the temperature sensor and the flash memory. The control unit, including a timer, is configured such that it receives the temperature signals from the temperature sensor and is able to establish an accumulated heat load value of the flash memory by integrating the resulting temperature values versus time. When the accumulated heat load value exceeds a predefined heat load limit and the temperature characterizing the actual temperature of the flash memory drops below a predefined temperature limit selected such that a safe clearing/programming of the flash memory is possible, the control unit checks the sets of data for consistency, it then—when it has established consistency of a data set—being able to refresh the storage locations of the flash memory which are associated with the data set and then—when it has established that one of the redundant memorized sets of data is not consistent with the one or more corresponding sets of data matching therewith—being able to repair the incorrect data set in the flash memory by reprogramming on the basis of a correct data set such that it is consistent with the correct data set.

    Abstract: An actuator for the change speed shaft of a motor vehicle automatic transmission comprises a housing, an actuating shaft rotatably mounted in the housing, an electric motor, a reversible, low-loss reduction gearing by which the rotor of the electric motor is directly coupled to the actuating shaft, a pretensioned spiral spring forming an energy storing means by which the actuating shaft may be driven into the parking position independently of the electric motor, an electronic controller for driving the electric motor as a function of control signals, a coupling means for coupling the actuating shaft to the change speed shaft of the automatic transmission. Rotation of the actuating shaft by the coupling means is converted into angles of rotation of the change speed shaft which correspond to the control signals. The actuator replaces a conventional gearshift lever on an automatic transmission.
